JENNIFER WALTERS

My grandparents raised me to invent chipmunk traps and catch crawdads in creek muck, get nicked by briars picking blackberries and search for deer skulls in the woods. I investigated life with escapades and fervor.

This quest is ongoing and still leads me to slipping over river rocks and huddling around campfires with s’mores, but now I’m also listening to stories of hurts and hopes and aiming to honor those epics. 

The result is a deep sense of home and adventure, equal amounts of fear and fondness, all at the same time. With or without a camera, I’ll always be exploring.
