Creating A Photojournaist

Creating a Photojournalist is a deeply personal documentary that spans five decades, tracing the life of photojournalist and filmmaker Erik Castro. From a childhood shared with five siblings in 1970s Los Angeles—captured tenderly by his mother’s 8mm camera—to his evolution into a seasoned visual storyteller documenting life from a small town in Sonoma County, California, the film offers a rare look into a career shaped by both creative drive and the responsibilities of parenthood.
