What can I say about this year. 2021 took a look at 2020 and said "hold my beer." It's been one of the most challenging years of my life. In September I was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer which started a course of harsh treatment that will last for more than a year. When you are faced with the possibility of death, you will be surprised at what you would be willing to do to live. This of course has put photography on the back burner for a while. I didn't shoot much this year but have been documenting my cancer journey a bit with my phone. I did a bit of storm chasing, spent some time on our favorite Island, and got to play in the snow. Despite having this cancer thing thrown at me, I am super grateful for the support we have received from our Marfa community and beyond. I am at a loss for words on how to even say thank you. I can't wait to get back to chasing storms. Here's to kicking cancers butt in 2022!
