As a photographer I strive to find the poignant in the commonplace, particularly within the domestic realm and the sites I venture to with my family. The ongoing related bodies of work “Life is a series of small moments” and “Visiting” touch on this notion of instilling ordinary settings with an air of cinematic allegory and a sense of the unknown. During routine situations (while taking care of my two daughters at home, or as we attempt to break the mold by going to a museum or theme park) there is always that instant when something stands out and demands documentation. I look for those synchronistic moments where I discover the narrative thread contained in a single image, capturing chance circumstances as I seek to raise the quotidian to a thing of wonder.
