one of my favourite things I’ve ever shot

been obsessed with the textures of consumer camcorders & being able to utilize the interplay of harsh coloured light and texture created a beautiful atmosphere to mirror the harmonies within the music by @_jbats

full roster of the cameras I used to shoot freakfest

wanted to challenge myself with a bunch of fun weird non traditional cameras, most I haven’t used before, to capture videos my favourite event of the year (posting in batches soon). I could get really sappy about this event & how important it is but I’ll whatever do that later

Puppets and film and music oh my ! long awaited BRAIDS music video post. I loved making this so much. So many creative people made this happen. actually took a village. A lovely, dedicated, hardworking village. I am so thankful for everyone who believed in my vision and was willing to see it through. This project has been a reminder of how important it is to follow through with your passion projects, to let your soul fill up with love and let that lead you.❤️ extremely grateful
