Jen’s Story: a patient testimonial

My greatest pleasure in life is drawing out someone’s story when they’ve endured hardships, trials and/or traumatic events. My goal is always to let the story come naturally, and capture the real and raw emotions associated with a person’s experience. After interviewing Jen, we joined her family for a walk through the woods and a spell at the community pool: places that mean so much to Jen, who has learned to appreciate every moment in life. I believe that capturing a story like this honors the storyteller by imparting value to them. It allows the teller to process their trauma and pain. Expressing the story helps them connect the dots of their life in meaningful ways. Marrying the narrative with poignant scenes creates a deeply resonant piece.
