Music can take you on a journey, make you laugh, cry and touch the deepest part of your soul. So can a photograph. I come to photography as a musician, attracted to visual narratives that define an unsuspected beauty in a specific place in time. I am a champion of the overlooked, and see my photography as a way to research, create change and inject some beauty into the world.

The Godfather
My father's name is SAVINO CAVALLO
Born: March 15, 1918 in Dominican Republic
He migrated to USA and lived in USA for 25 years then returning to his country of origin.
He's 92 right now, retired, widowed. He's outlived all of his family (they were 11 siblings). He's overcome 2 cancers and is still moving along, taking care of his 3 dogs and has his occasional drinks. He still travels to Dom Rep on important occasions. My father's a gentle soul and loved by all who know him.

ReplyDeleteHe's even lovely when I call on the phone. Always asks me how I am and doesn't sound old. He sounds courtly.
