ARTIST'S STATEMENT

 

There exists a definite border between photography and cinematography and my goal is to overcome this division. Even though it has never been my priority to accurately reproduce history, I have always attempted to convey the spirit of the era during in which these legendary automobiles were produced.

The majority of my photographs are the result of a classically arranged photo shoot. The actors, costumes, hair, makeup, setting, and props are all fashioned to the standards of the era. It is not a retro, but a genre inspired by retro. I approach every theme like a little movie production shot with a camera. Ideally, each single picture should tell a story, although I like the fact that the photographs sometimes seem odd and leave room for imagination.
