Blue














I put this series of Polaroids together for a submission, and this is the statement that goes with it:

Blue

From the desert sky of Colorado to the deteriorating landmarks of New Orleans and Coney Island, Blue is the idea of fluidity, openness, and impermanence. It is a personal documentation of nostalgia and loss. Having lived numerous places in my life and moving countless times in each place, I have acquired a taste for travel and a longing for home. These images, shot with my Spectra Polaroid camera, soon to become a thing of the past, take on the same attributes of nomadic dreams and childhood nostalgia.

Peach Tartes, Coney Island








This was an amazing Burlesque show. It was on June 27th, as part of Burlesque on the Beach which happens every Thursday and Friday. Beautiful girls, beach, freaks, and beer. What more could a girl ask for?



A great friend and great writer Linnea Covington (www.linneacovington.com) wrote about it for the NY Press:
