Visual Shoegaze

Visual Shoegaze Visual Shoegaze is my way of uncovering the hidden magic within the everyday. I move the camera itself.

This subtle shift doesn’t introduce anything that wasn’t already present in the world around us—it simply reveals it, seen through the right lens.. Through long exposure and intentional camera movement, I explore a technique I call Reverse Light Painting, where, instead of moving light in front of a stationary lens, I move the camera itself. This subtle shift doesn’t introduce anything that wasn’t

already present in the world around us—it simply reveals it, seen through the right lens. Each image becomes a kind of memory, imperfect and raw, like the way we recall moments in our minds, colored by feeling rather than fact. Inspired by abstract impressionism and the immersive moods of shoegaze music, my work seeks to capture not just what is seen, but what is felt. I aim to create visual spaces where mystery and clarity coexist, allowing viewers to project their own emotions and experiences into the images. These imperfect records of the world reflect our own capacity for memory, bridging the gap between what we know and what we long to remember. Through Visual Shoegaze, I find a doorway to a fantastic surreality, a place where I long to be and feel what I long to feel. This process is about embracing the unpredictable, where chance and intention meet, capturing an atmosphere of beauty that might otherwise go unnoticed. For me, these works are living, breathing records of light and motion—intimate portraits of the everyday as it transforms into the extraordinary, inviting viewers to pause, connect, and see beyond the surface.

Underoath (August 2026)

No photopass? No Olympus? No problem.

Majority of my shots last night were taken on the DXO One. Hands down my favourite camera. DxO Labs It’s ever so inviting.

But Underoath, Chris, Tim, Aaron, Grant, Spencer… now that you see what I can do without a photo pass- how’s about seeing if one can be found for me tonight? Or perhaps at Toronto date in the near future??? 🤔Either way I got my ticket and love ya all no matter what.

I really have to thank my friends from the pit last night. They knew how much I love this band and allowed me a spot at the barricade to shoot from. After their set finished I returned the spot to its original owner.

…but not before I grabbed a drumstick! 🤯🔥🖤🙌

What do you think guys- should they give me a shot with a photo pass and see what I can do with my OM SYSTEM ?

I don’t think I ever posted these. I often get caught up in what I wish things were rather than appreciating them for all that they are. Then months or years go by and you find them again and think “these were so beautiful, why didn’t I appreciate them at the time” and you mourn all the time you lost. At least with photos they remain the same forever. But for everything else… we never get that time back. These were from Sept ‘25. 11 months ago.
