Just Between Us

Just Between Us” is a visual narrative exploring modern relationships between men and women, as well as our innate yearnings to engage one another romantically. This work pulls on the threads tying young couples together, exposing many intricacies such as romance, gender roles, lust and intimacy. Photographing heavily in the privacy of bedrooms; a challenge is created to reveal moments and interactions that as a collective we can all relate too, but do not always get to see or even understand. Through the utilization of my own personal experiences and of the individuals around me, images surface portraying elements that are both performative and natural; reflecting moments in which couples are fully engaged and comfortable with themselves and with me. It is an experience unlike any other that requires vulnerability, compassion and trust.
