As a long-time lover of the intersection of Camp and Spooky, it was a blast to help Tarah Cards bring to life her Nosferatu, early silent film era homage. Enjoy!
2020 Reel
Always an interesting, humbling, entertaining and nostalgic thing to do… rifle through all of the footage I’ve shot over the last couple of years. It’s certainly been a wild few years traveling around the country to shoot music festivals, museums, large gatherings of people… all a relic of the past, for now. Lucky to direct a few music videos each year to keep those creative juices flowing and happy to help out on as many non-profit videos as I can.
The Wanting - music video
Of course having a budget is always welcome, but it’s also fun to push creatively when there are zero dollars, a crew of one and about three hours with the band before their concert that night. Here’s New Orleans based queer gothic folk outfit The Wanting with their song Autumn’s Daughter.
Night Suit (for Tarah Cards) - music video
Shot on location in New Orleans, this moody music video for the band Early Day Miners features the talents of @tarah_cards and @bobbybonsey
Stand As One - music video
Stepping slightly outside of our wheelhouse to create this high energy performance music video for Pacific Skyline.
Franky doing "None of Dem" (by Robyn feat Royksopp)
Had a blast making this lip synch video with Franky underneath a freeway on-ramp one Tuesday evening a few weeks ago. Love the creative vibes that flow through New Orleans.
Jazz Age Fashion Editorial
A fun fashion editorial we created for Wedding Guide New Orleans
Brandi Carlile - spec music video
Love, love, love the music of Brandi Carlile, so we made this spec video to Wherever is Your Heart. Can't wait to see her at the Hollywood Bowl Saturday night!
We Are the Night - Music Video
So proud of this music video we made with Steve Grand: We Are the Night - nearly 150k views!
Wherever Is Your Heart - spec music video
We love Brandi Carlile and her music so much, we made this spec music video to Wherever is Your Heart.
Summer Girls - music video
Feeling that late summer vibe listening to Boone's Summer Girls and the music video we made out on the lake in Nashville last year.
Over one million views!
Incredible that we've surpassed 1 million views for Steve Grand's All I Want for Christmas is You music video that we shot in a few hours with zero budget last December.
Now based in New Orleans
Excited to announce that we are now based in New Orleans, Louisiana in the heart of the French Quarter on Royal St. and Saint Peter St.
