From the beginning “My Friends And Their Plants” was just an idea - an idea to somehow incorporate, well, my friends and their plants. Though it eventually took final form in a self published book and gallery release, the initial idea was created when searching for my latest passion project. The plan was simple: invite my friends over, ask them to bring a plant, and tell me a story about it.
When I began I wasn’t sure how the project would take form. I had set up a small studio space in the corner of my apartment and over the next few months the project grew (pun intended) into something much larger. As word of mouth spread, more friends were made and photographed for the series - capturing beautiful portraits and some incredible stories. It was during the process of the project that the idea of a book came about and seemed to be a fitting exposition.
