Filmmaking is about preserving what matters; noticing the small things and holding onto moments that pass quickly. What started as a quiet interest has become second nature, shaping the way I see light, movement, and emotion.
I approach my work the same way I approach life: with intention and appreciation for what’s real. I’m drawn to quiet gestures, meaningful glances, and the way light naturally falls across a scene. I don’t try to over-direct or manufacture moments. I pay attention, and I film what’s already there.
When I’m not working, I’m often with family, planning a trip, or enjoying time outside I love to travel, and I like bringing home something small from each place; a handmade piece or simple object to remember how it felt to be there.
The calm of fresh snow. The warmth of a summer lake. The sound of laughter in a crowded square. Those experiences stay with me. They shape how I tell stories — with care, honesty, and a deep respect for the beauty in what’s real.
I’m drawn to both the big moments and the small ones — what's real. It’s not just about documenting what happened, but about holding on to how it felt. When we watch our old family home videos, they’re not polished or perfect. They weren’t made to impress anyone, just to remember. This simple act of preservation, of honoring life as it unfolds, is at the heart of my work. I’m driven by the belief that our stories — our family archives — are among the most valuable things we leave behind.
