I began photographing at Schweitzer Church in late 2024, working within live services rather than staged environments.

The space presents constant constraints. Low light, mixed color temperatures, fast movement, and moments that cannot be repeated. The work depends on reacting rather than directing, and on anticipating how light and people will intersect.

Much of this photography is about observation. Watching how individuals and groups occupy the room, how attention shifts, and how atmosphere builds over time. The camera becomes a way of tracking those changes without interrupting them.

I am interested in the relationship between light and presence. How lighting design, architecture, and movement shape the emotional tone of a space. These images are less about documentation and more about capturing the feeling of being there.

Photographing in this context has reinforced a disciplined way of working. Staying unobtrusive, responding quickly, and trusting instinct over setup. The goal is to remain invisible while still making intentional images.

This body of work continues to grow as part of an ongoing exploration of live environments and real moments.

But also, Photography is about having fun.
