Artist’s Statement:
We begin looking at the world at an early age, as childhood is where the curiosity begins. Getting a camera when we are young allows us to practice with the constraints of making a photograph. Nobody wakes up knowing that in their waking hours they will make one of the most meaningful images a human has ever seen
To become a great photographer is an unbelievably difficult journey. Many try but startlingly few reach their goals. It has been said that photographers see everything, but becoming an all-seeing photographer is the result of years of practice. My work allows me to shoot film for my images, as it is my most familiar tool and every image I make is an attempt at creating perfect beauty.
