Sharing stories through visual media
|
Are you seeking compelling storytelling to share with your constituency? High quality visual media, including photography and videography, provide inspiring and educational communications for organizations of all kinds. Let's work together to document your environmental or sustainability-themed event, program or campaign. I can be help craft the sharing of your story myself or, even better, work with the authentic storytellers that matter most to you! Local to Southern California and destination inquiries welcome. |

Photography
Photos tell the story of your organization's event, program or campaign. I can provide photography as a delivered product, or facilitated programming using participatory photography (similar to/sometimes called Photovoice).
My photography has been published on a variety of platforms:

Videography
Video storytelling is critical in today's digital communications environment. The use of video for an educational and promotional tool is an important part of any fundraising or marketing campaign!
My video work and narrative research has spanned everything from raw footage provision to choreography and final productions with added graphics and soundtrack.
