Who Am I.




As you know, I am moving to the East coast in three weeks.

Recently, I have been asked to shoot many of my friends' wedding.

More are getting married this summer than last or the one before.

Alas, I have to tell them, I'm moving.

And I feel sad, not because I don't get to edit all those photos,

because I won't be able to share in the memory with them.

And then I wonder, and realize,

The camera for me is a vehicle to be closer to you.

Yes, I will use that through words, but life is too short to just document

with words.

As you have probably noticed. I will use headbands and home made videos,

i will photograph to keep the closest.

But let at night.

I lay awake with a sense of unease.

I understand who I am

and I understand who I am not.

But I often times identify who I am but what I do.


The greatest things I have learned about life and myself were found when
I served others, thought about where I came from.

this changes me.
because I don't know if I will always sell headbands, photos and videos,
but I know who I am.
