THE ROOMMATE SERIES
Evelyn Rude
Many of those who are familiar with my work, know that I am mostly involved in the fashion and entertainment scene. Not many of you may know the beginning of my roots which is documentation and journalism. The beginning of my passion as a photographer was capturing raw moments of life. Not the one's I create on set or campaigns, but just present life itself. For all of 2022, I realized that burnout was serious. Constantly pushing for me to reach my creative peak. And hopefully I never reach that peak. I'm always striving to improve my skills and passion everyday. With that being said, at one point of fall last year, I was burnt out and needed a new change of scenery. I have been wanting to do "The Roommate Series" ever since the beginning of last year but did not have the complete vision for it. The "Roommate Series" brings my viewers behind the scenes even further than a production set. It's the people who inspire me in my everyday life and who I call my friends and community. Each story will come with different values, themes, and memories as I show the homes of my close ones including my own. I'm going back to the roots of my passion and hope to open your eyes of this industry and navigating through life through the people in my life and myself.
