Life In Progress - Myka

This ongoing personal project follows Myka, my younger sister who was adopted at three months old. What began as documentation of my mom learning how to care for and style Black hair as a white mother has grown into a deeper, more personal story about identity, belonging, and family.

Over time, the project has shifted away from just the learning process and toward Myka herself. From her personality, her everyday life, and the moments that reveal who she is as she grows. These images reflect both the love and intentionality within our family, and the ways identity is shaped through care, culture, and connection over time.

This story is ever-changing and will be added to yearly.
