Magazine Covers

The photography studio is not a natural habitat for me. I’ve always had a journalistic impulse. I love the life of the street. I’m drawn to social documentary projects that tell people’s stories. I had planned to work on all of that in 2020.

And then COVID-19 had another idea. Stuck in home isolation, the photography studio started to look better. I’d been flipping through my mom’s large pile of magazine subscriptions in late 2018 and thought that it would be interesting to perform some of those magazine cover photographs.

I didn’t realize it would take a global pandemic for me to start reperforming Kim Kardashian magazine covers. But here we are.
