The Sunday after WONDER WANDER 2023, magic happened at sunset on the shores of a river running the sonoran desert.
A merry band of creatives ran four hundred feet of extension cord from the hybrid battery of a Prius to a secluded cove to record my buddy Matthew (also known as 2dreamagain and the brilliant groove man behind Between2Clouds) DJing a dreamy house music set as we captured the scene on camera.
Fellow Phoenician and friend Kevin Ufnal directed and edited. I flew drone. Cheyenne Weston ran camera and shot groovy portraits on film.
The act of creation was wildly fun and beautiful. The covert setup, soaking in nature, and grooving as we immortalized on camera a friend laying the tracks of his moving art had me feeling so vibrant and alive.
Building a real estate photography company over the past few years has continued to expand my creative pallet. Writing, photography, videography, spoken word, web design, dance, symbol, ritual, gathering… on and on it grows! Creativity need not be confined to one medium and feels better unbound, bleeding together and running all over the canvas of life itself.
