Director of Photography

Feature Films, Television and Web Shows and Commercials

Like many filmmakers of my time, I started making movies in my early teens with a super-8 camera.

I began my professional career as a visual effects cinematographer at INTROVISION filming models and miniatures and projecting them on multiple screens simultaneously using VistaVision projectors and a beam splitter. This process created instant, immersible sets where actors could actually interact within a fully lit set which you could only see through the camera's viewfinder. One of my first projects was a popular television show called "Team Knight Rider" for Universal Television. Since then I have shot hundreds of TV shows, feature films and commercials. I still continue to do visual FX work (although mostly computer generated) where I combine my lighting and camera skills with the magic provided by a variety of CGI software.

I have worked with many cameras, formats and gauges. From Super-8 to VistaVision, Arri, Red and everything in between. I currently own several cinema cameras including a Canon C500 Mark II along with a wide selection of cinema lenses.

Since joining the union over 2 decades ago, i have shot numerous union and nonunion projects including feature films, television shows and commercials.

Licensed, experience and ready for action. I own and operate several drones. Acquiring aerial images with a drones has brought so much satisfaction to my work.

Shooting commercials has always been a very gratifying experience for me. It's like making a mini-movie in a relatively short amount of time.

I have had the opportunity to shoot over 600 commercials for a variety of brands. I immensely enjoy the collaborative process and am always eager to work with directors who have a strong visual style.
