The best birthday with my favorite people ☺️☺️ Among my favorite sets of photos to ever shoot! Thank you @disiacdance for having me back again 😍 If you’re curious about how I made these, I’ve posted a story on my process from start to finish. As a photographer who didn’t get an Instagram until many years later, I’ve never quite figured out a way to fully embrace the platform. Photography has always been meaningful to me not because of aesthetics but because of the wonderful and very real conversations and friendships that arise because of it. Instagram, to me, has always felt a bit of the opposite. But hopefully, with these longer form stories, I’ll be able to find a happy medium, and share a bit more about how photography has brought so much happiness into my life and encourage others to try it in their lives too! Look out for many more behind-the-scenes, philosophical, and biographical posts soon! This Friday at 8pm, check these talented people out :) Thanks for having me photograph @daebakbrown ! Graphics by the wonderful @anne_x_gu Three generations of dn (- @amandagkm) Congrats @nyenver, @seoyoungh_ , and the rest of your team on an incredible day! Life updates! -I'm thriving in Providence, VFA is wonderful and work is even better. Come visit anytime! -I've started to officially freelance as a wedding photographer! hmu for some great photos that won't break the bank -Just because I'm out of Princeton doesn't mean I've stopped doing publicity for dance groups :') Some things never change Thanks @mezcla_latindance for having me!! Thanks @puballet for giving me a chance to relive my Princeton photo days :’) Check out their show next Wednesday and Thursday 12/12-13 if you’re on campus! Photo shoot for @weardiop a 2016 VFA fellow-founded company. They make shirts inspired by textiles from the African diaspora and they’re gorgeous! tl;dr: moving to Providence for the next two years to work as an electrical engineer for loftllc.com, and if you graduated/are graduating 2016-2019 you should check out @venture4america , apps are now open :) Just finished up an incredible month in Detroit at Training Camp for Venture for America! VFA is creating economic opportunity in American cities by mobilizing the next generation of entrepreneurs and equipping them with the skills and resources they need to create jobs. Spending the past month in Detroit, a city experiencing growth and opportunity while struggling with a past (and present) of inequality and injustice, has given me such new clarity on living out a career not just focused on my work as an engineer but also my life with the immediate community around me and my role in helping to make the tech industry more inclusive, diverse, and thoughtful as a whole. Yes, we learned hard skills from the likes of McKinsey and IDEO and First Round, but we also heard from people like Arlan Hamilton, who founded @backstagecapital which invests in founders of color at a rate of 80% when the rest of the industry is at 1%, Jamon Jordan, who lead a black history tour of Detroit and contextualized the growth we see downtown with the blight still present in the suburbs, or other speakers from organizations big and small who strove to succeed as entrepreneurs while retaining their intense dedication to local communities and understanding the ramifications of their work to those less privileged. I’ve been so fortunate to have this experience, and to be surrounded by 175 other incredibly ambitious yet grounded Fellows, and so if you have any interest at all in the program please don’t hesitate to reach out :) 7+8 / 8, Kyoto + Tokyo. Cheers to the trip of a lifetime with the best roommates! 6/8 5/8 4/8 3/8 2/8 Roomie grad trip 1/8 I’m hosting photo workshops this weekend in Frist!
