WHO’S TAKING A LOOK AT YOUR WEBSITE WILL SEE LOT’S VERY NATURALLY TAKEN PHOTOS WITH COOL VIBES. WHAT DO YOU LIKE MOST ABOUT SHOOTING PHOTOS?

AS THE WORLDWIDE SITUATION IS PRETTY HARD RIGHT NOW, WE’RE WONDERING HOW YOU’RE FEELING ABOUT THE SITUATION AND HOW IT IS FOR YOU AS PHOTOGRAPHER? Well it has been pretty hard for all creators especi-

photos. Its a peaceful way to get into my zone and clear my head as I walk for a few miles just going through a few rolls of film.

WHAT DO YOU LIKE MOST ABOUT WORKING AS A PHOTOGRAPHER?

IF YOU’RE PLANNING A NEW SHOOT, WHAT ARE THE FIRST THINGS YOU DO BEFORE SHOOTING DAY? I usually get inspiration together and create a mood board for whoever I‘m shooting with, then

DID THE RECENT SITUATION CHANGE SOMETHING ABOUT HOW YOU’RE PRODUCING EDITORIALS, PLAN PHOTOSHOOTINGS OR WORK WITH CLIENTS? It definitely slowed me down and I don‘t work with as many clients as I use to and as far as shooting for myself I really try not to work with that many new people. Planning the shoots have been a little harder being that if I need to book a studio or anything like that I need to be a little farther in advance but that‘s about all.

WHAT QUESTION YOU’D LIKE TO HAVE AN ANSWER FOR? None that I can think of.

ANY ADVICE FOR SOME OF THE NEWCOMERS OUT THERE GOING THROUGH THESE HARD TIMES AS WELL? Honestly just keep working, keep creating, keep focusing on getting to know yourself and finding your style. There‘s no time limit for this stuff take your time and create something that truly matters to yourself.
