I’m Jaime and I’m here to share my art and words–and the beauty and magic I feel in the world–in the hopes that you’ll meet me there too.

My Substack newsletter, Conversations with the universe (alittlelightwriting.substack.com), is about the dialogue between inspiration and creativity. I also post photography self-portraits and writing on Instagram @alittlelightwriting

What people say about my work

Beautiful stories… haunting, in a good way.” –Anne Martens, Los Angeles-based writer and artist

“Jaime’s writing is evocative, intricate, and kinesthetic. Her crisp, detailed, mysterious prose somehow captures beauty and pain, uncertainty and autonomy, all in one piece. Her photography captures her unique way of seeing the layers of time in a single image. Combined, they evoke an unforgettable, nuanced, dreamscape where creativity, humor, play, alchemy, and care all reside.” –Katey Schultz, author of Still Come Home (novel) and Flashes of War (stories)

“A world like ours but shifted a few degrees, at once both recognizable and completely foreign.” –anonymous juror, 2022 Sustainable Arts Foundation grant application

“With every reading, I discover something new. Jaime has an incredible ability to incorporate depth into the most seemingly simple line or observation. She can spark wonder and awaken a longing for adventure. She can bring to light the beauty in the ordinary. She can stir human nature through the touch of honey that drips from her words. But most importantly she never fails to make me feel.” –Scott S.
