Ryan is often cited as my "resident Atheist," which is why this photograph is so stirring to me. He generally avoids aspects of the spirit, as they are often tied to religion; yet this image is brimming with spirituality.



These photographs were shot as a small celebration, several days after I broke him out of the neurological rehabilitation center he was in.

My friend was in a life-threatening motor scooter accident on September 14, 2012. He spent twenty-three days in a hospital--six of them in a neurological intensive care unit, and two weeks in a rehabilitation unit. Between uncountable sleepless hours spent bedside, two drives from Georgia to Maryland and back, and a damn boatload of crazy emotions, these were the photographs I managed to snag. What felt like an inescapable nightmare is now something that (luckily!) we're both comfortable making jokes and laughing about. Here's to moving forward, to lovin' + livin' life, and to taking pictures!
