How the stars are where we choose to see them…
With more soon,
J.T.
Honestly,
I love it when you’re like this.
At Another Intersection
Just like that, another month goes by. August has been an amazing time for yours truly, and now, a new cycle begins for the year ahead! Based on all that the road has been up to this point, I have a great feeling about J.T. moving forward. I know that there will be great obstacles to come with moving forward, but I trust that as with everything else, I’ll find a way to enjoy the ride.
At the end of the day, and with magical precision, we are always moving forward, or into the next version of ourselves. Through the high and the low ends, we always arrive precisely at the places we need to be, always right on time, and just as the characters we’re meant to be.

On Faith, Love, and In Between: Community Arts in Los Feliz
Yesterday Los Feliz and East Hollywood were both treated to an Open Mic night hosted by the Beautiful Gate community of the Los Feliz neighborhood in North-Central L.A. The event brought together singers, dancers, poets, and other artists from all over Los Angeles for a jam-packed evening of expression; as a photographer for the night, I counted nearly three-hundred shots of people of all ages and colors enjoying each other’s company with relatively few strings attached.
The Beautiful Gate is a faith-based movement that launched earlier this year. Unlike many faith organizations, however, the Beautiful Gate aims to “change the way people experience Christ and the church,” according to Samuel Theophylus, the organization’s head visionary.
