Fires Aftermath (Series)
DESCRIPTION
February 2025 devastating fires swept through three Southern California communities of Altadena, Malibu and Pacific Palisades. Two months after the fact I was able to get permission to take photographs to document the devastation. The area on the Pacific Palisades were at the time still being regulated by the National Guard. It was one thing to see it all on the news, it was another to be boots on the ground and be there. It was overwhelming.
