I had a lot of fun working on this short video for work. I’m a big fan of photographing skateboarders, but this was my first time taking video. Really enjoyed playing around with a more feature-like editing style than I normally don’t have the opportunity to do.

Perhaps you don’t know, but I love cats. As in, it’s somewhat embarrassing how much I love cats. I have two, and the first I adopted from the Humane Society of South Mississippi. I would have done the same for the second but she appeared under my balcony, taking the adoption process into her own hands (or paws). With that said, when an assignment comes up involving the HSSM I’m usually the one jumping at it.

Favorite line: “I’m really goodActually I think my Facebook description is Chief Unnecessary Organ Remover at the Humane Society. That’s basically what I do. I remove unnecessary parts.”
You can watch the video here.

Also, the dog was adorable.
