From childhood to my twenties, I always thought that life would calm down as I aged. The notion of stability seemed like an inevitable destination, a place where chaos would finally subside, allowing for a serene and predictable existence.

As an adult, however, I’ve learned that things just change. Chaos, it turns out, is a constant companion, weaving its way through the fabric of our lives regardless of our age or circumstance.

“A Framed Winter Scene”

My journey through life has been marked by shifts in environment and perspective, mirroring the transition from childhood optimism to the complexity of adulthood.

“A Framed Summer Scene”

In my early years, the world seemed full of promise and potential, every day a new adventure waiting to unfold. I envisioned a future where all the pieces of the puzzle would fall into place, creating a clear and orderly picture of what life was meant to be. 

“Around The Corner”

But as I grew older, I realized that the puzzle pieces are perpetually shifting, forming new patterns that are often unpredictable and sometimes chaotic.

“Tall Boy”

The moments I’m drawn to in my photography often reflect the stillness that I crave amidst this perpetual motion. They are glimpses of tranquility, pockets of calm that stand in stark contrast to the turbulence of everyday life.

“Grimace”

These images capture the essence of what I seek: a pause, a breath, a moment of clarity in an ever-changing world. They are my way of anchoring myself, of finding a semblance of stability in the midst of chaos.

“Peeling The Paint Right Off The Walls”

Each photograph in the series is a testament to the passage of time and the inevitable transformation that comes with it. What I capture are not just snapshots of a particular moment; they are reflections of the journey, each telling a story of change and continuity.

“Big Hurt”

Whether it’s the soft light of dawn breaking over a still landscape or the quiet resilience of an urban scene, these images remind me that while the world around us may alter dramatically, certain elements remain constant.

“This Use To Be My Playground”

These constants—our roots, our shared experiences, our intrinsic need for connection—anchor us in a world that is in constant flux. They are the touchstones that we return to, the familiar threads that run through the tapestry of our lives.

“Baggage”

In my work, I strive to highlight these enduring elements, to show that even amidst the most profound changes, there is something stable and unchanging that we can hold onto.

“A Dark Night”

The series, "When I Grow Up I'll Be Stable," is both a reflection of my personal journey and a broader commentary on the human experience.

“A New Happiness”

It speaks to the universal quest for stability and the realization that stability is not a fixed point but a dynamic state.

“Renovations”

It’s about finding peace in the knowledge that life is ever-changing and that true stability comes from within—from our ability to adapt, to find stillness in motion, and to embrace the chaos as a natural part of our existence.

“Learning The Tools”

In capturing these moments, I hope to convey a sense of hope and resilience. While the future may be uncertain and the path forward unclear, there is beauty to be found in the journey itself.

“Calm Place”

Through my lens, I invite you to see the world as I do: a place of constant transformation where, amidst the turmoil, moments of stability and peace can always be found.
