Semuanya bermula dari film dan majalah snowboard dan skateboard. Ada juga satu orang dalam kelompok yang memotret pengendara BMX lokal dan menginspirasi saya untuk mendapatkan kamera pertama saya.

Sekadar ide bahwa selalu ada hal baru untuk dipelajari. Kadang saya melihat foto-foto lama saya dan berpikir, 'Astaga, saya bisa melakukan lebih baik, atau saya akan mengubah ini dan itu'. Saya tidak bisa berhenti mengeksplorasi teknik-teknik baru dan mencoba ide-ide baru.

It plays a big part. Constantly being on the road, adjusting to climate changes and new time zones every other week takes it’s toll and can easily ruin you physically and mentally. I always make sure I get a good night’s sleep and eat healthy. Whenever I’m home I see my osteopath or a massage therapist who take care of my body and help relieve stress. And although I work out at home I can never really manage to find extra time and energy to exercise when I’m on my work trips. Luckily, my job keeps my lifestyle active as I snowboard, skate or surf all the time, but I’m trying to learn how to include a couple work out sessions in-between.

It has taught me patience and to believe in what I do.

To be themselves, to be curious, to never give up and be passionate about what they do.

Practice and make mistakes. If you want this to become your career try to figure out what the purpose of your photography is. Put your heart into it. And just know that photography takes time, just like anything else.
