artist statement

no matter how im feeling on a day or how stressed out i may get, filming is the escape for it all. when i think about work i have to do, i may feel overwhelmed. but once im out, with a camera, all the problems dissapear. i dont think about all the bad things, i just enjoy filming.
i try to create an image that the audience is going to look at and realize that there is something in the frame catching their eye, but they just cannot figure it out. i love making images that are very subtle with their point, yet emphasises that point. some of my biggest influences use this style. with film, there are endless possibilites of combinations using the frame, lighting, and music. i love shooting with natural light and using close ups. these bring the audience into the shot more. i try to convey what our eyes see, but in a way that our brain does not notice. a camera expresses what we see in a way we cannot, and expresses how i feel in a way i cannot.
