Weddings and Events
While I prioritize documentary or journalistic style coverage, that doesn't keep my creativity from constantly evolving to suit the situations I find myself in. While I look to Photographers such as Gordon Parks, Cheriss May, and John Branch IV for specific inspiration in the documentarian or controled candid styles, the goal is to also synthesize the styles and processes of cinematographers film directors such as Sir Roger Deakins, Wong Kar-Wai, Wes Anderson, Denis Villenuve, Christopher Nolan, William Eggleston, and Richard Avedon to name only a small few.
When working with clients, I like to spend as much time in prep and storyboarding as time allows. I believe that only 5% of anything you do is a result of luck or skill in the moment. What makes the shared vision between the Photographer and the client successful lies in the other 95% that is planning and preparation.
