It's said, 'a picture is worth 1,000 words.'

But are they the right 'words' to best capture a moment?

A photo is a decisive moment from the here and now. Just as important, and often more significant, is the story that's brought you to this moment - and what it means.

Work with me to capture the whole story behind your important moments.

There's more to a moment than meets the eye

IT TAKES RETROSPECT & CURIOSITY, MEANINGFUL WORDS, COMPELLING VIDEO, CLEAN AUDIO AND DECISIVE IMAGES TO CAPTURE THE SIGNIFICANCE OF A MOMENT.

The best 'words' are captured through

IMAGES. VIDEO. AUDIO. WORDS.

Let's work together to tell the whole story - not just what it looks like, but what it means.

There's the moment to capture...

And all details that brought you here

ISN'T ABOUT ME

Hi, my name is Sean Openshaw and I love to tell stories.

These moments are about you.

They're about who you are, and how you got here - not just what you look like.

Let's work together to capture and discover what that means.

To capture this moment, it will take work on both our parts.

It may not take 'blood, sweat and tears,' but will take sweat and tears.

I'M COMMITTED TO CAPTURE THEM WITH YOU, IF YOU ARE!

Latest Stories

I combine photographs, words and video to create compelling and interesting stories. I’m drawn to stories about news, weddings, sports teams, dance/theater and especially personality profiles about the people I meet.

Interviews can be fun

Let's put down the list of questons and just have a conversation

"I was touched that I was able to tell my story in this fashion. I'm a writer, so I tell my story a lot with the written word, but I don't often do this kind of interfacing, and I usually feel awkward when I do. But not this time. It's been really cool.

During the interview, you asked me some questions nobody's ever asked me, and that I really had to think about. I learned some things about myself through this process, so that's really amazing.

If you learn something new about yourself at 44, that's kind of a cool thing."
