New Horizons - Director of Photography





I believe that in this business it is important to always push yourself to never stop learning and to continually innovate the work you are producing. With that in mind, I took a positions as Director of Photography on an Independent action-adventure feature-film called Kerberos.

The movie is named after the mythological three-headed beast that guards the gates of hell. The film deals with the thin lines between good and evil, darkness and light and the mass of gray area in between as well as the idea of redemption among other various themes.

Needless to say it has been an eye-opening learning experience to dip into a new medium. I look forward to incorporating video into my still work in the future with the same cinematic approach used in the world of film-making.

Not much time for me to take stills on set but here's a few quick images I was able to grab.

Pretty crazy...how did this come about?

Came about pretty organically. I have a director friend who likes my images and kept telling me I should do some video work. He was the one who put in a word and hooked me up with this gig. Hopefully I'll be working on a music video with him in the future. In fact his name is Future - the director I refer to - a real bad ass.
