It’s all about the story inside.

I grew up in a creative family. Being an artist, graphic designer, and photographer, my dad bought his first Mac 2 years before I was born. He had a nice video camera for capturing family moments and I always remember being strangely attracted to it and his Nikon SLR. Eventually learning the basics of cameras and how to use them, I assumed the role of the family documentarian. When I was 15, dad replaced the family’s aging 400mhz PowerMac G4 with the new iMac Core Duo. Life changed forever when I found that I could load video into iMovie and tell a story. But in 2 months I found the limits of iMovie and then spent the most money I ever had before and bought Final Cut Studio. A year later I bought my first Sony HDV camcorder, and a year after that my family bought me a Nikon DSLR. I found my calling behind the lens. Fast forward 11 years after reading dozens of books on film and photography, working on hundreds of projects, and spending tens of thousands of dollars on gear, I became a full-time freelance filmmaker.
