Welcome!
I’ve had the privilege of being a cinematographer on everything from big wall climbing in jungle-covered islands to Black Rhino re-introduction in Rwanda. Each and every one of my jobs have been a dream come true, and I’ve walked away from them with my blood pumping full of stoke and purpose. It is what I live for.
My forte is the run-n-gun work, and I am well suited to adverse environments where multi-tasking and keeping a cool head is the name of the game. I am more than familiar with a variety of cameras, drones, gimbals, and time-lapse rigs. From the Sony VENICE to the RED Helium and beyond, I can run the rig a hundred feet up in a jungle canopy or in a Culver City studio. I dare to say with confidence I’m a damn good drone pilot, with an Inspire 2 / X7 package for rent and hundreds of flight hours to my name. Lastly, I am an experienced climber and well suited to shooting from a rope anytime, anywhere.
While I prefer the adventurous jobs, I’ll be at home in any studio session or corporate interview. Whether we’re spending days filming northern lights in remote Canada or interviewing a billionaire in Malibu, rest assured we will get it done.
Salt Lake City based.
