ABOUT

Technically, you could call what I do ‘work’, but ‘exploration’, would be a more accurate term. Each photoshoot feels like an adventure because everyone, whether renowned or unknown to the greater public, has a story to tell. Listening closely, taking the time to learn what motivates, inspires and galvanizes the people with whom I work, is the first crucial step in helping to amplify their stories. For me, visual storytelling starts with a collaborative mindset. It’s imperative to put the focus on the subject and create images that get to the authentic heart of what makes that person, and their story, unique.

 

15+ years spent on the road as a television Director and Producer, creating programming for a diverse roster of clients including Martha Stewart, PBS, ESPN, Food Network, ABC / NBC / CBS, Animal Planet and MTV, undoubtedly made me a better still photographer.

 

I’ve traveled to five continents and every state in the USA to tell the stories of some of the world’s greatest award-winning athletes, artists, performers, and change makers, as well as lesser known small town heroes, and the self-imposed rules I followed in television still apply in my photography work:

 

Be nimble…so that glitches don’t become crises.

 

Preparation and research are as important as the shoot itself…which allow one to be responsive.

 

It’s not about you…which is a reminder to create a safe, sound, environment in which those in front of the lens may unfold and reveal themselves.

There is a difference between asking questions, having ideas, having problems versus being solution oriented and taking actions.

 

We value resourcefulness over resources. Even if you're just starting out and don't have a lot of capital, there is no replacement for:

Hard work...

Dedication...

Determination...

Hustle...

Endurance...

Perseverance...

Resourcefulness...

...and creativity to build your dreams into reality.

The person with these skills will always beat the person with the resources...

ALWAYS.

Joined by Patti Compton, President at Music History Hall and Music Preserves Foundation. Patti tells you to trust your gut and build the life you desire.

Episode 30: Busy versus productive

Most people are stuck in the rut of answering "I'm busy" when asked how they are doing. What's the difference between busy and productive?

Busy = ineffective. Weak. Disorganized.
Busy is not a badge of honor.

Shift your focus from busy to producing results.

As a boss…I don’t care about how hard you work. I care about how effective you are. The results. The goal is to produce results.

Lets celebrate productivity today.
