Candid Connections

“Candid about Love (Television Movie 2023) is about Laura, a gallery assistant and wannabe fine-art photographer, is finally promised a spot in a Newcomer's Showcase--but only if she can get a reclusive artist, Shane, to premiere his newest photographs at the gallery.”

I studied photography when I was a student and provided numerous services to galleries. Additionally, I have also had the opportunity to exhibit some of my art in galleries. In any relationship, I strongly believe it is important to be candid.

I have not revisited Rock Creek Park and the zoo since 2018. I have not returned back to Malcolm X Park since 2015.

Candid Connections emphasizes the theme of honesty and openness in relationships.
