Sometimes my fashion pictures can look a little bit like documentary style pictures. So having a camera in my hand was normal.

For me, moving from photography to film was very easy.

Fashion has also been a great outlet, and I'd like to do more fashion photography in the future. I also photograph a lot of artists.
