Hey, friends! I just passed the 1:00a.m. threshold, and I’m exercising this commitment to make sure I post here on Hive every day. Things are good right now. Like, really good.

These pictures will last so much longer. The desert shot is such a beautiful representation of Mexican women and I am so very proud of it. Honored to be the one that captured such a fierce Latina.
I’m pretty worn down. Tonight was mentally, emotionally and creatively exhausting. I have a big project coming up for
