Washington D.C. | Fuji 400H | Shooting Film
These images bring back the humid embrace of summer, the ninety-some degrees weather and array of sunshine and rain storms. It’s been three months since I took these film images in Washington D.C.

Inspiration | My Biggest Failure
This is not a fairy tale. I can remember being truly lost, stuck in that quarter life crisis, having graduated from a prestigious university with a made-up degree (I designed my own major in Asian American studies and documentary studies) and no idea what to do next. I sat at a little computer desk whittling…
