Lately I have been documenting my son's everyday life with my phone. I have been teaching myself video shooting and editing processes as I do this. Here is a project that I shot and edited in iMovie on my phone. It's amazing how powerful the tools within the phone have become.

In early 2015 Danny Twilley and I took ten Ohio University students to Costa Rica to engage in a field study of Ecotourism. My role on the trip was to document the journey.

Recently Pearl Gluck asked me be a set photographer for her feature film, The Turn Out. It has been great to watch such a professional team work on a long form narrative and compare their process to that of the short form documentary projects that I have been involved with.
