My Photo scholarship 2010 entry

Worldwide | Wednesday, September 22, 2010 | 5 photos


The first person I thanked in the credits of my last film was my high school photography teacher. “Special Thanks to Nat Martin: who has helped to expose the true appreciation to be held towards the life within a still image.” During high school, I took eleven photography courses, including ones where I commuted to Boston on weekends and summers to take pre-college courses at an art school. Photography remains the dominant love in my life. I have always had a passion for developing (pun intended) a story, evoking emotion, or capturing the beauty in the unexpected. I have appreciated every experience that I work towards when it comes to the art of the image. I went to school for film in hopes of continuing my photography skills through a different medium, even though I continue photographing constantly. I am into many different kinds of imagery: a few examples include experimental, documentary, and a more contrived yet articulated staging of aesthetics. I have done extremely well in my first two years at college as I have gotten many films into the school’s festival. I was one out of three of the chosen cinematographers on the college’s feature length documentary for it’s centennial year. I came to film school to improve my artistic imagery, help people through documentaries, and travel. I desire photographing, making documentaries, and filming different cultures, experiences, and conditions. I continue chasing these important dreams in my life, even with little money.
Out of the hundreds, if not thousands of photographs that I sifted through, I have chosen five. I believe it is stronger to show the imagery without a written explanation. I love when the world I capture is analyzed purely by what I produce. A “place” to me tends to be defined by associations and feelings.
