Despite creativity not being a normal job path in Bermudaā¦
i still chose it & i would do it again
Every frame i shoot is for Little Dion, who just wanted to tell stories.
He didnāt know what being a filmmaker was, he just wanted to share stories with the world
One of the reasons i create today is for him, to make him proud and to prove that chasing your dreams is never a waste of time
If you keep chasing that dream youāre gonna get there āš½
3 months of being married to my best friend š«¶š½
Canāt express how grateful we are to everyone who was able to be part of our day. We literally have TOOO many photos to post all of them thanks to the amazing @tristan.narraway šš½ so these are a selection of some of our favorites
3 months down. A lifetime to go š«°š½

Week In The Life āš½
Iāve been wanting to do something like this for a whileā¦
Last week Sunday I saw a post from @BennettLooper and just decided to full send it and invited @JakeWFilms to do the same with me āļø
This is just a peek into what a week can look like for me. This week was on the hectic side but not overly so:
1. One of my favourite frames from the week in Flattās
2. I love to start the week with coffee from @lartisan.bm
3. Had a quick hang with the boys @he.is.dae & @eendlessambition
4. Late night editing session @ the studio
5. Got to shoot some interviews at Digital Finance Forum
6. Love me some bean bag chats
7. I donāt have a coffee addiction, I just love itā¦
8. We donāt get to sit down around a table often so itās always a treat when we do
9. Live posting is honestly something I would like to do more of š
10. @jakewfilms and I cooking something up on the move
11. No dryer at home means I gotta multitask and edit from the laundromat⦠might have to go back here and shoot
Will definitely be doing more of these. Might also have an announcement about something soon too š Stay Tuned

JUST GET TO THE LINE š£ļø
As someone who grew up playing sports, when I entered the creative world, I realised I had an unfair advantageā¦
There are things that youāre taught as an athlete, that youāre just not when youāre a creative. 1 of those being:
GET TO THE LINE ā¹š½āāļø
As creatives we get stuck in thinking everything has to be this BIG WIN.
Sometimes a win is as small as getting a free throw.
Is that as exciting? Fxck no.
Does it still get points on the board? Fxck yes.
So my message to all the creatives:
JUST GET TO THE LINE & WATCH ONE GO IN THE NET
Stop freaking out about the things that arenāt workingā¦
Focus on the things that you can control and take small wins when they come āš½
Honing Your Craft mattersā¦
But your craft is more than just how often youāre posting.
Your craft is more than the sum of your REPs.
Your craft is also all your lived experiences.
Your craft is actually directly tied to your experiences.
If youāre running short on stories to tell,
If youāre feeling like youāre about to burn outā¦
Itās okay to take a break, to actively rest.
Active Rest is key to a strong creative muscle āš½

No creative wants to dress ācorporateā
Part of the draw of being a creative entrepreneur is that you get to decide what you want to wear and how you present to the world.
But the second you show up looking ātoo creative,ā people start questioning if you can actually do the jobā¦
Hoodie? Sneakers? Headphones?
Suddenly itās a problem š
But at what point does ālooking professionalā just become performative?
And at what point does my work speak for itself?

Shoutout @jakewfilms for helping me get that focus pull
Iām always trying to get better about sharing perspective
Why canāt I post a video of my thoughts while drivingā¦
And also post a video of the same thoughts as a skitā¦
Thereās actually no reason, so I will š
Expect to see this in GreeneLIT at some point š
I wear a lot of hats and itās impossible to sum it up in 90s
But here goes an honest tryā¦
Also please donāt ask when the next episode of GreeneLIT is coming š
Just know that itās on its way š

Being able to showcase creativity and imagination is exactly what we want for our interns, and they did just that.
We are so happy with the final result and look forward to everyone seeing it on our YouTube page this Friday!
