ABOUT MICHAEL

A man with dark hair and sunglasses sitting on a sidewalk next to a brown and white dog. The man is wearing a navy blue t-shirt and shorts, and the dog is lying down, smiling with its tongue out. They are outside in front of a building with a large window reflecting a blue sky with clouds and trees.

Hello! I am a freelance videographer, photographer, editor and musician based in Portland, OR. I specialize in live events, branding, lifestyle and the ever-growing need for video-centric social content.

I believe that a collaborative, communicative approach with clients will always achieve your desired end goal. Past clients include CMT, USA Today, Great American Country, GANNETT, Cold River Records, Torrez Music Group, and Launch Tennessee among others. I am experienced in several camera systems (Sony, Panasonic, Canon) and am a drone operator/owner.

Originally hailing from Indiana, I grew up fascinated with the family camcorder and never put it down. I graduated from Belmont University with a major in video production and a minor in broadcast journalism and have 10+ years of professional experience in TV and video.

When I’m not behind a camera I love to camp, ski, hike and take long walks (more like dragged through the sand) on the beach with my pittie mix, Bento.
