I love the ocean. It’s become a part of me.
I recently got together with an old friend - 40 years of friendship stand between us. Those memories and moments we remember are often significant and commonly shared.
But I recounted a moment between us that she had no recollection of. It wasn’t part of her memories or experiences. To me, it was a moment I will never forget…seared in my mind like a well done steak. It’s part of the tapestry of me.
And yet, she doesn’t remember it.
How is it that a moment can be significant to one person and useless to another?
I have been pausing a lot recently on how each one of us sees the world. What unique and intricate parts stand out to each one of us. Moments we weave together…memories that define us.
I see this no more significantly than in photography. I love what I do - be it shooting a wedding, a clothing brand, a garden, or a home…each one of those is different. And it’s my job to tell you the story.
My perspective is light. It’s love. It’s what I carry in my heart and what I am trying to tell you each time I pick up the camera and press the shutter. I think my best photos are when I am there with my whole heart and not only can I see it, but so can you.
I am here to be curious about the world I see. And my job is to show it to you.
