The person behind the frame
A photograph begins
with paying attention.
I’m drawn to the moments between the moments. The unguarded expression. The light that changes the whole room. The way somebody becomes themselves when they stop trying to be photographed.
My work moves between candid portraiture, editorial images, live culture and everyday life. The thread is always human.
