I’ve come to realize this not long ago. Each social media app has its in own personality & behavior.
IG is now for content that’s in proximity to big announcements/sponsors
Twitter is for the deep cuts, iykyk content
TikTok is for discoverability & learning more about you…
Instagram is rubbish these days for photographers. It’s so disheartening when you post work and it’s not seen due to the algorithm. It’s no longer a place for photography.
My work was featured in last Sunday’s
@nytimes
Arts & Leisure💜
My first time having work printed in NYT & something about me celebrating 10 years of living in NYC makes this pivotal and honorable moment.
Many thanks to the photo editors for the feature and my collaborators!

I’ve personally been finding peace and solitude with tumblr because there is an audience that appreciates the art for what it is…it’s not as metrics based and I feel more motivated to post work I know other apps won’t acknowledge/see.
This is just my theory, not fact!
I’ve been chatting with my girl
@donyetaylor_
about this & she made a great point saying:
“work has to be multilayered in order for It to spread. It has to be timely, relevant, inspirational etc”
So now, it’s extra work that the artist has to do as a content creator for reach
for my latest newsletter, I wrote about content and how it’s become a self expression tool. I touch on creative direction and how it’s more than just a skill but a way of thinking and approaching work that everyone can adopt.
