I started taking pictures when I was eight years old and have not stopped.... I have always felt that photography as documentation of an event is incredibly important for the next generation looking at the pictures. It is not about taking a photograph, it’s all about capturing a feeling, the emotion. It’s about that moment, stopping action, so when you look at the picture tomorrow, or in a week, month, year or decade, you can smile and say to yourself: “I remember that!”I spend a lot of time photographing events for non-profit organizations... I feel that giving back is one of the most important things we can do.
