Resurrecting the Muses
My work inspired by classical art and timeless beauty.
There’s something ancient that stirs in me when I create. I’ve always been enchanted by the classical arts… especially the dreamy, symbolic worlds of the Pre-Raphaelites. I grew up in a home where my mother had framed John Waterhouse replica’s, his paintings are known for their depictions of women from both ancient Greek mythology and Arthurian legend.
Their women weren’t just muses; they were portals into other worlds blending visionary mysticism with deeply personal symbolism.
Painted in rich detail, surrounded by wild nature, these figures held a kind of beauty that wasn’t just about appearance, it was about emotion, and soul.
That same reverence is what I carry into every shoot.
I don’t photograph women to capture them, I photograph to unveil them. To return to that romantic and spiritual language that beauty is something you feel in your chest.
