Love saves the day

LOVE SAVES THE DAY

An immersive photographic and audio document from the first Women’s March in Los Angeles

On January 21, 2017, hundreds of thousands gathered in downtown Los Angeles as part of a worldwide moment of collective expression. Moving through the crowd as both witness and participant, I documented the march through still photography, ambient audio recordings, and motion capture — preserving not only what was seen, but what was felt.

Rather than a traditional documentary record, this project explores the relationship between individual emotion and collective space. Faces, gestures, voices, and sounds combine to create an immersive portrait of a moment when public space transformed into shared experience.

The embedded audio throughout this project was recorded live during the march, allowing viewers to step inside the atmosphere as it unfolded.

Though captured in 2017, this work feels increasingly relevant today — reflecting on how communities gather, speak, and shape history together.
