Bliss

Bliss is a meditation upon those infrequent moments of clarity when we stand at a turning point in life and must choose whether to continue on a destructive path or to change direction, no matter how difficult the new terrain. Our journey has power; to either keep us shackled to our past, or to provide the impetus to transform and transcend. My intention is to communicate the cognitive dissonance between the suburban ambitions that I was aspiring to - but instead, I found myself on a search for authenticity and meaning. I have created these photographs on location with subtle studio lighting and a slow shutter speed in an attempt to convey how time seems to slow down and even stop during life’s profound moments.
