On assignment for Taiwan Tourism

I'm very excited to announce our recent work for Taiwan Bureau of Tourism. In March, we spent a week in Taiwan documenting the cities and country side. We wanted this video to encompass the spirituality of the people and the family orientated, friendly culture. One thing that I noticed right away about Taiwan was that the people are very welcoming!

My goal with every video and photo project is to insert those quirky life moments that give it a personal touch. One of the highlights of the tour was the Lantern Festival, which is the biggest in the world. Seeing just a little slice of Taiwan, I definitely want to go back to Taiwan on my own time and experience other lantern festivals and the mountains and beaches on the south side that we did not get to see.


Malibu Hills // Personal Work

My friend Nicole was in town and hit me up to do a test shoot. I decided on Malibu as our backdrop. For this shoot, I did video and photos and for the video component, I wanted to focus on the double exposure idea using textures and beauty. I love the direction this is going in and can't wait to experiment more with this idea for video.

Graton Casino Spot A

I'm super excited to announce that the first TV spot for the Graton Casino is live and airing in the San Francisco bay area! This is one of four spots. This assignment was right up our alley since it was on location and shot in one of my favorite parts of the country, SF and Napa Valley. We spent three days in the bay area filming and had a blast with all the talent and different locations and activities!

The idea for Graton's brand identity, is to build imagery around local bay area residence having the "best day of their life" at the casino, indulging in the many activities to do in the area, and personal moments. They liked our previous work and hired us for this job because of the emotion and personal moments that we capture that seem effortless and genuine.
