Childerness: Bella and Ali

 I look at these two and pray that their hearts will always remain young. This is what I learned from my simple afternoon, photographing with these two cuties.

I try to learn something new whenever I make pictures. It doesn't usually happen but when it does, the pictures are better, more personal. In this case, I had the chance of photographing my little identical twin cousins, Bella and Ali. All of the negativity in the world bombards our awareness to remember who we really are. I look at these two and pray that their hearts will always remain young. This is what I learned from my simple afternoon with these two cuties.

A Time Lapse of the Photo Essay Sequence for "Die and Let Die"

A time lapse video of putting together a photo essay that takes place at St. Louis Cemetery #1 in New Orleans, LA.

This is me sequencing a photo essay with a working title of "Die and Let Die" (it was scribbled on the side of a tomb) about spooky humans haunting the dead of St. Louis Cemetery #1 in New Orleans. It's part dark humor and part sincere commentary.

I've posted several blogs dedicated to the process of photographing this series. The project changed during its course and has now become two distinct collections. The rest of the posts with plenty of photos inside, can be found HERE.
