Money slipped under the door of a man struggling to support his family brings about a Christmas miracle.
When you’re a freelance cameraman like I am, you can’t always pick and choose your assignments. Often, you accept work not out of any particular affinity you have for the subject but because you have bills to pay and a family to feed.

That’s why I was pumped when I got a call from a local client last April. They were selected to shoot a documentary on Paul Young, a novelist in my area who wrote the surprise best seller The Shack. They asked if I’d be their cameraman.
