すべては、スノーボードやスケートボードの映像や雑誌から始まりました。また、地元のBMXライダーたちを撮影していたクルーの一人が、私が初めてカメラを手にするきっかけを与えてくれました。

常に学ぶべきことがあるという考え方です。昔の写真を見返すと、「くそ、もっとうまくできたのに、ここをああすればよかった」と思うことがあります。新しいテクニックを探求したり、新しいアイデアを試したりするのが止められません。

It plays a big part. Constantly being on the road, adjusting to climate changes and new time zones every other week takes it’s toll and can easily ruin you physically and mentally. I always make sure I get a good night’s sleep and eat healthy. Whenever I’m home I see my osteopath or a massage therapist who take care of my body and help relieve stress. And although I work out at home I can never really manage to find extra time and energy to exercise when I’m on my work trips. Luckily, my job keeps my lifestyle active as I snowboard, skate or surf all the time, but I’m trying to learn how to include a couple work out sessions in-between.

It has taught me patience and to believe in what I do.

To be themselves, to be curious, to never give up and be passionate about what they do.

Practice and make mistakes. If you want this to become your career try to figure out what the purpose of your photography is. Put your heart into it. And just know that photography takes time, just like anything else.
