skylar sweetman

I was recently united with my best friend Skylar for the first time in nine months. She spent the better part of this year traveling through China, while I finished up college and moved to the east coast. Her ongoing photography project documents Chinese restaurants in Northeast Ohio, and she’ll be having a show in [...]


you join now those who won’t leave

Some animals I managed to photograph in Europe: I’d really like to call this photo, “A Dog in Prague.” But I actually took this beauty’s photo in Dresden. Those eyes!

Two others: I didn’t notice the similar composition between these two images until just now.

rough around the edges

I finally had my film from my trip developed, and have begun the process of scanning and viewing pages upon pages of negatives. Here are five images as an early sampling, in order of the ones I like the least to the ones I like more.

These photos will not be in the show:

I’m undecided about [...]

Also not in the show:

I am on the fence about these:


bear with me

Arden and I finally named our show:

Honey & Wounds Opening Friday, April 30, 2010 / 8pm Fischer Gallery, Oberlin College

It’ll be up until May 3rd, though.

The past week and a half have consisted of my feeling like a frantic lunatic while trying to maintain some kind of stable veneer with deep breaths, [...]

i was a non-believer when she told me i was free

I’ve been moving away from shooting my usual domestic scenes to expand upon the more isolated portraits I made last semester. It’s just a pause, because the images I make inside houses are arguably the cornerstone of this project. I find portraits harder to shoot & want to tackle that endeavor, because there’s a thrill [...]
