Documentary production at Dunfermline Abbey, Scotland. 2017
Backstory
As an illustrator, graphic designer, and photographer, my dad owned a Macintosh computer, Sony 8mm camcorder, and Nikon F35 SLR when I was born. I was always fascinated with cameras, but it wasn't until one magical day at age 15 that I played around with video clips in iMovie and arranged them into something more.
Weeks later, I hit the limits of iMovie and decided to take a path towards the biggest purchase of my life yet; Final Cut Studio. A year later, it was a Sony HDV camera and then a Nikon DSLR. I discovered my calling as a third-generation artist.
Fast-forward 15 years studying photography, cinema, and story, directing hundreds of projects, and investing heavily in the tools of the trade; I'm a filmmaker for hire.
Trajectory
I believe the power of story must be wielded with great care when channeled through the visual arts. Stories can speak directly into hearts, and they have been used throughout history to shape entire cultures for good, and for evil.
Armed with a worldview steeped in covenant theology, I desire to worship the Lord with cinematic stories emphasizing the beautiful narratives He has created for us to recognize, be attracted to, and savor.
I’ve worked with small businesses, content creators, documentary producers, and musicians to showcase their stories and craft. At least, that’s what I’m doing right now in this epic adventure. And I’m almost always ready for an exciting rabbit trail.
