Life would be so wonderful if we only knew what to do with it.

When you first start photographing a show or being into photography, you might think it's cool to see people with their phones, like, 'It's so novel; everyone cares about this moment so much,' but then it becomes... trite, y'know, and shallow. I think the best moments of my life have been spent without phones.
I have an adult emotional life and an editing system inside me which prevents me from being preposterously stupid.
