Mostly – I aim to make videos that aren’t boring. Appropriately sentimental yes, boring – no. I basically only make two kinds of videos:
Wedding Videos or Home Movie Music Videos
Admittedly – my wedding videos look and feel like home movies set to music. Energetic-like you know? Always striving for that perfectly-imperfect quality that’s sometimes difficult to achieve when filming a live event. Especially events such as weddings where for some strange reason – the actual goal is to have everything go according to plan, with no hiccups or surprises. Which is an odd thing considering the best weddings always have surprises if you know what I mean.
I’ve been making these music videos ever since digital cameras started existing and I don’t think I’ll stop anytime soon. Life moves pretty fast you know? Being present while recording it is always a challenge. Rarely, rarely, rarely have I ever felt bad that I caught something on ‘film’ – because everything is fleeting and just like the replicant says – lost like tears in the rain.*
