So, I think in my former life I was a private detective or a psychotherapist. I am interested in people and their emotions. I live those funny, sad, romantic, dramatic, angsty, exciting moments that only life can write. And film. Every film is like a journey. I was probably an explorer, always on the move in search of a new world, still unknown to me. Every shoot is a new adventure that I love to throw myself into professionally with lots of curiosity, openness and energy. Even though the shooting days are long, I share them with colleagues who are also passionate about the story of a film. And I want to bring this story to life through my camera work. So it's the love of film and life that brought me to the camera. So what's next? "The adventure is out there." (Up, 2009)
