Technical Shooting Mastery
I aim to shoot my photos like I am still constrained by the number of exposures I have left on my analogue films. Discerning, with the idea that each click counts. Releasing the shutter should happen only when colours, lighting, and composition are as good as I can get them. No scene should require more than three takes – a few more perhaps when moving objects or people are involved.
This principle requires me to stay present, observant, and fully attuned to the ever-changing scene ahead of the lens. It demands attention – to not just look at what can be seen but to also predict what’s going to happen next. Every second ‘holds’ the promise of an image. It’s my aim to catch the second that’s best – when everything in front of me comes together in some state of perfection.
Clear Inspiration, Aspiration, and Intention
Something about that
Minimal Post-Production
I believe that my photos ought to be taken before the camera – not created in post-production. They should already be 95% ‘there’ when they are written as a digital file inside my camera. Then, most of the time that remains, I ought to spend on styling instead of correcting.
Functional Framing
Something about that
