Statement
I like to think that my work is about seeing
movement. Creating images that are unique to my vision, using double exposure, slow shutter speeds and intentional camera movement as part of my process. Intuition and chance play an important part. It's like shooting film, you never know what you really have until you're back in front of the computer. This is what I find exciting about this way of shooting.
