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.
From Fairway to Premiere: Creating a Lean Product Video for Birdie Polish
When Rhode Island–based Birdie Polish asked me to produce a short video for their new golf-inspired product, we decided to keep it lean and flexible — filming with an iPhone to minimize impact on the course while still delivering a high-quality result. This one-minute B2C project shows how thoughtful planning, sound design, and storytelling can bring a product to life, even on a small-scale production.
