Film is a way to express an idea, a feeling, an emotion using the filmmaker imagination.
I use film to express my creativity through my client’s needs and vision of they desire. It is a beautiful symbiotic relationship that turns simple projects into expressions of beauty.

Timeless Beauty
I am extremely proud of this video! It’s a compilation of several videos put together in black and white, with lots of slow motion throughout. I am proud because I feel my video editing style has definitely come a long way from the time I created the original videos. To me it’s really good to see how I have grown over the past two years.

Ashley - Country At Heart
This video is a collaborative work with Britm_Photos and an introduction to a series of higher production value videos. My goal is to introduce and combine an element of music video feel with a model Photoshoot. By understanding the photography aspect of the shoot, each video frame now becomes a sequence of beautiful images. Our model Ashley did a fabulous job and was incredibly patient with all the requests made upon her! Ashley is a true country at heart girl. Yet, she is very much at home in front of a camera, and has a heart of gold. Britney with Britm Photo was out in the countryside rustic backroads of Waterford, California, which included a train and train tracks and all for an afternoon photoshoot. I had the pleasure to be invited to film the process and this is the result of that!
