Jasmine Hernandez






I find myself envying that strong personality she has at only five years old: bold, eccentric and loud, only hoping regardless of where her life goes she continues on this way later in life.
The series Goodbye, Adolescence moves through the subtle weight of growing up; part nostalgia, part observation, part longing. I blended personal memories with moments borrowed from friends and acquaintances; those small, distinct moments that shape us, even as we leave them behind. Each image holds the ache of something lost to time, the soft residue of childhood’s warmth. This is about what lingers and what fades, tied with the bittersweet way we carry both.

Her creative projects delve into themes of staged portraiture, climate change, and street photography, capturing intimate yet socially relevant narratives. Jasmine is also an active member of her school's media team, working as a photographer to document events and contribute to the school's visual identity. Currently she is preparing for her senior art show in May 2025, showcasing her artistic evolution and dedication to her craft.
