I'd say as an overall aesthetic for my photography, I try to make things honest. I use a lot of natural light and I think this helps in capturing real moments in my life. But, you know, there's also a lot of erotic imagery in my work. I am a woman who is a bit obsessed with feminine sexuality, or sexuality in general, and it's a part of myself that I like to explore. I like to push my own boundaries, and the expectations of people viewing my photography.

My friend Anthony Brennan once said, "Come for the breasts, stay for the heart" and I think a lot of people feel that way about my work. First they see tits and ass, and sure, that's nice, but then they see more, they see loneliness, and humour, and understanding and that's what makes them keep coming back. I think? I hope!
