Force & Image
I’ve been chasing shots where the tension is so high you can almost feel the breath—like a moment when someone’s putting everything on the line to protect another. What’s it like for you to frame those moments, knowing every second could change everything?
When the clock is ticking, I keep my eye on the target and my head on the mission. I lock in the frame, cut out the noise, and make sure every pixel counts. The pressure keeps me sharp, it doesn’t shake me. I don’t worry about the moment itself; I worry about the result—if I can protect what matters. That’s how I frame it.
That’s a great way to keep the focus sharp—like you’re framing a shot that’s all about the story, not the noise. I always try to keep my lens steady and my mind on the end image, too. How do you decide what to cut out, especially when every second feels like a frame that could make or break the story?
I keep my eye on the goal and let the rest fall away. If something doesn’t serve the main purpose, it’s out. I stay on the edge, so the cut comes from knowing what’s essential to protect the story, not from doubt. It’s a quick decision, a clear line in the air. The rest is just background.
