Award-Winning Director & Photographer in Carbondale, CO
As an Emmy Award-winning director and photographer, I have dedicated my career to capturing the boldness of the human experience through dynamic lighting and handheld camera work. With over 25 years of experience, I specialize in commercial photography, documentary filmmaking, and fine art projects for global brands like Canon, Patagonia, and Southwest Airlines. My work has earned recognition in Sports Illustrated, The New York Times, and Communication Arts, while my passion for storytelling extends to nonprofit collaborations and psychotherapy services.I founded my practice in 1996 after graduating from Dartmouth, blending technical expertise with emotional depth to transport viewers into every scene. My recent licensure as a psychotherapist reflects my commitment to exploring human experiences through both visual and therapeutic mediums. Clients choose me for my ability to merge artistic vision with technical precision, creating compelling narratives that resonate across industries.
