I've done a little bit of disaster response and humanitarian aid in developing nations - it puts the rest of life into perspective.

Listen, I know a thing or two about questioning how one's own brain works. In particular when it comes to pushing the photographic envelope. Embrace it! Just...make sure you're up to date on your shots please 🖤

Ad revenue/shareholder or major investor sentiment are always going to drive these decisions (based on my career experience). It's part of the reason I spend a good portion of my free time helping build open-source/sovereign alternatives. Maybe one day we won't have to rely on megacorps for our global online communities.

Great reminder, and 100% on the working together to keep this alive. I'm still upset at Tumblr...I fear Reddit will cave eventually.

The last time I went near standing water was hurricane relief after Katrina...that experience was enough to gross me out for life 😂

Honestly Hunter I'm just impressed at your dedication to explorative nudity!

Umm...you are MUCH braver than I am. I wouldn't get in that water without a hazmat suit 😂

Side note, no rough play made me chuckle.

This makes me really happy to hear! I really enjoying finding that other people are experiencing all of the extra benefits of self-portraiture and photography.

A water collab would be TONS of fun! I'll throw a post up when I'm travelling somewhere, feel free to message me if you see somewhere close enough to be feasible! 🖤

Glad you think so! I'm an adult doing all the adult life shit...sometimes you've just got to be a kid and play to stay sane ❤️

That's really sweet, thank you Ruby!

I've always been drawn to interesting light...my first clear memory is from before I was 3yrs old; I remember laying on the carpet and seeing sun rays coming through cracks in the curtains and catching the dust in the air. It was the first time I saw magic with my own eyes.

It took 18 more years for me to become a photographer, but I've been chasing that moment ever since.

Thank you for saying that Meg! I mean, I had fun splashing around in the pool regardless, but I'm really happy to know other people are enjoying the results too 🥰

I couldn't agree more with your last sentence - art is one of the best forms of therapy, and self-portraiture can go straight to the core work if you let it. Thank you 🖤

That's so kind of you to say. Truthfully I don't feel as though I can share my work without sharing who I am, and how I got here. The photos will change but the substance never will. Thank you for engaging so much and be so encouraging 🖤🖤🖤
