I’ve made the choice to stop hiding my work from the world.

Artist friends: lets get in the studio 📸

Enjoy these photos of one of my closest friends and one of the best tattoo artists in the world,

This is Western Shores. I shot this music video with Kill The Robot last September as part of their campaign leading up to the release of their debut, self titled album. We shot this entire video in one day, with just 2 other, incredible crew members. It was no easy feat to frame and light every shot, pull focus from the barrel while cam op’ing hand held but these are the days we live for as filmmakers, photographers & musicians.

A fun fact about the video is that all of the beach footage is actually footage that I shot in Malibu in 2017 the day that I received my 1DX Mark II in the mail. The footage had been sitting on a hard drive for nearly 8 years before getting dusted off and actually used in a project. I loved that I could incorporate some footage from own personal past into the project instead of opting to use stock footage. I want to give a huge shout to .przz for the fire photos and for absolutely busting his ass to help me move equipment all day to make this happen, and another thank you to for making it all happen.

Side note: another video is happening, soon. Keep ya eyes peeled!

Sleep Token just dropped a couple of heaters out of nowhere, worth a listen or 20. Here’s a few photos I took of them at Blue Ridge this year!
