I am SO excited to announce that our new short film, COLLATERAL DAMAGE, will be premiering at FANTASIA on July 30th! So excited to finally be able to share our goofy little sci-fi/action/comedy with you. See you in a couple weeks Montreal 👽 (additional tags because there’s a surplus of people who helped make this happen: @michaelwithamask @ppatrickhogan @masoncharles @carinabrielleoneill @jade.snoe @aid_and_abet @danipark0ur and a special thank you to @marineliketheocean who helped us get our French materials ready to go!) tags: #shortfilm #filmmaking #filmfest

Floating in your arms, all fears just melt away
(except sharks, an errant school of jellyfish, or running out of breath. But like, aside from those... you get the point)

Cinematography Reel 2024 🎥

Excited to finally share this collection of some of my favorite shots and projects from the past few years. Thanks so much to all the talented people within for letting me work on your music videos, features, short films, commercials, and spec scripts. Can't wait to see what we get to film next year!

It's been so much fun to experiment inside the various roles I've gotten to play, and for these particular projects, those roles included Director, DP, Cam-op, Editor, and Colorist, among others

Shot on RED Komodo, RED Helium, Sony FX6, Sony A7SIII, Lumix GH5, and DJI Mavic 3 Classic

Josh + Ava
//
Having known Josh for almost 7 years at this point, when he called and asked if I could shoot his proposal, there was zero hesitation whatsoever. The only problem was, I had an immovable appointment in a different state that day, but instead of asking someone else, Josh moved up his plans by 48 hours, giving us all a day's notice to plan and execute. And dare I say, we nailed it nonetheless ✨

Cotton candy skies, reflective sand, and dolphins popping out to say hi ~ How could the evening possibly get any better

Seaside Sunset Silhouettes 🟠🟣⚫️

This might just be one of my new favorite conditions for shooting — when sand is just wet enough to provide good reflections while the actual tide isn’t high enough to kill my camera
|
Been working on a digital guide to shooting locations around the country, and I think this one is gonna make a great addition

Staring into our own shadow 🟠
//
I still have to keep Vermont 2024 at the top of my list of eclipse shoots, but this one turned out to be special for a very different reason. Truth be told, I wasn't even planning to shoot it. I knew it was coming, but I just wasn't feeling up to the task. Creative burnout had been rearing its ugly head as of late, so I figured I'd skip it and just enjoy the photos posted by my friends online later. Leaving my camera bag behind, I left the house to go get dinner on my own. As I pulled out onto the main road, I looked up and was instantly awestruck by the sharp crescent slowly disappearing. Turning around immediately, I flew back up the hill, ran inside, grabbed my camera, ran back to the front yard and pointed it up at the moon. An hour later, I had some of my new favorite photos ever. The whole experience served as a fantastic reminder of why I love doing this so much in the first place - it's usually the unplanned moments that have the most impact. I'm also happy to know that the awesomeness of Creation is still enough to yank me out of a rut, I just have to give it the opportunity to do so

Thanks for coming to my TED Talk, prints of some of these shots will be available soon

A decade of exploring Southern California
//
10 years ago today, I packed up just about all my belongings into my family's minivan and a friend's pickup truck, and moved to SoCal to finish college. Hadn't even been photographing for a year at that point (and definitely wasn't getting paid yet), but I wasn't gonna miss the opportunity to see what was even possible through this opportunity. With no job lined up, and not nearly enough saved to be comfortable, we went for it anyway. I'd be lying if I said it hasn't been a bumpy ride, but my suspension is good, so we've been making it work. History lesson and bad puns out of the way, here are some of my favorite places around SoCal ~
Santa Monica Pier. I don't even care that it's a tourist trap, I absolutely love this place and had wanted to visit since I first learned about it while watching Iron Man for my 13th birthday. Background is Westward Beach, shot on 35mm film
Griffith Observatory...
...with good people. Don't remember when I first learned about Griffith, but I grew up wanting to be an astronaut, so it was an easy favorite. Background is the Santa Monica mountains on 35mm film
And speaking of wanting to be an astronaut, there's absolutely no better place to stargaze in SoCal than Joshua Tree. Both the foreground and background photo are single exposures taken in Joshua Tree National Park (and yes, I did scoot the tree over a little to line it up perfectly with the galactic core)
Another helping of Santa Monica Pier, with a background from Sequit Point at Leo Carrillo State Beach
A walkway over PCH and some lightsabers on Sequit Point
Top: Sunset over Coyote Lake, 30 minutes outside of Barstow. Bottom: Sunset under Santa Monica Pier. Background: Sunset above PCH, shot on Medium Format film
The Getty Center (and a random stranger). Background is the Santa Monica mountains again (take a wild guess where I live), shot on 35mm film
A magnificent sunset seen from Baldwin Hills Overlook, frolicking on a the reflective sands at Westward Beach, my car in the mountains above Crystal Lake in Azusa

This might just be the craziest cloud I've ever seen 🌥️
//
I feel like 90% of nature photo and video is being in the right place at the right time, and that is exactly what happened here. Wasn't out with any intent to shoot clouds but I spotted this right as it started and was fast enough to start recording and pull focus
