“Look for something interesting to photograph.”

  • If your life were a movie, what would the title be?

“Big Fish by Tim Burton.”

The Pint & Pigout, Moorfield Farm, Grey Goose Game Lodge and also Oppi Berg Animal Farm.”

  • What’s the weirdest or funniest thing that’s ever happened to you?

I once saw a guy try to spin empty liquor bottles like a juggler to his adoring crowd. It ended in tears but was hilarious to watch. I also saw a guy do a striptease while dancing to the band—it was so out of place but hilarious and weird at once.”

  • If you could swap lives with anyone for a day, who would it be and why?

“Carl Sagan. I would love to have experienced being inside his brilliant mind for a day.”

  • Dogs, cats, or something more exotic?

“All of them!”
