The Lionhearts

A few of my favorite humans.
D&D legends, Olympic champions, a motorcycle club secretary named Spyder. I can't believe they let me hang out with these people.

Approach
I show up early, I listen more than I talk, and I try to leave my assumptions in the car. You can't understand how someone sees the world if you're busy deciding it for them.
Subjects
Athletes, artists, people who'd never call themselves interesting. Those are usually my favorites.
Here's the honest version: I just really like people. I like sitting with them, hearing how they see things, and sometimes letting them show me. Then I get to hand that experience to someone else. Best job in the world.
04 — Live & Upcoming
Where you can find me.
Screenings, premieres, and the occasional excuse to leave the edit bay. If you're around, come say hi. I'm easy to spot.

What it looks like from my side of the camera.
05 — Where it happened
Everywhere I've been.
A castle in England. A storage unit in Wisconsin. The Grand Canyon. Thirty-one places so far, and a camera bag that never really gets unpacked.
