Best Friends

Chewy, my dog and best friend, holds a special place in my life, and our bond runs deeper than most dogs and their owners. When my brother and sister-in-law's dogs had a litter of puppies, I initially tried to distance myself, knowing I would get attached. However, Chewy was different, and a week before the puppies were ready for their forever homes, my brother gave me the okay to keep him. Since then, we have been inseparable. This connection has influenced my recent photography series, where I shifted my approach from a run-and-gun style to prioritizing thoughtful framing and lighting, capturing the essence of everyday life with each press of the shutter. The lessons I've learned from this project has set a new standard for my work, motivating me to continually push boundaries, refine my craft, and strive for excellence in every project I undertake.
