"Bad Dad" is a photographic exploration of the quiet guilt and loud joy of raising children while still trying to hold onto some sense of self - a balancing act that brings judgment, curiosity, and confusion. I crave late‑night mischief, unfiltered conversations and adventure, as I navigate school runs, bedtime stories and scraped knees. This isn’t a show of extreme hedonism or shock value, but a look at the tension of being more than one thing, one sort of man, one archetype. Bad Dad leans into that tension with a wink and an open heart - not a guide to parenting, but a love letter to the mess of trying -  inviting viewers to question what a “good” parent looks like, and who gets to decide.
