Welcome to Depth of Field 🎥

Hi, I’m Nora: a filmmaker, word-sayer, and picture-taker. Depth of Field is a monthly collection of my musings about life, cameras, and life behind the camera. I’m so glad to have you here.

If there’s anything I’ve learned so far as a documentarian, it’s that I can’t promise I know where the plot will take us, but I’m so excited to have you join me in seeing where it will lead us.

So gear up, fellow amazing person, and get your camera (real or imagined) ready. Can you hear it, too? An adventure is calling.

I can't wait to share my stories with you and to hear your thoughts, insights, and reflections along the way. I ask more questions than I find answers, and I’m okay with that.
