The Story · 2011 → Now

I graduated DePaul in the fall of 2011. Nine weeks later I was standing on NHL ice with a camera. I never really put it down.

Philosophy

How the work gets made

P–01Sun-faded, not distressed

Color and texture feel weathered by light and salt, never grunge. Warmth over wear.

P–02Club, not clique

Insignia, roundels, and index numbers give the archive structure and belonging, with open doors.

P–03The work leads

The system frames images; it never competes with them. Generous whitespace, hairline rules, quiet type.
