Jess Stephens is a photographer working around themes of memory, process, and gender. The fixation with texture comes from years of building tiny Jenga dessert towers as a pastry chef in Michelin restaurants and hotels across the US. Now, she documents what lies beyond the food porn feed: the people, landscape, and possibility. She's contributed to The Los Angeles Times, Gastronomica, Noice, and Midnite Snack.
Image 2/2 was from last fall's rainy Día de los Muertos celebration in West Adams. LA may not have rain until February, so your support is appreciated!
