Authenticity through photography is an attribute that I continue to strive for through my own self-portraits in the medium. Through a combination of different modeling and photography techniques, these photographs of myself demonstrate the variety of aspects that it means to be a Chicagoan. I find the city's landscape as backdrop to captures a person's true personality.
