TURNING REALITY INTO PIXELS AND VISIONS INTO EMMYS

Video. Photography. Design. Built for brands that need real output, not more ideas.

VISION

Most people think it’s just a camera.

It’s not.

It’s planning, direction, problem solving, and making sure what we create actually works for your business. And sometimes its just capturing the moment when you see it.

I’ve been doing this in real environments for over a 15 years. Newsrooms, campaigns, corporate teams, agencies and now leading brand and creative at Torc Robotics.

If you need content that looks good and gets used, you’re in the right place.

SERVICES

I don’t approach projects like a typical freelancer.

I approach each brand like I'm part of the team. Organically capturing what really goes on behind the scenes keeping everything as casual as we can. That means understanding what you actually need before we ever pick up a camera. Who it’s for. Where it lives. What it needs to do.

On the technical side, I run Sony systems , DJI, and the full Adobe stack, including C4D, for editing , motion, and finishing. 
Audio matters. Lighting matters. Workflow matters. If something breaks, I fix it. If it’s slow, I streamline it.

Creative-wise, I keep it simple.

Clear story. Clean execution. No wasted time.

Commercial shoots, documentary-style content, fast-turn around social, internal brand work. I’ve done a lot but strive to keep learning, and I know how to adjust based on what you actually need.

ABOUT ME

"A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one..."

After graduating from Florida State University, my career began in the fast pace environment of news and creative services, where "yes" was the only answer. For eight years, I touched every part of the frame. From communications engineering and lighting to reporting and editing. This "all-in" foundation shaped me into a versatile storyteller who understands how the technical gears work.

Today, my focus is at the intersection of brand strategy and high-end visual execution. Whether I’m behind a cinema camera or architecting a brand’s visual identity, my goal is to blend technical precision with human connection. When I’m not building brands, I’m navigating life in Virginia with my wife, our two boys, and a few dogs—constantly reminded that the best stories are the ones we live. Chaotic or not.

OPPORTUNITIES

If you’ve got something in mind, I can help bring it to life.
