CIAN'S ADOPTION STORY. KOREA ADOPTION PHOTOGRAPHER.

It was hard not to immediately fall in love with this family.  They've been on a long journey to adopt their son, Cian, from Korea, and I wanted to try something a little different, something that has been nagging at me for a while now.  I worked for a time as an editor and associate producer at a public television station in New York to pay my way through college what seems a lifetime ago.  I was a filmmaker before I ever ventured into photography, and in many ways that has informed my storytelling as a photographer.  I'm constantly thinking of narrative structure as I shoot and edit, not just pretty photos or moments.  While I don't miss the countless hours patchworking video footage together to create a cohesive story, I do think that the combination of audio and visual elements can come together to create something extraordinary, something more than just the sum of its parts.
