Now Where Do I Come From?
Hi there, I’m Shaun! First, thank you for spending time with my portfolio. I’m deeply grateful for the opportunity to share and inspire connection from my work. I’m 24 years old and currently live in Midlothian, Texas. I fostered my love for photography back in 2019 when I took my first photography class at Mount SAC. I was hooked. The intentionality and folklore of creating an image gripped my mind. From there, I’ve photographed anything from winter scenes in my hometown to supercells in tornado alley.
Storm photography grew out of a respect for the dichotomy of Mother Nature. Back in 2022, I witnessed three tornadic supercells go right over my family’s home. Lightning, hail, tornado sirens; the whole nine yards. This was quite the shock coming from the calm seasonality of California. I was terrified. Humbled. And like a moth to a flame, completely fascinated! After going on some of my first chases, nothing can top the sensation of watching Mother Nature’s power. Witnessing breathtaking events that would otherwise go unnoticed. Being a tourist where no tourists go. I never could have predicted an adventure quite like this. And as a young man with an old soul, I look forward to sharing the stories along the way.
