Documenting a colorful life
Toting cameras everywhere she goes, Kaelen practices a photojournalistic style to create visually stunning and thought provoking stories. Kaelen uses images in tandem with written and oral histories to illustrate meaningful moments. Her goal is to impart the relatable, yet nuanced sensations of her own experience.
Beyond capturing memories, cameras are tools of perspective. Kaelen sees richness in both ordinary and breathtaking moments, like a lazy cat lounging amongst the silverware on a friend’s kitchen counter, or the surreal landscape of a volcano’s edge at dawn. These are the beginnings of resonant stories she hopes to share with the world.
