About Adam

Award-winning professional with over 12 years' experience as a Camera Operator and stills photographer on multiple feature length documentaries, short films, reality tv series', music videos, EPK's, and social media packages. Having worked on long form documentaries for most of my career, I have an intimate knowledge and wealth of experience when it comes to unscripted verite / run and gun style cinematography, monitoring audio on the fly, pulling focus, lighting sets / scenes when needed, executing interviews, problem solving in high stress situations, selecting the correct gear needed to bring each scene to life, and establishing a positive working environment with crew and subjects, all of which make me great asset on any project. My professional achievements include: • Cinematographer of the 2018 Grammy Award winning Netflix feature documentary 'QUINCY' • Director of Photography and Executive Producer of the 2014 Academy Award Short-Listed feature documentary 'Keep On Keepin' On' • Winner of the 2014 Tribeca Film Festival's Audience Award for 'Keep On Keepin' On' • Photographer for the 2019 US State Department Tour of the Dominican Republic as part of the Jazz Ambassador's Program With my extensive career as a documentary filmmaker and photographer, my successes have stemmed from my camera skills and ability to make my subjects feel comfortable while establishing trust throughout the process, as well as story development and creation skills. I am a collaborative team player who is constantly searching for opportunities to share knowledge and ideas that reach and exceed the desired outcome of each project on-brand and on-budget. I'm extremely detail oriented, possess great communications skills with team/s and subjects, and enjoy keeping the set upbeat and inclusive. With these qualities, I am able to facilitate positive change and impacting results.
