I am a Director of Photography living in Brooklyn, NY. My experience with vérité documentary shooting and my love for cinematic lighting combine to establish my personal autistic. My passion for cinematography has taken me around the world and has lead to collaboration with clients such as RocNation, Disney, Maserati, PwC, Little Things, Dewars and Tidal. I am always interested in hearing from new clients and taking on new challenges; to allow for this flexibility my rates are determined on a project-to-project basis.
I own and operate Arri Alexa Mini (4:3 and ARRIRAW licensed) and Sony FS7 camera packages. I am also a FAA Part 107 licensed drone operator and own a DJI Phantom 4 pro drone.
