First Take (2014)

Stories are shaped through movement, repetition, and time spent observing rather than directing. Attention is given to transitions, gestures, and the spaces between moments. Visual decisions respond to real conditions, allowing meaning to surface gradually. Rhythm and pacing remain flexible, guided by what unfolds rather than expectation. Details accumulate quietly, forming connections that feel lived rather than constructed. The process values patience, clarity, and restraint. Each project develops its own pace, shaped by people and place. What remains is a sense of continuity rather than conclusion.
Work is grounded in long-term engagement and trust. Environments are treated as active elements, influencing tone and narrative direction. In Melbourne Documentary, stories are approached with openness, allowing uncertainty to exist within the frame. Structure emerges through observation rather than control. By remaining attentive to change and context, the work avoids simplification. The aim is not to resolve, but to document presence with honesty and care.
