I recently headed over to Ft. Worth, Texas covering an inspiring story for ESPN. Former world boxing champion Paulie Ayala teaches a class there called Punching out Parkinson’s. It helps people diagnosed re-gain coordination and movement by mixing boxing techniques with other aerobic activities. It was a joy to see how much this class positively […]...
It’s always a pleasure listening to interviews of fellow musicians. Here is an interview I shot with music producer Zac Harmon. There was so much to learn from him! He gave insight to the music industry as well as some pretty cool stories about R&B group Troop. He even helped produce Bob Marley back in […]...
I got to shoot for Sports Illustrated at a local high school here in Atlanta. We were following a story of a football player who got injured in wrestling to the point where his leg had to be amputated. He now plays football for his high school with a prosthetic leg. We captured some film […]...
Spending time on I75 is probably a good use of my life – from traffic, construction and signs for truck stops and other things, I have a lot of time to think. I was thinking how excited I was about the shoot I had coming up in Orlando. First of all, ATL weather was awful […]...
While on my adventures in Dallas, I was put on another shoot down in Waco for the show Unsung. This was a 3-day-er shooting a bulk of the episode for the band, Hi-Five. The band had some success and some hard times. The shoot was very emotional for the guys, but it was also a […]...
A lot of what I’ve shot for Unsung happened before my time, but this particular episode sparked my interest. The shoot was with Montell Jordan, the man who sang the 90’s hit, “This is How We Do It”. He has since retired from the music game and become a worship leader at a local church, […]...
For this shoot, I got to drive out of town against the traffic (yes!) to a Maaco sales center to talk paint with a couple of the guys. I set up an interview in the office and shot on a 5D. I changed it up from what I usually use and set up some litepanels […]...
My HDX900 and I recently took a trip up to Spencer, MA to work with MSNBC Your Business. We were doing a story on Christmas Decor, a seasonal franchise that does elaborate Christmas and Holiday Lighting setups at both residential and commercial properties. Mother nature must have heard we were doing the story because snow […]...
I’ve done my fair share of NASCAR shoots, but haven’t done anything with the truck series until now. Dave and I teamed up to shoot with Bubba Wallace Jr. after he won a race. We headed over to his garage in Charlotte and set up a 2 camera interview with him and his truck. Dave […]...
Usually for my job I have to travel a lot; it’s a given. This time, I took the long haul on I20 from Atlanta to Dallas to cover a few shoots for Roggg. I headed to Steve Harvey’s ranch where he had set up and sponsored a wedding for a great couple. We had 5 […]...
Whoopi Goldberg! Charlie Murphy! Kevin ‘Dot Com’ Brown! Earthquake! When you’ve been working with these stars then you must have just wrapped up shooting a bunch and episodes of Unsung: Hollywood. At least thats the story for me. This past spring I had the pleasure of doing a ton of the sit down interviews for […]...
That classic show, now hosted by Steve Harvery, was holding a special segment in Atlanta. The casts of TLC’s “Cake Boss” and “Here Comes Honey Boo Boo” were pitted against each other in an epic battle to see who had brains and who had batter. I was sent by our friends at E! to cover […]...
