Every shot connected with a song

  • Collage Montage

    September 1, 2023 by

    Lately, I haven’t photographed. Lately, I’ve been learning to adapt. Instead of capturing a new landscape or a different type of subject, I’ve been working with photos I photographed back in 2021 and 2022. Unintentionally, I have withheld so many fun and messy shots of myself and my close friends. Since these photos have just… Read more

  • Everything Must go – Estate sale

    April 8, 2023 by

    Sometimes you just want to restart. Looking for ways to get rid of somethings. Thrilling or simple. Everything must go. Whether it takes all day or all night. Tyler, the creator in “Dogtooth” music video Tyler, the creator released 7 tracks in his deluxe album CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST: THE ESTATE SALE. In… Read more

  • Spell #6 – Part Time

    March 26, 2023 by

    What was I doing here? What was the meaning of this trip? Was I just roaming around in a drug frenzy of some kind? Or had I really come out here to Las Vegas to work on a story? Who are these people, these faces? Where do they come from? Fear and Loathing in Las… Read more

  • “Snow on Red Rock” a playlist

    November 13, 2022 by

    I’ve been wanting to get a telephoto lens to get great shots of sections of the rainbow mountains in the red rock conservancy area. I’ve been working and living at red rock for a while now. The morning glow in the area is amazing. The way light lays on the red and white sandstone is… Read more

  • A Loving Touch – Keith Mansfield

    October 30, 2022 by

    Fear and shame have kept me from writing and posting on this website. Filling my cup and cheering to the future. Here’s a song I have been listening to for a while. No strong connection between the shot and the song. Just felt that it fit. I took this photo at The Great Basin National… Read more

  • A Long Slow Little Wave/ Citizen, an Activity – Loving

    February 23, 2022 by

    Catching sunsets on the west coast is far better than on the east coast. The southwest has been my home for the last year and a half. I have lived in AZ for most of it as well as a summer in Colorado. Since leaving NC I have traveled to many national parks, multiple national… Read more

  • Rolled up – Benny sings ft Mac Demarco

    August 14, 2021 by

    I thought I had a lot to say, but I don’t. Turning 25 has let me feel my mortality as well as my fragility. Lately injuries have stopped me from doing what I want to do. I’m only getting older and I have to weigh the risks more often than I did before. Aside from… Read more

  • Oshcokota – Chancho En Piedra

    May 25, 2021 by

    Oshcokota was shown to me by my brother JuanDi. I guess if I had to pick a song for the past few moments in my life it would have to be this one. I’ve listen to it in many different places such as Tucson, Flagstaff, San Francisco and Denver. I love the chords that the… Read more

  • Tucson Nostalgia

    March 23, 2021 by

    My friend Rachel Gravens and I decided to collaborate on a playlist photo stream. I felt that it would be good practice to challenge my routine photo-taking-procedure. I normally photograph whatever I feel like photographing and then I study the image. As a thought or idea rolls along I then glue a song to the… Read more

  • Gunfighter Ballads And Trail Songs – Marty Robbins

    December 15, 2020 by

    Cowboy dreams These images were taken from Arizona’s Petrified Forest National Park. I previously went out with some friends to check out the park and to take some photos. Coincidentally, my crew and I were assigned to work at PEFO a few weeks later. Our job was to work with the NPS to finish fencing… Read more

  • 12.38 – Childish Gambino (feat. 21 Savage, Ink & Kadhja Bonet)

    November 11, 2020 by

    Constant change is something I’ve been wanting to pursue. I think new experiences are fun because of their novelty, but what happens when it’s not new anymore? I fear that I will slip into old habits if I don’t take a chance on change. I was very happy that I was able to vote this… Read more

  • (Sittin’ On) the Dock of the Bay – Otis Redding

    November 2, 2020 by

    This will pass You call it running, I call it escaping Accepting the worse in a situation and continuing to do it is to me a very difficult and mentally challenging. I’ve been working outdoors for weeks at a time; sunrise to sunset. My work is mentally taxing and physically demanding -it can really suck… Read more

  • $$$ – Daniela Andrade

    October 4, 2020 by

    Everybody is motivated by different things. A life lived for wealth or professional status is attractive to those who have suffered from the lack thereof or maybe to those who feel that they will feel satisfaction if they achieve their monetary goals. But I don’t really know. People have their personal reasons for what they… Read more

  • Veins – Palace

    October 3, 2020 by

    A friend of mine played Veins one night while we were driving out of the Coconino Forest. She said this was one of her favorite sad/mellow songs. She has great taste in music so I had a feeling that I would like it. You’re mine, my northern star Expectations come from what you want to… Read more

  • Whats the use -Mac Miller

    September 13, 2020 by

    Layers of rock show the geological history of an area. Each layer was deposited one after another. That is called the law of superposition. After geological events occur the rock layers are exposed by forces that erode the rock. In the case of a canyon like Palo Duro Texas State Park, running water carved out… Read more

  • Call it Fate, Call it Karma – The Strokes

    August 10, 2020 by

    “Close the door…not all the way” This song has something sinister and peaceful about it all at once. The slow western melody makes me think of rebirth. Or as if you are peering through a crack to see the whole truth. Going to a place where nobody knows you is challenging. The familiarity you had… Read more

  • Rememory – Donnie Trumpet & The Social Experiment

    July 31, 2020 by

    Rememory, from what I understand is when you remember a memory you forgot you had. I really don’t have much to say about this idea(embarrassingly enough)- it’s really more about this song. The collaborative album, Surf, by Donnie Trumpet and the social experiment came out in 2015. I really connected to that album at the… Read more

  • Football Head – Flamingosis

    July 25, 2020 by

    Endings are important to any story. If there is a beginning to anything then you know it will end. duh That’s the cycle that we experience in life. Is it sad? Well, yeah it can be, but it’s normal. It’s archetypal to resolve a story in the best interest of the characters, or the theme… Read more

  • Iffy – Caamp

    July 17, 2020 by

    Live music performances are very special. I think it is great to see musical artists perform right in front of you. If you look real close you can see the passion they hold inside released in their strum or vocals(or any other type of instrument action). Not only do you see individuals but you see… Read more

  • Good morning heartache – Billie Holiday

    July 15, 2020 by

    Heartbreak can weigh heavily on your mind. It can brood in your thoughts and dreams. I can remember a time when I would constantly wake up from a dream where my love was still here. My room would be dark and silent. The wee small hours of the night were the hardest to get through.… Read more

  • A Taste of Honey (Live) – Paul Desmond

    July 11, 2020 by

    I want to say that Black lives matter. Police brutality has gone on for far too long. Systematic racism is real and racism is still prevalent in today in right now. I believe in BLM and the reform of most government systems that perpetuate the oppression of BIPOC. With the Covid pandemic and the injustices… Read more

  • “Complicated – Mac Miller”

    April 14, 2020 by

    This is Ace at crowders state park. Ace is in his golden years but his age wont stop him from hiking mountains with his owner Jesus. “…Does it always gotta, does it always gotta Gotta be so complicated? Well, I’m way too young to be gettin’ old” Ace was laying down underneath the shade when… Read more

  • Glitter – Tyler, the Creator

    April 12, 2020 by

    Favorite lines “You’ve been on my mind (How ya feel?) I’m losing my mind because I hope that we can be more than just friends” “When I see you my heart beat changes tempo Yeah, simple, that’s what I want but I can’t That’s who you are but I ain’t (how ya feel?)” I have… Read more

  • Antes De Morir – LosPetitFellas

    March 9, 2020 by

    October 2019 Taken at Crowders Mountain’s radio tower fall 2019 How many times have I been up here? a lot. Crowders mountain state park has been a very popular state park in the greater Charlotte area for many years now. The trails are very accessible and so are the approaches for climbing. This state park… Read more

  • Soniatl – Chicano Batman

    March 3, 2020 by

    My days in Charlotte are coming to an end. I’m heading out west with my headphones on. This photo was shot at McDowel Nature Preserve near Lake Wylie.

  • “Out of Gas” – Modest Mouse

    January 29, 2020 by

    “Out of gas, out of road, out of car…” I was supposed to post b&w shots, but I just couldn’t. I couldn’t wash the color out of these shots because of the nice sunset lighting I was getting during that evening. I looked at my first shot of the quartzite and I instantly thought of… Read more

  • Everytime We Say Goodbye – John Coltrane

    November 24, 2019 by

    I’ve boarded the Coltrane again. Lately I have been listening to some Jazz records that I love. I’ve got a hunch it’s because of the holidays coming up. Oh, and probably because of the cold we are experiencing in Charlotte. John C and his quartet remind me of cold days. That’s why I chose this… Read more
