a personal note :

Hi, I’m April. As a filmmaker, I have spent years honing my creative expertise as a visual storyteller. I approach my work with a keen awareness to the details of each story. I believe great storytellers are collectors of emotions, sounds, environments and moments. It is my job to connect the viewer to those feelings.

I consider it a privilege to be invited into personal spaces and I delicately balance beautiful imagery with authentic moments.
