Photography/videography service

If you had told me 2 years ago that I would end up pursuing a career in photography I would have sworn you were lying. My entire life my passion has been art. Sketching, painting, sculpting, and constructing in different mediums altogether has in return, allowed me to explore endless ideas and concepts whether it was artistically, socially, or in some cases politically.

I know the transition from an artist to a photographer isn't that drastic, but believe me, in my eyes it definitely was. I saw photography as capturing something that had already been created for you while my artistry was created completely from my own vision and emerged from my own "expansive" mind. I didn't get the concept that my artistry doesn't stop at photography; it is able to be manipulated and shapeshift into any medium of my choosing.

In High School, I was apart of a marketing class. In my marketing class, I was head of Branding so I was the guy who would try to sell our products through visuals. During a class period, my team was trying to come up with ideas to outreach to an untapped portion of our target market. We already had students, but we knew our big spenders were parents. I came up with the idea to create a magazine for our company, considering that parents are usually the demographic to pick up and skim through a magazine waiting in an office. We wanted the magazine to remind the parents of a fundraiser so they would feel more invoked to buy items like they would if your junior high neighbor had asked you to buy something from his/her school's fundraiser. It was through creating this magazine I gained a passion for creating imagery behind the lens.
