“Amor Fati” (Self portrait) “Nietzsche was the one who did the job for me. At a certain moment in his life, the idea came to him of what he called ‘the love of your fate.’ Whatever your fate is, whatever the hell happens, you say, ‘This is what I need.’ It may look like a wreck, but go at it as though it were an opportunity, a challenge. If you bring love to that moment—not discouragement—you will find the strength is there. Any disaster that you can survive is an improvement in your character, your stature, and your life. What a privilege! This is when the spontaneity of your own nature will have a chance to flow. "Then, when looking back at your life, you will see that the moments which seemed to be great failures followed by wreckage were the incidents that shaped the life you have now. You’ll see that this is really true. Nothing can happen to you that is not positive. Even though it looks and feels at the moment like a negative crisis, it is not. The crisis throws you back, and when you are required to exhibit strength, it comes.” From "A Joseph Campbell Companion: Reflections on the Art of Living"

“Make sure they play my theme song / I guess daisies will have to do / Just get me to New Orleans / And paint shadows on the pews” From my Tom Waits project and also my portfolio with Vogue Italia on PhotoVogue.

Chris at The Glass Asylum. Still one of my favorite environmental portraits that I’ve made. It was fast and physically demanding and I tore something in my knee as I was shooting this series, it was worth it though. @theglassasylum

A date with headless Marcus Aurelius today as I write and sort some things out. Always great to sit with him and meditate on his...Meditations.

Alison and Aaron. ❤️

I love my studio. It’s a place where magic truly does happen on a deep level. Between clients going through the process of a boudoir shoot and transforming their relationship with their own body and self image and embracing themselves as the goddesses they are, and when I have time to work on art pieces and let my unconscious mind out to play....it’s a space of miraculous beauty and energy. I also really love my tattoo of Athena by @skyisstrange
