A collection of graphics, branding elements, and design work created for ANNI 25. These pieces mix photography, typography, and color into a visual language meant to capture the event’s tone — raw, communal, and future-facing. The project blends digital and physical aesthetics, mirroring the dual nature of Breaker Breaker itself: part underground, part public-facing, entirely shaped by the people who build it.
A protest in McAllen photographed from within the crowd, where flags, voices, and heat collide. The series emphasizes hands, posture, and the collective geometry of a group moving with purpose. These images hold both the seriousness of the cause and the improvisational reality of local protests — kids on shoulders, homemade signs, someone shouting directions over traffic. It’s democracy as lived by the people who show up.

This series documents Pharr’s Memorial Day march, tracing the relationship between civic ceremony, tradition, and the people who carry those traditions forward. Veterans on horseback, officers in uniform, and families lining the street all inhabit a shared moment of remembrance. The images look at how memory is maintained through repetition, how communities honor the past with rituals that feel both solemn and familiar.
Photographed during a neighborhood flood in Pharr, this series documents the uneasy calm after disaster. Residents wade through water thick with reflection, officials coordinate rescues, and neighbors gather on porches trying to read the sky. The images aren’t dramatic for the sake of drama — they sit with the human scale of events like this: the anxiety, the waiting, the strange stillness that follows a storm before life rearranges itself.
Shot inside a state facility, this piece uses architecture, movement, and graphic forms to interpret the idea of workplace wellness. Papers drift, light moves across walls. The film isn’t promotional in tone — it’s more curious, more observational — asking how institutions try to care for the people who make them run, and what that care looks like when filtered through policy, space, and routine. continue...new year ball drop 2025 / pharr texas / 12312025 * images
New Year’s Eve in Pharr photographed as both spectacle and community ritual. Musicians tune their instruments beneath stadium lights, workers make last-minute adjustments to cables, and families crowd the barricades waiting for the countdown. There’s a surreal quality to it — a giant glowing sphere suspended above a small Texas city — but it’s also deeply human, grounded in familiar faces and shared anticipation. These images hold that brief moment when everyone looks upward together.

A document of Breaker Breaker’s third second anniversary. It’s part celebration, part archive: a record of the people, spaces, and improvised rituals that shaped the collective before it fully named itself. In the Valley, scenes like this don’t always get remembered. This one does. continue...avocado festival 2024 / pharr texas / 10122024 * images
Photographed across a full day in Pharr, this series follows dancers, families, vendors, and performers moving through one of the Valley’s most colorful traditions. The images hold both the spectacle and the in-between moments: dancers waiting in the wings, kids tugging at dresses, vendors taking a breath behind their tables. Festivals like this become temporary cities — fragile, vibrant ecosystems built on culture, memory, and the desire to be seen. continue...moving homes / texas / 09142024 * video production
A timelapse of Breaker Breaker building a home studio inside a new space — a room slowly turning into a place for work, sound, and gathering. What begins as an empty corner becomes layered with cables, lights, instruments, and the casual choreography of friends figuring things out as they go. There’s a certain honesty in watching a studio take shape this way: no staging, no polished reveal, just the real-time assembly of a creative home. In the Valley, spaces like this are made by hand, built from whatever you have, and filled by whoever shows up. continue...independence day festival / pharr texas / 07042024 * images
Taken during the height of summer, this series captures the intimate warmth of a city gathering to celebrate a country in constant argument with itself. Families drift through the fairgrounds, kids run circles around food tents, and elders sit beneath shade tarps watching the evening unfold. Patriotic symbols mix with the everyday textures of the Valley — sweat, dust, laughter, the hum of Spanish and English overlapping. It’s a portrait of a community finding joy in the simple act of showing up together.
continue...hazmat training / pharr texas / 02292024 * images
Documenting a full-scale hazmat training in Pharr, these photographs sit at the intersection of performance and preparedness. Inside their suits, the responders move slowly, deliberately, like astronauts learning the terrain of a new world. Everything is controlled — the drills, the timing, the choreography — yet there’s an undercurrent of tension, the kind that comes from rehearsing scenarios you hope never happen. In a landscape known more for heat and flat roads than disaster response, this training becomes its own kind of local theater.

A short documentary on ENTRE Film Center, a growing hub for cinema in the Rio Grande Valley. The film follows the center’s quiet, deliberate work: preserving local histories, projecting films for small crowds, and building an archive of images that might otherwise disappear. Inside its rooms, volunteers move with a kind of gentle purpose—threading projectors, sorting photographs, preparing for another night of showing movies to whoever walks through the door.
This piece isn’t just about a film center; it’s about the people trying to keep culture alive in a place where it’s often overlooked. A portrait of caretakers, cinephiles, and archivists building something meaningful from the ground up.

Filmed inside the home of a woman who has taken in more animals than she can reasonably manage, this piece traces the emotional economy of care: the way she speaks to the dogs as if they were children, the way they orbit her presence like a center of gravity. The film is less about rescue as an institution and more about the human impulse to gather broken things, to insist they deserve another chance. In the Valley, stories like hers are everywhere — quiet, devoted, and rarely told.
A music video filmed at the edge of the coast, where the tide moves in slow repetitions and the performer drifts through the landscape like part of the shoreline. The piece follows simple gestures—walking, turning, pausing—as the light changes over the water. There’s no spectacle here, just the quiet relationship between sound, body, and place. Shot with minimal gear and a small crew, the video feels more like a field note than a production: a moment of music carried out into open air, letting the environment do its own share of the performance.

The opening to Breaker Breaker — the first thread in everything that followed. pull it traces a single mic cable dragged across the Valley, moving through fields, sidewalks, streets, and quiet corners until it reaches the studio that would become the collective’s home. The film is simple on the surface, but underneath is the feeling of something beginning: a line connecting place to place, people to each other, idea to action.
Shot before Breaker Breaker fully existed, it works as a small prophecy — a handmade origin myth about building a creative world from the ground up, starting with whatever you can carry.
