Hi, I’m Willow.

I’m a documentary photographer. Through my photography, I tell the intimate stories of everyday people and their extraordinary lives.

I’ll let you in on a secret. As a shy introvert, photography is my excuse to get to know people on a deeper level. And as a byproduct, my documentary practice has taught me valuable skills for interacting with a diverse range of people.

My photographs have been used by news outlets such as The Jakarta Post and Inside Indonesia and nonprofit organizations like Scientists Without Borders, Kopernik, Phoenix Collegiate Academy and Jeju Furey, among others. And my work has been exhibited in the US, Germany, and Indonesia.

After graduating with a BFA, I started traveling the world and became a lover of foreign cultures and new experiences. That’s why I’ve now spent more than a decade outside the US, living in Korea, Thailand and Indonesia.

I’ve taught photography in the US and Thailand and English as a second language, art and social storytelling in Indonesia and Korea.
