Have you ever avoided being photographed because you didn’t feel “ready”? 📸💭

You’re not alone. So many of us carry stories about our bodies that make us want to hide from the lens.

Some of you may remember Margey the Meerkat (on the left). She used to come along with me on photo shoots. When I’m ready to get back out there with my camera, she’ll have some company — Top Dog, as Dad called him.

Top Dog was Dad’s — the little stuffy he made sure to bring with him when he moved to Virginia to live with us. I’m pretty sure he had originally given it to Mom during one of her hospital stays back in the 90s.

It just feels right that the two of them will come along with me on future photo adventures.

Some music doesn’t just move you — it reminds you.

This is what Love and Pain did to me.

A blend of heartbreak, spirit, and AI visuals.
It awakened something beyond this lifetime.

What hurts more:
The memory held in the heart—
Or the freedom gained in the spirit’s release?

This isn’t just an AI music video.
It’s a reflection on love, grief, and sacred surrender.

Let the visuals and sound carry you through the silence we often ignore.
