Las Hermanitas

2025

Las Hermanitas is a portrait of sisterhood. I had the privilege of photographing these two sisters inside their abuelita’s home in Oakland, CA. The house where they grew up was filled with laughter shared between hermanas and primas, along with the delicious scent of their abuela’s cooking. This work functions as resistance by honoring intimacy, lineage, and softness in a world that often demands endurance from women without rest. These sisters are the first in their bloodline to live life on their own terms, navigating the world together. Their resistance lives in care and in choosing one another.
