ON FILM | Summer 2018

I take a really long time to get through a roll of film— sometimes years. Yes.

So I’m pretty pumped that I managed to finish an entire roll and have it developed (what?!) within a month span. Yes! That’s a new record for me, so I thought I would share a small, random assortment of moments between end of July to end of August.

Disclaimer: Some (ok, most) of these shots are ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. That’s ok, I’m just glad I made an attempt and pressed the button.

Impromptu stroll in Washington Square Park with Manuela and Ninja. I love when friends work in the neighborhood.

The drive out east. I live for these moments during summertime in New York—just get me to the ocean.

KARMA ROCK'S "Double Life"

A big congrats to @karmarocknyc for releasing his first single, "Double Life." And congrats to @manuelarana for producing, directing, and editing the official music video.

I am inspired by you both— to build upon your own creative callings and ideas and turn them into something real and tangible is one thing, but to put it out there for anyone and everyone to access is another level. I know that takes a whole lot of heart and a whole lot of guts— again, congratulations! Thanks for having me jump in to assist with the video— I probably enjoyed the lighting mixer board more than I should have:)  Also, Trisha, I love you— you are so fab.
