Brighter in Memory

This project leans into nostalgia through saturated, dreamlike photographs that reflect how childhood grows brighter and blurrier as time passes. I find myself returning to the small things that shaped me like playgrounds, chalk, bike rides, and glitter, and noticing how those memories still show up in the quiet places of daily life. Even though kids grow up in a different world now, there is still a familiar sense of joy and innocence that feels the same. Some images are soft and simple, and others drift into a busier haze that mirrors how remembering actually feels. Together, the series holds the warmth of the past and the quiet ache of time moving forward.
