Fears, Nightmares, & Dreams Collide is a conceptual series that combines my love for surrealism and natural beauty. The idea for the series came from a long-held fascination with levitation, balloon, and gas mask photography. I incorporated all three themes in the creation of this dreamlike series to fulfill my mission of taking any picture and having it look exactly the way I envisioned. I had been unsatisfied with the variety of images that existed in the realm of gas mask photography for quite some time and made it my mission to bring my visions to life. The series began in 2014 and is an ongoing project.
