Visual Narrative, Process, and Practice
This blog is a place to share ideas, lessons, and observations gathered over more than three decades of working in photography, video, and visual storytelling. It reflects how I think about narrative, craft, collaboration, and the role visual media plays in helping people and organizations communicate with clarity and purpose.
I approach visual storytelling as an evolving practice. Each project, collaboration, and challenge adds to how I see the world and how I help others tell their stories. This blog is part of that ongoing process, a place to reflect, refine ideas, and share what I continue to learn through real-world work.
You’ll find writing here on photography, video production, narrative structure, creative process, and the practical realities of working with clients and teams. Some posts are instructional, others reflective, but all are rooted in experience and an ongoing commitment to doing thoughtful, honest work.
Capturing the Energy of Commencement
We were hired to capture the GUS Medical Schools commencement in Providence through photography and video, including testimonials, b-roll, and the ceremony itself. With a photojournalistic eye and a collaborative production team, we documented the real emotions, celebrations, and behind-the-scenes moments that tell the full story of graduation day. This blend of candid storytelling and intentional direction is where my roots in editorial work and commercial production meet.
