I’m a director of photography based in San Francisco and I love visual storytelling.
The Interview
Sure, b-roll is important, but what about the a-roll!? Before we can get to the hard hitting questions, it’s important to make the subject look good, look comfortable, and look like they belong in the environment. With hundreds of interviews under by belt, I’m comfortable setting up solo or helming a large crew. I am equipped for a two camera setup, complete with movement on b-cam, lights, audio, and a sunny disposition.
From the SKy
Because sometimes the best angle is 400 feet up. Part 107 certified since 2020, I've navigated the bureaucratic skies of FAA airspace authorizations, secured fancy insurance to buzz Sonoma Raceway, and talked my way into three coveted Burning Man flight permits. Whether it's a sweeping aerial reveal or a precise tracking shot, I bring the same attention to detail at altitude that I do on the ground — just with better views and lighter luggage.
A Matter of time
Timelapses are a game of patience, precision, and a whole lot of processing power. I've spent thousands of hours refining my approach — from shooting the installation of the Clock of the Long Now across ten years, to covering Portola Music Festival. I'm well versed in converting massive raw image sequences into polished, seamless clips, and I've built out a kit that lets me run several cameras simultaneously with all the support equipment to keep them rolling. Whether it's a multi-month build or a single-day event, I've got the gear, the workflow, and the patience.
