Just a couple weeks ago, one year after our wedding @lhrsmart and I did our honeymoon to Portugal. We loved it there so much. We had a day in Lisbon, two days in Porto, a day in Douro Vallley, and 5 days in Ericeira. Ericeira was for sure our highlight, a small little surfing village just north of Lisbon. I surfed, we rented bikes, I did a lot of photography, good shopping, good food. We were in paradise. We will always remember this trip and look forward to going back!
Doing Steadicam for a music tour is a fairly new gig for me. This tour with @reneerapp has been a really fun experience. It took me to Australia recently for a week. We did shows in Brisbane, Sydney and the Australia Open in Melbourne. Australia was such a sick place. I loved it so much. Here are some of the photos I took there.
Our birthday’s are one day apart so each year our present to each other is a trip. This year was Mexico City and Puerto Escondido. We had an epic time in both places!
4.19.25 Our big day. @lhsmart Marrying you has been such an honor. Seeing these photos make me so happy reliving this special day. Filled with so many wonderful memories with all of our closest and dearest people and Sweeps.
This Delta spot was a really fun job to get my Trinity on with Director @johnmerizalde and DP @_____persona._ . This oner was the main shot that called for Trinity on the job. It came out great!

Getting good use of the Superpost on my Trinity 2 rig on a spot for SoCalGas last fall. The entire spot was shot on the superpost. We built the rig specifically for the shot where the little boy is raised from the ground to the basketball hoop. Great times with Director @roycegorsuch DP @colinarndt 1st AC @_noahdeats .

“Selfish” by Justin Timberlake. This was a really fun music video to do Steadicam with DP @voxstraume and Director @bradleyjcalder as well as our “On Camera Steadicam Op” @justindanzansky . The BTS is just one of the shots that makes this sequence. Here are the shots we did to make this sequence cut.
1. POV of JT (Me and Justin Dueling)
2. Counter rotation of “On Camera Operator” Filming JT from outside or orbit.
3. The hero shot of JT Performing.

Working as B/Cam Steadicam operator on 80 For Brady was a major milestone for me. Working with A cam operator @peter.rosenfeld and Oscar Winning DP John Toll, ASC, I had some big shoes to fill. This was the very first Steadicam shot I did on the film. It was so hot that day I felt a huge amount of pressure. Knowing everyone was watching and this would set the tone of how John would decide to do Steadicam shots for the rest of the show. In the end, the shot turned out great and Peter helped me out immensely finding the final frame with all the women visible through the car window.

Throwing some work up from the archives. This campaign was such a joy to operate my Trinity on for @drinkmudwtr . This was a four day shoot. We had one full day to rehearse a 4 minute oner, a day dedicated to the oner. Then two days to shoot a series of other spots. This is one of other spots we did and probably my favorite. The camera movement and choreography match so well as well as the boom moves of the Trinity.

Summer 2024 was one for the books. The highlight was proposing to @lhsmart . Lucky for me she said yes. I can’t wait for what our future holds and starting this next chapter with you.
