My first year at SUNY Binghamton, emotions mixed with a confused bath of new relationships, and responsibility. In 2020, the pandemic plagued people with a feeling of isolation which makes these images ring, tainted by a hollow interior. When faced with change, people question themselves.
It is easy to put up walls and conceal emotions. It is difficult to accept the changing tide within yourself. Looking back upon personal growth with new perspective can feel stale. What you could have been, if only you could go back and relive the moment without the very real limitations of the human experience. I want you to forgive yourself for not always taking the opportunity. The anxiety and pain which guide each part of life take up space, leaving less to accomplish and share with those you love.
Musical friends create musical events, which create ideal opportunities for capturing other artists. Most photos in this section were taken at a show my long time friends Signal Coast were playing in. Both in and around the venue, people drank and chatted about life, music, love, and performances happening live. Everyone looked so beautiful that night, it was one of the days in which nothing important happened before the sun went down. Some of my favorite memories are of concerts and of the people who love music. Together it makes memories worth collecting, and to experience art with others makes life worth living.
