In short, Iām a storyteller whoās fallen in love with documenting humans in their purest forms. Perfectly imperfect, raw, and genuine people who exist in their own beautiful way, all on their own. They donāt need me to tell them how to exist; they just do, and it is really dang marvelous.
Inspired by the cinemaās power to connect us as humans beyond the boundaries of language and culture, Iāve spent years immersing myself in a TON of movies and endless YouTube tutorials to craft poetic imagery.
Like you donāt wanna know the number of hours, days, and weeks (and still countingā¦) Iāve spent lost in this wild and wonderful rabbit hole. More like 24/7/365. Basically, interpreting the art of cinema through photography has become my whole personality, LOL!
Thatās why Iām beyond honored that youāre here and ready to pour your own storytelling magic into the world.
