28 revolutions. These are my first portraits in two years and the first time I’ve picked up my camera in over four months 😅 The creative energy comes in serious waves and I’m still figuring out how to stay on the board. But this season of me is less about maintaining a perceived standard and more so about being content with who I am. Every year I feel like a layer of my consciousness is being peeled back and revealing itself, like my brain is waking up more and more. What I crave now more than anything is a sense of clarity and balance that still hasn’t been reached. And I’m realizing that trying to mask the imbalance with things like career progression and a false sense of growth just isn’t a sustainable solution. Being a good person and leading with love and positivity is what really fuels the fire. I’m confident this next year of life will be defined by deeper connections, reigniting passion, and (hopefully) picking up the camera a little more. Much love everybody!

Dad would’ve been 65 on Sunday, finally about to enjoy the fruits of his labor for the last forty years. It makes me sad knowing how hard he worked to build a foundation of success for my sisters and I but didn’t get a chance to kick his feet up and take a breath at the end of it all. It seems like life has been on auto-pilot for me these last few months. Just going through the motions and taking it one day at a time. But this weekend offered a much needed chance to take a step back and feel grounded again. His love for the ocean permeated our family, and he fostered countless memories for us in the outer banks over the years. So it only felt right to send him off the best way we knew how. His urn was this biodegradable mixture made from sand, so just after sunrise I swam out past the break and sent him on his way. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. A really rad tribute to an amazing role model, father, and husband. Love always pops 🖤

| “Game means the ability to fight through pain and fatigue - doesn’t matter how high your skill level is, if you’re good or bad, or a world champion - if you’re tired just keep going, keep fighting. Bred means that you were born and raised to do a specific task” - I think it’s safe to say the champ found his calling 💯 |

| So it’s been two months since I started this new gig and here’s a quick rundown : according to the app I’ve traveled 27,889 miles (just hit gold status wadduppp), been to Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York City, Sacramento, St. Louis (plus some other cities that don’t sound as cool - sorry Riverside), and taken more photos than I could possibly count. I’ve been on the road almost every week and somehow still find myself feeling stagnant at times. At first it didn’t make sense to me, but what I’m realizing in the sporadic downtime is that with my mind being so focused on one thing it’s been almost impossible to disconnect and hit the creative reset button. Thankfully I had the time to do that today and took advantage of it. I’m still trying to figure out what direction I want to take my own photography (which is why I haven’t posted lately) but in the meantime I’ll keep doing what I can to throw a bunch of random s**t on my story along the way. And if you’re asking yourself, “what the hell is Evan talking about and what does it have to do with this post?”, the answer is I don’t really know 🤷🏻‍♂️ But this hike was epic and I woke my dog up at 5am to go see this so he deserves some shine |

| Life update : Last week marked the end of my time with the Charlotte Hornets. Trying to summarize my journey over the last two and a half years in just a few words is tough, but one thing I’ve learned is that you have to always, always follow your passion. Everyone says your mid-20’s are the best years of your life, and for me it’s been a combination of self discovery and self reflection sprinkled with the obvious dose of doubt and confusion. Through all of that I’ve realized that my purpose in life is simply to tell a story and use my camera to bring that story to life. That being said, I’m very excited to start this next chapter as a photographer at .usa. Huge shoutout to for the opportunity! Stay tuned for what’s next 👀 |

| 25 years around the sun. I guess the cliché thing to do here would be some written monologue about how great my life is and all the personal growth I’ve experienced. The truth is that I’m just as lost and confused now as I was that time I got lost on my middle school field trip to Washington, DC (classic). None of us know what the hell we’re doing, myself included. I’m single, living paycheck to paycheck, drowning in debt, and don’t have a clue what I actually want to do with my life (honesty hour 🤷🏻‍♂️). But what I do know is that the purest moments in life are a byproduct of trusting your gut and allowing the universe to take its course. So that’s what I’m gonna do. Here’s to another year of average photos, even more average skating, and all around good vibes 🖤 |

| Photography isn’t even in my job description. And yet, in my time with the Hornets I’ve been lucky enough to witness some incredibly intimate moments through the lens of my camera. What happens off the court is just as important as what happens on it, and I’m stoked that this organization puts such a strong emphasis on philanthropy. Building that kind of culture starts from the top, and to see this come to fruition was something special. Swipe for more - the second shot is my personal favorite. |

| One thing I’m realizing as I navigate life is how easy it is to get distracted by ego and selfish ambition. Staying positive is a challenge, and the constant ebb and flow of toxic energy makes it hard to see the good in the world. But then there are these little moments when I come to and realize that maybe I’m just not looking close enough. This was one of them. The true test of a successful person is not only in their willingness to give back to those in need, but also in their ability to keep their word. Michael Jordan did both, and I was blessed enough to be there to capture it. |

| I know this quote looks intimidating but you should read it. I wrote it down a few months ago while I was reading a book and came back to it after I took this photo. “A lot of creatives have not grown up - and I mean that in the best way. The conundrum is how to become mature, how to take responsibility and become reliable while at the same time preserving your childlike wonder. People have come up to me many times and said, ‘Gee, I wish I could be creative like you. That would be something, to be able to draw.’ But I believe that everyone begins with the ability to draw. Kids are instinctively there. But a lot of them unlearn it. Or people tell them they can’t or that it’s not practical. So yes, kids have to grow up, but maybe there’s a way to suggest that they could be better off if they held onto some of their childish ideas.” - Brad Bird (Director of The Incredibles) |
