A Few Things About Me 

I work in film because I believe in form with memory. In process with presence. In images that don’t just capture, they transmit.

My inspirations are wide-ranging, from the surrealists who cracked open the subconscious, to the quiet philosophers of the lens like Ozu and Kurosawa, to those whose visions blurred reality and dream until they became one. Their work didn’t follow trends. It followed something deeper. So do I.

Originally, I picked up a camera to support the production of a film I wrote. But what began as a means quickly became a medium, a place where I could offer something real, in a world that often feels filtered past recognition.

The people who find my work - artists, entrepreneurs, creatives, thinkers - often aren’t just looking for a photo. They’re looking to hold a moment that already feels like memory. I work with intention, clarity, and a respect for what images can still do.

And above all, I shoot film. Because some things deserve to be made slowly, honestly, and with care.

The work doesn’t begin with me,  it starts somewhere older, quieter, beyond language. But when it reaches me, I meet it fully. Not just to receive, but to respond. That’s the rhythm. And I move with it every time I create.
