Last fall, Kayla Stewart and I headed for the cane fields of South Louisiana to shoot an upcoming piece with June & Angela Provost. It’ll be another couple months until it’s published, but here are a few film outtakes in the meantime. #filmphotography #blackfoodfolks

Loved spending time in Louisiana with clay williams for Food & Wine to learn more about the incredible Provost family, and traversing through Java for Travel + Leisure after being away from Indonesia for five years. Really excited to have both stories out in the world!
