In 2016 I moved from Tulsa, Oklahoma only 90 miles southwest to Oklahoma City. In doing so I found a motivation to begin rapidly photographing again. Colors seemed more vibrant and I noticed myself more interested in the overlooked parts of a city, the leftovers and left behinds. This transition of place would lead me to create Allegro, my first long term project since Ahnedonia. For the first time I would use color photography as my primary personal medium. This would also mark a transition of photographic belief: nothing is more or less important or beautiful in photography.
