A few months ago, Lissette reached out: “I’m proposing in 2 hours and my photographer just backed out… are you available?”
These are the moments you show up for. I grabbed my gear, drove straight there, and prayed for good lighting! lol
What started as a last-minute ask turned into one of the most meaningful shoots I’ve been a part of. Grateful to have captured it 🤍
Meet the writer & director, Lissette Lendeborg (@lissettelendeborg ), a storyteller drawn to the messy, complicated ways we try to connect — especially within queer and multicultural spaces.
Her work has been recognized by the Kennedy Center and published in Litro Magazine, and at the core of everything she makes is a commitment to honest, character-driven stories.
“What Friends Do” is a short drama about loneliness, intimacy, and the versions of ourselves we become while searching for connection.
Standing In: A Series
Depicting the most unserious stand-in, consistently shorter than the talent 😤; cannot stand still for too long so you better get your marks. -a performance piece (please find my face on the fifth slide, thank you)

Made a movie!! With THE craziest people. But truly love what I do, love the people I get to meet, the friends and memories I get to make along the way, and all the lessons learned. See you guys on the next one !

Seeing myself through someone else’s eyes when they capture moments we share, is the ultimate honor. This was during the NoMi shoot we did earlier this year
Y’all let me First AD for a whole scene and i forget how to behave !!!! I couldn’t possibly have had a better team by my side for a moment that was beyond an honor and a privilege!! And i even featured a picture of the 3 lunatics that let it happen. Really though, they are the reason i could confidently be my best every single day ✨💖
