I didn’t start out looking to be a photographer. I was just trying to figure out what I was actually good at, and photography is what people kept pointing back to before I noticed it myself. Their reactions are what made me pay attention and the more I paid attention, the sharper my eye for a frame got.

The name comes from a simple idea: every photo has four sides. The fifth frame is what falls outside them the angle people usually miss, the shot that almost doesn’t get taken. That’s still what I’m looking for, six years in.

I shoot a mix of things; nature, portraits, couples but what hasn’t changed is what I actually care about: seeing someone’s face when a photo of them finally looks right.
