These images are based around dreams- the process of falling asleep, and turning into a character in your subconscious mind. The characters and stories that come to me in dreams are often the inspiration behind the photos I take—less so the specific details, but more in the sense that everything is hazy, nostalgic, and tinged with colors and déjà vu. In these images, I wanted to convey that feeling as well as portray a sense of whimsy and childlike wonder through glitter, angel wings, and hand painted and cut details on the images to enhance this blue, sleepy feeling.
