The idea behind 'Beautiful Motion Pictures' came about in the search to brand myself as something recognizable but also at the same time instantly lets people know who and what I am about.
I have a passion for all things film, television and media but a special place for cinematography and video editing. The idea of having control of crafting a vision and bringing the idea to life, is what motivates me.
I am a fully equipped to cover almost any and all situations you may expect to encounter on a video shoot and with proper preparation, I am always ready. Besides crafting out a career working under my own banner of 'Beautiful Motion Pictures' I also have extensive experience working with other production and media agencies, being contracted in to complete jobs on an as needed basis. These companies include: ScreenCraft, GMRX Media, OB Group, Enigma Communications & Good Eye Deer
