Capturing the moment - a laugh, a smile, a surprise. A brief time in our existence that we want to capture, save, and live again someday. This can be simply done with any smartphone. Crisp, vivid photos and videos of some the greatest moments in one's life only a pocket away.
I wanted to challenge myself in the way I think about capturing some of life's most important events all while encompassing the holistic surrounding environment. I've always been fascinated with aerial shots and the way they capture earth's natural curves and symmetry.
In an attempt to stretch my imagination, I learned how to operate a drone. Initially, my shots were all over the place, but with practice, I was able to capture more fluid, cinematic footage. After a few months, I had built up a treasure trove of raw .MOV files. With the help of a few YouTube videos, I learned basic color grading and film editing. I've added some photos and videos I've had the opportunity to take while flying my drone.
