Van Heusen Social Media 2014

Style! As photoshoots go this was one of the smoothest I've had in recent memory. I shot all the social media photo content that will be used for Van Heusen's 2014 Spring line. It was a complete honor and I have to thank the always timely Mary Crosse for the opportunity. Check out a few of my favorites from the campaign.

Arrow Clothing Spring 2014 [[Sneak Peak]]

Winter is amoung us, and most film folks will find themselves indoors as the season slows. This is the perfect chance to update you all on the things I've been shooting since you were last here. 

Arrow is a clothing brand owned by the powerhouse PVH. We spent two days in the Hamptons and Rye Playland shooting a series of 15 - 20 second spots for their 2014 Spring line. This was only achieveable by running with a small crew and being very intune with the brand and my Director's wishes. I seriously couldn't have asked for a better shoot, with such a great group of people. Take a look at a few of the selected stills and prepare to start seeing these commercials in Febuary of 2014.

'Home' gets distribution

It was long days shooting in the summer heat of Brooklyn but this feature was a dream to work on. From the colorful all-star cast, to a production crew that never failed, its rare you find an indie feature with this many moving parts. I was really honored to play Camera Op under Director of Photography Sung Rae Cho and Director Jono Oliver. It was only a mater of time, but Entertainment One has picked up Home:__ for distribution through its video on demand channels. Congrats to everyone involved.
