They say being a perfectionist isn’t always a good trait to have, however cinematic videography is the only exception to that statement.
I’ve always had an eye for detail with a strong desire to produce quality every time. Whether that is maintaining my home, car, designing the garden, or within my professional career, aesthetics and the end product always seemed to matter. Initially, I started out in photography. I loved the idea of capturing stills in the moment, editing, finalising and then sharing my work around for feedback. I started to feel less energy coming from a still image. The idea of reminiscing using recorded footage seemed to spark an inner emotion that I hadn’t experienced before.
Growing up I was very close to my grandmother. I was always conscious of her age, and wanted to start getting as much archived footage as I could. This allowed me to reflect back on our younger years. I thought, what if I can relive this moment in 10,15, 20 years time, and literally observe the raw emotion, see past and present relatives again, watch reactions, laugh at how style and technology has changed over the years. Maybe even have a joke about the fashion styles at a point in time. From there on in, it just clicked. I was hooked. It mattered, and I knew I was good at it.
I started to capture the memories and emotions from places that were close to my heart. Creating holiday highlight films became a hobby, which I then started to dedicate more time to edit, and research better techniques and software to use. This became more professional over the years and has led me to today, where I now specialise in capturing and creating memories. It really does matter.
My creative style is unique and combines a cinematic smooth transitional look, coupled with a raw emotional edge to create a truly immersive film. I always keep an open mind on different recording styles and editing techniques, which allow me to diversify the end film and cater for each unique setting
