Just wanna be in Belgium taking bad selfies with old buildings

I love photographing dancers from the Tulsa Ballet. They are highly technical dancers and have beautiful lines, so it makes my job super easy because every shot is pretty much perfect

Sneak peek from my shoot this morning

Sitting behind a family on a plane with three crying kids. Father of the year is watching some comedy video with no headphones while the kids scream and mom tries to console them.

Did headshots for an event yesterday and I’m really enjoying the ridiculously high resolution im shooting with and seeing all the colors in the eyeballs

My husband was detained by ICE today Juan Muñoz, an American citizen, father of 2, and local government official, was peacefully protesting w. other elected officials. He was assaulted and taken away I have had zero contact or updates since #SOS @duckworth.senate.gov @durbin.senate.gov

Trying to find little moments of joy.

My god. “Watson said she saw agents dragging residents, including kids, out of the building without any clothes on and into U-Haul vans. Kids were separated from their mothers…’It was heartbreaking to watch…seeing kids coming out buck naked and taken from their mothers, it was horrible.’”

This AISES conference feels different. There’s a lot of anxiety and fear in the air. Usually there are a lot of government sponsored orgs and institutions here recruiting but they’re not this year. I’ve had multiple ppl tell me they’re worried about losing funding any day.

Steak dinner at Manny’s with my pal Kristen 🥰

Been pretty depressed past couple of weeks but feeling gratitude to be among many amazing Indigenous professionals at AISES this week. I’m a part of the Rematriation program which brings Native women in STEM together. It can be so lonely being the only nativer person in many of these places

Some snaps at the fair

Fun snaps in between takes

got to work on a music video set today. :D

Ryan Walters made Oklahoma last in education and then dipped out. What a winner 😂

Really loving this already. This is Tulsa. This is home 🥰 the messy gritty truth of Tulsa

Moments at home

My friend Jackie passed recently after a sudden and fast turn in her fight with cancer. She had such a big heart and was so kind. The past month I set aside much of myself to care for her, and now I’m working on recovering too while coping with loss. Cancer sucks, and life is quite simply, not fair

It’s rapture day! Go play your trumpets to confuse ppl

My friend and neighbor Jackie has been fighting cancer for a while. They week she transitioned to inpatient hospice and we’re preparing to make sure her beloved pets are going to be cared for. If you’d like to support Jackie and her furry family, here’s the GoFundMe. 💙 gofund.me/161660a39

My fav cafe 🍽️ Prism Cafe in Tulsa, OK

It was so enjoyable to be on Talk of the Table. If you want to hear about the past, present and future of Coyote & Crow, give it a listen!

Cute babies

Butterfly dresses I need

Tansi ya'll!! I need your help. My Ted Talk is finally live on YouTube, but I really need views & engagement so it can graduate from TedX to the official Ted site. That way it'll help more people discover comics and Indigenous Story Robes!! youtu.be/MNeqk_XehEk?...

Played with different flash settings for these shots with the Hasselblad X2Dii. So crispy. #ballet #photography

I do think the world would return to a better place if we re-opened more fro-yo shops. Things went downhill once we stopped nourishing our guts with healthy probiotics in the form of little diy treats. It's hard to be filled with hate when you're filled with yogurt and sprinkles.

Apparently people are upset when I comment on their Charlie Kirk posts saying, “it’s sad but I think a few deaths are worth it to protect the god given right to have guns”… isn’t that the view you are celebrating? Idk humans are confusing man

The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

“I think it’s worth it to have a few gun deaths every year to protect our god-given gun rights”. -Charlie Kirk

Coffee shop coworkjng portrait with my friend @kaitnoone.bsky.social !!

Testing my new camera out on the stray cats 😅🥹

Really enjoying the Irish fest! There’s something special about diaspora music 🥰

Kansas City Irish fest!

Wanting to do more portrait work! Holler if you need some new shots !

Wishing I was still at ojo caliente

Learned a new jig on the fiddle and a hornpipe for my feet. It’s been a productive week and it’s just Monday. 🥰

Boujee’in it up at ojo caliente

New bling!

Rangsss

Took my first Irish dance class in 16 years (not counting the few classes in 2018 that i took far too early after my broken foot). It was fun. I survived. I can feel the intense pain setting in already. I need ice.

“Sorry I can’t go out tonight I gotta clean my living room so I can film my cat doing the Hamilton come back to sleep trend 😂”

My goal for the year was to learn a tune a week on the fiddle. I’m about 10 tunes behind, but I have about that many in progress so hopefully soon i can add them to my list 😂 also started learning a new instrument so that slowed me down.
