In this post, I dive into why the Nikon Z 8 paired with the 24-70mm lens has become my go-to setup for almost every production.

In this post, I’ll guide you through the essentials of working with natural light, a versatile and powerful tool for filmmakers.

In this post, I’ll guide you through the art of scene coverage and how dynamic movement—whether from the camera or the actors—can bring your film to life.

This post provides a few tips that will hopefully help you go into your next shoot feeling confident and ready to take on any challenge that comes your way.

Exploring the balance of creativity, growth, and accountability, this new project builds on lessons from my film-a-day journey to embrace purposeful, daily progress.

Unlock the potential of your Nikon Z 8 with a customized handheld rig designed for stability, efficiency, and versatility. In this blog post, I break down the components that make up my go-to setup.

When it comes to documentary filmmaking, your interviewing skills are one of the most important skills to master. These skills directly influence the depth, authenticity and emotional impact of your film.

Life is a complex and often unpredictable journey. It tests us, molds us, and, at times, breaks us, only to rebuild us in ways we could have never imagined. In this new project, I’m exploring life itself - what it means to live fully, to confront our fears, to evolve, and to transform into something new.

Passion has always been my driving force in my career with some of my best projects coming from clients who discovered my work through these passion projects.

Over the last while, I’ve been working to perfect my camera rig and feel I’ve landed on something I’m really happy with. Finding ways to have the equipment fall away and focus on the moment has always been most important and I feel I’ve found that with this rig.

I’ve always considered vulnerability an asset but not everyone does, especially in business. I believe this vulnerability leads to deeper connections. As AI starts to play a bigger role in our lives, I believe that now more than ever that we need to embrace this vulnerability in business if we truly want to stand out. It is your secret weapon.

When I started in film, it was about creating. It was about having a vision and following through with it. The ideas were not grand and the execution was not flawless. For me, it was an outlet and was how I was able to make sense about my current mindset.

I have battled with perfectionism my whole life. Whether in the my personal or professional life, I would consistently be disappointed with what I was working on because it was never perfect.

Have you ever started the year with the best of intentions but seem to fall short a few weeks in? Are their habits you’ve wanted to establish or break for a long time but never seem to be able to stick the landing?

A slower lifestyle enables you to focus on what is important to you. To understand what is important to you, it is key to understand your values.

Outside of dealing with the loss of something or someone, having a child is without question, one of the hardest things you will experience in a lifetime. You think to yourself, yeah, this will be hard but I can do it (with enthusiasm of coarse)! You think, many people have kids and they all seem to do alright, how hard can it be? People in worse circumstances have been having kids forever and they seem to be just fine. What doesn’t seem to get through your head when you are on the other side of the fence is how hard it actually is.

I oftentimes wonder, what is it truly triggers the sense of contentment. What is it that pulls at the right strings inside you that gives you that sense of euphoria from simply living?

Career pivots require self awareness, networking, accountability, honesty and an action plan.

Accountability is without question my most valuable asset as I am able to grow personally and professionally, experience fulfillment everyday, and get one step closer to live the life I want.

To set you up for success on your film shoot, here are some basics to help you determine the best way to cover your scene and ensure you are making the best decisions for your given story.
