The love we have for photography and filmmaking is second only to the love we have for each other. For Oscar Night, we decided to get dressed up to celebrate with friends and family, and just prior to the show, we snapped a few photographs of one another. Soon, simple pictures became experiments in lighting and minor shots became complex set-ups. Color, lighting, even the way our heads were tilted, all became aspects of the image we were capturing.
Caroline was beginning to learn more, not only about the lighting set up, but how to be a director as well. All the while, I was teaching as much as the few memories from film school would bring back clear, but also rekindling my love for directing; setting up shots and capturing a single image that matches one that I pictured in my mind.
Despite a daily photographic regimen, our focus has been on writing our other projects, leaving little time to appreciate and experiment with visual arts like photography. It was a fantastic escape and inspirational learning experience.
