From the Nevada high desert to South Africa’s bush to a 10-hour layover in Frankfurt — the camera goes where the story is.

“There is nothing more interesting than real life. I want to be there with a camera when the magic happens — all while making a little magic of my own.”

( 03 ) About

I’m an Austin-based Director of Photography. My specialty is reality television and documentary, and I love working with artists, musicians, creatives and anyone with a point of view worth sharing.

I started in the arts as a graphic designer, then moved into film through special effects on indie movies. Design is where my love for filmmaking began — and it’s been a constant ever since.
