when words won’t

Drawing on the photo-ethnographic tradition of researchers like Bourgois & Schonberg (Righteous Dopefiend 2009), CB hopes to creature more affective narratives, harnessing the power of photography and reflexive social engagement. While CB’s certification as an Adobe Certified Associate, means they have the skills and experience necessary to create impactful stories.

From candid snapshots of everyday life to bold portraiture that reveals the ineffable spirit of subjects, photography weaves into other forms of thick description to help creature robust windows into the world around us. CB’s personal photography focuses on natural landscapes and motifs and explores a variety of technologies across the lenticular spectrum.
