Last year was absolutely nuts, so it made me very happy to end the year on a beautiful note. I went from working with a client as photographer for art week in Miami to hanging photos for my first solo exhibition “Coordinates” going up at my favorite spot, @nightbloombar. Coordinates is a small collection of film photography I saved from 2018 - 2025. Photography became a safe space for me as I worked to figure out some parts of myself that just weren’t working. So sharing it, in public is hella personal. @sheshoots_ is my real friend and made sure it was documented with love. My mom and my fam pulled up, @oh.scottie @iamashleylorraine @compton.iii and @djquickweave all played a serious role in me not losing my shit in the process and @artsoullife for framing these. Thank you to everyone that pulled up, thank you to my first buyer, I sold a piece straight off the wall as soon as the opening started and i’m shipping out my first print tomorrow, thank you to everyone that bought a sweatshirt - there are a few left, i’ll let you know how to get em. If you get a minute follow my photography page @photodotrq and if you got a minute and some gas money head over to Nightbloom to see it in person. Thank you and Thank you again.

Peace yo! Join us tomorrow at @stnoircafe for Mocha, an all vinyl set for those who want to discover new artists and revisit deeper cuts from your favorites in between sips. Some artists I’ll be playing are Davina, The Roots, @tankandthebangas , Tony Williams, Ivy Sole, Kamasi Washington, Jill Scott, U.T.D., Art Blakey, Sade, Flying Lotus and @cavwins . Bring your good energy a book or a friend and i’ll see you there.

Trying something new and I hope you like it. 🙂🙂
This Sunday - Mother’s Day - join me for “Good Flirts” at @dovetailnola featuring @pressureburger plus all vinyl grooves of every era and genre (and coloring books)provided by me. Any questions?

Me, you, your homies and @silvercity504 linking up next week at @thetellmebar to jam to Funk, Soul and Jazz (extra heavy on the Jazz this time) all on vinyl. Staring things off a little later, so you got a second to get cute after work. See you at the spot.

After Jazz Fest, don’t rush home find your next stop at @dovetailnola 🍷☕️
Pause & Pour is where the music feels good, the conversations come easy, and the night unfolds naturally.
