Summertime is about exploring with your friends. As a photographer it means documenting every last detail of those explorations.

The internet is weird. I’ve taken so many images lately that I’ve kept ahold of pretty tightly. Why? Zines? Photo shows? Just to keep them off of the internet? It’s a bizarre spot to be. Wanting your stuff to be seen but not by too many people, not by certain people, but by certain *other* people.

You find that there are politics involved in most every scene there is.

I keep coming back to the fact that I just want to take photographs that people enjoy looking at. I’d love to show them to everyone all the time. I guess what I’m saying is my willpower is shit.
