FlyFall

FlyFall was made one week before I broke my neck in 2009, on the same trampoline where my life would change forever. At the time, I was photographing bodies suspended in midair — weightless, powerful, and briefly freed from gravity.

Looking back, the series feels almost prophetic. The images freeze the split second between flight and impact, a moment that is both invincible and fragile. What I once saw as pure motion now carries a deeper resonance about risk, vulnerability, and the limits of the body.

FlyFall is not a story of tragedy, but a love letter to movement, strength, and the fleeting grace of bodies in flight. The work reminds us how quickly everything can change — and how, even in descent, there can still be beauty.
