A few years after high school, I was working long days in a warehouse and dreaming of something more creative. I started learning music production in my free time, and before long, I was producing full-time — creating YouTube covers, releasing music, and chasing a passion that lit me up.

To film my performances and create album artwork, I picked up a used Canon T3i from a pawn shop — and instantly fell in love with the camera. Before I knew it, I was spending more time filming and editing than making music, and I realized I’d found a new creative outlet that felt like home.

Looking back, the signs were always there. As a kid, I’d set up my family’s VHS camcorder to record Lego car crashes in slow motion — I was already framing shots and telling little stories. Now, I get to do that in a much more meaningful way: capturing real, honest moments for couples on one of the most important days of their lives. And I truly couldn’t imagine doing anything else.
