Videography and photography · Phoenix and the West Valley
Videography and photography with a plan behind it.
I'm Chris, a videographer and photographer in Buckeye, Arizona. Nearly 20 years in web, UX, and digital marketing taught me to ask where a video will live and how we'll know it worked, before the first setup.

About
I enjoy working as a one-person production team as much as I do supporting a full production crew. I embrace the full scope of work from planning the shoot, filming or photographing it, editing it, and getting it in front of intended viewers to drive engagement.
Before I picked up a camera full time, I spent nearly 20 years building websites and digital products, including VP-level roles in UX design, marketing and product. That's why I think about goals, platforms, search, and measurement as early as I think about lighting and exposure.
Most recently I have been both a staff photographer and videographer for an NCI-designated cancer center, real estate media business owner, and conservation non-profit coordinator. I also hold my FAA Part 107 certification for drone operations.
Currently living in Buckeye, AZ and looking forward to capturing these southwestern landscapes and creating engaging and impactful work for clients in the Greater Phoenix Metro area.
