2025 Tournament Highlights

Had an amazing time capturing the energy and drama of this year’s Hanebury squash tournament at Pickering! It’s always fun getting creative with video in such a fast-paced environment. Couldn’t be happier to combine two of my favorite things: playing squash and video editing!

Prom

When T was young, maybe 5, and into princesses, she wanted her bedroom painted close to the colour of this pink dress she is wearing. I did -everything- to talk her out of it. I thought the colour was… well…a LOT, and maybe she didn’t really understand how overwhelming it would be once her entire … Read more

The Long Game

Our team (of 4 players for the finals but 6 for the season plus our captain) won our division in squash singles in the Toronto & District league! This was a big deal for me. Let the record show that my very first year playing competitively in 2018/19 I did not win a single match … Read more

unsettled

I made this (above) with AI, which inspired this: We would have, had he lived long enough, retired to an airstream and travelled. That was the story anyway. I went along with it because it was as plausible as anything else. More plausible than what actually happened. But retirement was a long way off. We … Read more

[WARNING: CRIME FICTION]

I should probably state up front that I am someone who is extremely challenged by the idea of having to kill anything, (mosquitos being the exception). I have put down more than one animal, and it was extremely heartbreaking and difficult. I believed I was doing it for the right reason, but after witnessing a … Read more

The Lost Art of Waiting

This piece was originally conceived specifically to be viewed on instagram, if not on instagram or if instagram changes, this is/was a feed-based platform where the video would autoplay and virtually be indistinguishable from a still image. The idea was that you’d see it, and the subtle movement would cause you to to wonder if … Read more

But Is It a Gas Station? Shoot! (Part 2)

Part one is here. You’ll see I strayed a ways away from my original concept. I don’t know if there is anything I have done so far that caused me as much thinking. Of course, there is always the thinking around the concept, and then the thinking around the build, and then the shooting and … Read more
