my name is dylan. i make photographs, videos, writing, and books. i think about mythmaking, disinformation, and animals. i praise at the altar of story.



this website is a mess. im making a new one. i get pretty freaked out about my photographs being on the internet, please bear with me. 


i’ve chosen to have this website only show a tiny selection of projects and only a tiny selection of images per project.


if you are interested in something editiorial, please email me and I will send you my editorial portfolio.
