Last year about this same time of year, a film crew from the BYUTV show called “Artful” came to my office for a couple days. They followed me around and interviewed me about my work and how I got started and why I do what I do.
If I’m not taking pictures, I love talking about taking pictures so I really enjoyed the process. And even though it’s hard to see myself on camera, I also enjoyed how the piece came together. One of the most exciting parts about the episode, is that the producers wanted to revisit a family I photographed 12 years ago that had quite a unique story. Following up with them years later was a pretty moving experience for me, but I don’t want to give anything away. If you’d like to take a look at the episode, you can see it here.
My part of the episode starts at 12:18, or, you could also watch the beautiful profile that comes before mine, the artist Behnaz Karjoo.
Here’s a trailer from the episode.
