Dear Producer, Director, or Hiring Team,
I’m a cinematographer with over 25 years of experience lighting and shooting productions on set, Hollywood sound stages and in virtual studio environments. I’m currently based in the DMV area to assist my father with some recent and unfortunate family affairs. During this time, I’m very eager to bring my creative and technical expertise to local productions. I specialize in gaffing (lighting) and in operating my remote head jib, slider, and steadicam.
As the owner of Atomic Studios in Los Angeles, I’ve worked on hundreds of shoots, from indie films to large-scale commercials. I bring my own full camera and lighting setup, including a 3-ton grip and lighting package, Canon R5 and Blackmagic 6K cameras, Zeiss Super Speed lenses, and professional support gear like jibs, Steadicams, and dollies.
Rest assured, I am accustomed to very long days on set and not looking for any sort of overtime pay because I am yours for the day/night. I am more than happy wearing multiple hats on set, and maintaining a professional, collaborative attitude without any sense of entitlement. My number on goal is to over deliver…
Known for adaptability, efficiency, and high-end visuals on lean budgets, I’m available immediately and committed to delivering strong visual storytelling on every project.

Thank you for your time—I’d be glad to speak further about how I can support your production.
