For @iloveugly . In 2018 when I was 19 this brand took me under their wing and let me work for them for 2 years. They pulled me out my business degree at uni and taught me that you can have a career as a creative. Even though I don’t work in the fashion industry anymore 8 years later I’m still so grateful to V and the team for taking a chance on a clueless teenager back then.

Late last year I was honoured to receive the New Zealand Emerging Cinematographer Award + Silver Awards in Commerical and Short Films at @nzcine . 25 taught me the most. It had the biggest highs and lows. Shot for some of my favourite artists, travelled the world with my friends and got to play with cameras for fun. More importantly blessed to grow and work alongside my best friends and colleagues in this industry. 🖤
