Bio
Kristen Haynes
Laura worked as a cinematographer on several different projects that we worked on together, including one I directed, and I highly recommend both her skills as a cinematographer and her dedication as a crew member. As a cinematographer, she showed a great eye for detail, creating visually interesting shots that met my needs and expectations. She always had great suggestions to improve a shot, whether it was to combine shots, move a shot to a more dynamic angle, or to add movement when the shot needed it. She also listened to what I needed, took notes well and incorporated them quickly. Laura went above and beyond to help me realize my story and make the project as great as possible. She spent many hours with me ahead of the shoot date working on the shot list and the visual design for the film. She helped me put together the crew, and helped me find interesting locations that worked for the film. On set, she was a strong leader, helping to direct the crew to get shots ready as efficiently as possible without sacrificing on vision with clear commands. She always is professional and has a great attitude, and I'd definitely work with her again and recommend her for other projects.

Laura Jansen exemplifies the utmost passion, drive, and commitment to her work as a Cinematographer. After working with Ms. Jansen on a number of projects, I've had the pleasure of creating art with her through every step of the production process. From day one to the final "that's a wrap," she proves that she's a true professional. On my thesis film, "Ben," Laura went the extra mile to not only capture crisp, captivating images, but to also capture my vision and bring it to life. Ask anyone on set who's on top of their game, and everyone will tell you Laura. She is mature beyond her years and is always striving for more knowledge. I look forward to working with Ms. Jansen again very soon.
