I wanted to share the recent success of a video I created for Andrew Juhasz and Wahl Professional USA. With the release of their new Vanquish hair dryer, Andrew and I wanted to create a captivating short video that highlighted the important features of this new product whilst also adding a touch of creative editing and transitions.

In under 48 hours, the video surpassed 200,000 views and 8,000 likes, making it one of Wahl's most recent successful videos. Today, it sits at 240,000 views and almost 10,000 likes.

I shot most of this video handheld and on my tripod with my Sony A7IV + Sigma 24-70 2.8. We utilized Andrew's studio lighting and black backdrop to give a moody, modern feel to the video. In the end, we came up with the idea to record the audio of the dryer in action to overlay during the blow drying sequence, helping the viewer feel more immersed in its ability and power. I also had Andrew record a voiceover to discuss the product in detail, which in turn helps create a personal connection between his brand and viewers.

You can find the video linked here to Instagram. Please go give it a watch! I've always had a deep appreciation for the barber community and I am extremely excited to continue creating more content in this space.

I had the privilege of working with TÖST to edit a short promotional video for their beverage. TOST is a Sparkling Alcohol-Free Beverage. This project was a fun one especially with the amount of footage and creative freedom I was given. Thank you to the team over at TOST and Mark Hyatt for being collaborative in this process and entrusting me to execute their vision!

This is a short edit I created for the TOST brand to showcase their beverage! I included music, SFX, and some overlay assets to add some energy to the final product.…

I don't often post content from my YouTube channel here, but wanted to share a recent video I released in collaboration with my friend AJ Kret. We hiked the Anthony's Nose Preserve in New York to film the amazing view that Lake George has to offer. This video is also a bit more personal in that I vlog a bit, but also features those short cinematics that I love to create. I hope you enjoy!

I wanted to share the recap video I made from the Taylor's Version event I covered a few weeks back! I knew going into this event I wanted to create a Cinematic video that really showcased the energy and passion of all the Swifty fans! This meant shooting entirely on my RS3 and capturing everything in 60FPS so I could slow it down nicely in post. I'm very happy with the end result. Thanks for watching 😄

Venue: Portland State Theater
DJ: Haylstorm

The Taylor's Version show stopped by the Portland State Theater to play all of Taylor Swifts music! It was such a blast to capture this show and highlight only…

Ventured out to Snow Farm Vineyard & Winery last night to catch Sticks And Stones

Decided to bring my camera along and I'm glad I did! Captured some great moments towards the end of the night of the energetic crowd and the bands intimate performance. We had an awesome time.
