About

I believe that there is a beauty in every person, that there is a universal nature in humanity and that people across the world are similar in their search for love and human connection. When a human connection is formed, even for an instant, this beauty manifests itself onto a person’s face and into the world. It can be in a quick glance of the eyes, a loving smile or a tearful exchange. As a photographer and filmmaker, I strive to capture these moments.

With my work, I hope to chip away at cultural misunderstandings in order to close the gap between ‘us’ and ‘them’. I hope to provide a glimpse of this beauty that exists within each person. And most of all, I hope to show certain truths that dispel stereotypes and unify people in the human experience.

Ian Pollard is a film maker from Austin, Texas with a degree from the University of Texas in Radio-Television-Film.
