+I love telling stories with pictures.

+My background is in documentary image making. The honesty and emotion I was able to experience in that world allows me to understand and bring that level of realism and connection to the commercial imagery we create today.

+My work consistently has an honestness to it, whether body language or true moments of human connection - and always, ideally, both. This fills me with an incredible amount of satisfaction. Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life. I feel I have never worked a day in the last 20+ years. #lucky

+I am a problem solver. Whether that means being a bull and pushing hard or knowing when to go around the fence and finding a better way, I know our clients count on us 100% and that's what we always bring.

+I love preproduction because the better ingredients we're able to carry to the party, the tastier the meal.

+story is king, casting is a very close 2nd...

+While we always bring our A game to each project, for me, it's never about that one, it's about creating so many great visuals and such an awesome experience that you want to keep coming back for more.

+We definitely did not go into photography and directing for the awards (at all) but some industry recognition we've received so far has been; Archive's 200 Best Advertising Photographers Worldwide 2012/2013/2014/2015/2016/2017/2018/2019, Multiple CA & Graphis awards, and numerous Addy's along the way.

+Love sushi, coffee, hot tubs, sun, rain, family, friends, natural light, exploring, DOGS, oceans, working with great creative people, and remembering to be thankful.

+We've tried to show a sampling of our work on the site, if it speaks to you, we should talk...Always good to make a new friend.
