Did a 10min handheld one shot a couple of days ago for @hairylegg . Really happy with how it turned out. A little on the dark side, but the sun was practically down at this point so I don't mind. Something fun about starting a little brighter than we ended. 😊

A couple frame grabs from a project for @oakeyagency . Did a really fast pass in resolve, but it's practically #sooc . So glad for the opportunity to work with such great people.

Had a lot of fun DP'ing this video for 12 stone. Got to try a lot of new things. We used a screen wall instead of rear projection, #astera Titan tubes for our street lights, and a bunch of small astera lights inside the car to make the "concert" happen. .

Coloring something we shot this past week. We tried going super small on crew so we could easily film in certain locations. We had 2 battery powered LED lights and that was it. A @litegear litemat 4 plus and a @dmglumiere mini light.
All in all I have to say this was one of my favorite shoots in a long time. It felt like a few friends just making something.

Had a blast lighting this ark of the covenant. I think I fufilled a childhood dream I didn't realize I had lol. I used to love watching Indiana Jones. Although this definitely isn't an action packed adventure tale 😂. .

I don't normally post interview setups, but I really liked the look we created for this one. Wanted to mess with "street lamps" as the fill. Gave an interesting feel 🙂. Note: these are two separate people and his hair did not fall out lol. .

For 2019 I'm changing up my posting format. Hopefully it makes me post more lol!
These are a couple stills from a short called Nightbird that I DP'ed last year. Super happy with how it turned out. Can't wait to film some more narrative this year. .

Having some fun filming with @brandmccormick and @nicholaskirk . Using my new #kinoflo #freestyle30 it's a good day with Good people :-)

In the process of looking over some material from this year and making a new reel. Realized there's a ton of stuff I never shared on here. I'm honestly terrible at keeping my reel current. I think the one on my site is from 2016 😐 hopefully I can get it together by next week sometime...ha.

Anyways these are from the short #nightbird with the amazing Director and person @zaclovelace . @jonathanhorneactor killed it like always acting in this piece. Honestly one of favorite actors to work with, nicest guy you'll ever meet and talented beyond belief. #iknowawesomepeople
