A winter morning in Vienna
Apr 1, 2017

Over the past 12 weeks, I have filmed 4 families, and as I edit each session, it never ceases to amaze me how truly unique and different and special each family is.

When I begin selecting the music, every time, the music that helps tell the story has to be different. Because, each family is different, and each session is unique. Each family has it's own rhythm, and its own energy. It is just uncanny.

Finding a kindergarten in Vienna
Mar 8, 2017

One of the hardest parts of being a parent is leaving your child in the care of someone you trust. This is hard enough when you are in your home country. It is doubly hard when you find yourself in a foreign country where you may or may not speak the language. If you’re struggling to find a kindergarten in Vienna, please know that you are not alone.
