Wander Wonder
When you're connected to your photographic self, the work can’t help but look like you. Then, the real thrill is the highly personal experience that occurs before the exposure is made. It's that memory that can never be shared in the final image. A camera in your hand is a license to see and it begs you to pay attention. The moment is there, and then it's gone forever. Try as we may to capture it, we can capture only the memory of it, the ghost of it. With this comes a wave of melancholy, sometimes subtle, sometimes not so subtle, which is also momentary. I made these photographs to illuminate moments that held meaning for me, and the memories that they left behind.
