In January of 2020, I went to Liberia with a team of seven. As the Director of Photography, I felt responsible for capturing the entire film and making it as beautiful as possible. As a result, I was putting a lot of stress and anxiety on myself, mostly since I was the only freshman in the group.
This taught me that it is just as important to experience the story unfold and capture the experience. In my second year of learning film, I can see how much I have grown since then, but I can also see that I did not need to fear. I need to rest in God and trust that he will help me tell the stories that need to be told.
