MERRELL | Trail Running Month

I was asked by my AC and good friend, Alex Lopez, to help out with a simple shoot for Merrell. I not only love this brand, but really enjoy the idea of getting out there in the wilderness, while at the same time, making something really fun with people I genuinely like. After an hour or two of getting destroyed by mosquitoes, Alex and I felt like we got the job done. I’ll remember the bug spray for next time.


Vacation in a nutshell 🐟🛹

Schoolie stripers, skateboarding, and swimming. We made this video for fun as part of the #StriperCupPFG contest. Also an excuse to test out the new (well, new to me) BMPCC6k. Might rent the R5 or even the A1 to see what those have to offer. I’m glad I was able to win you a hat my friend. Enjoy.

Humble, Hungry, Humans

I took over Hill Holliday's social media account on Instagram this week and shot a series of shorts. The videos document some of my amazing co-workers/friends and what they do outside the office. We all have our own passions, hobbies, needs, and wants. Each video will explore those means of expressions. The things that keeps us going, what we love to do, and why we choose to do so.

FREE. SPEECH!

 

One week after violent protests rattled Charlottesville, Virginia, a scheduled free speech rally in Boston Saturday was met with thousands of counter-protesters. This is a little bit of what I saw on August 19, 2017. Boston's history of racial solidarity and racial unrest came to a head. Dozens arrested, few injured as 40,000 protesters descended on the city.

Graphs that are cinematic

 

A few cinemagraphs I created for Dunkin' Donuts. They were made to go live on Dunk's social platforms as they unveil their new Nitro Coffee. 

Treecycle: an untitled project as of now

 

I hired my girlfriend as my PA over the past weekend where I was documenting the story of Treecycle. TreeCycle is a tree service that approaches Arboriculture as an art form and act of stewarship; recycling the wood to fuel the community and the arts. The dynamic duo, Brian and Craig, started the project and continue to expand upon it. They are pictured below. Oh, and Marissa....good job babe ;)

I will be shooting again and again over the month of April. Expect much more in the near future.

Good Morning, Vietnam

Every morning I had something to look forward too. Vietnam. Fast. Saturated. Gorgeous. The people. The food. The coffee. The traffic. The scenery. The different. The similar. The people! Kindness. Personality. Comfort. This was a trip with some of my closest friends. Everyday was different. An adventure. A surprise...to say the very least. From monkeys on bikes and floating markets to feeding crocs and surfing in the South China Sea. So much color and love. It was a great experience and happy I had a camera in hand. I want to thank the Dang Family for showing us the way and showering us with hospitality from the other side.
