Everyone has
a story.
Let’s tell yours.

Films, photographs, and creative work that bring people, products, and ideas into focus. From the first conversation to the final delivery, I connect the story with the craft it takes to make it.

03 / CONSULTING & CONTRACT WORK

Build the capacity.
Then make the work.

I’ve built studios and teams, developed production packages and budgets, and consulted on projects and brands. I help turn a creative ambition into a practical production plan.

Studios & teams

Production needs, equipment priorities, team structure, and workflows that support the work you want to make.

Scopes & budgets

Clear deliverables, production requirements, estimates, and options shaped around your available resources.

Creative advice

A production-informed perspective on your brand story, creative concept, or project approach.

Contract production

Hands-on creative direction, video production, editing, and post-production for a defined project or alongside your existing team.

04 / ABOUT SHAWN

A storyteller.
A maker.
A collaborator.

I started making movies as a kid with a family VHS recorder, LEGO figures, and G.I. Joes. That curiosity became a career in filmmaking, photography, and creative production.

For more than two decades, I’ve worked with brands and people across technology, beauty, education, and sports. My experience includes creative direction at Light Elegance, creative production at Imagine Learning, studio leadership at US Fleet Tracking, and video production and post-production at MinIO.

I care about stories that let people, places, and communities be seen and heard with dignity, beauty, compassion, and nuance. I bring that same attention to the visual choices and practical production work behind the finished piece.

My toolkit spans camera systems, lighting, editing, motion, color, and sound. I work with Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop, Audition, and DaVinci Resolve, choosing the tools that fit the job.

01 / Find the story

Start with the audience, the purpose, and what makes the subject worth paying attention to.

02 / Shape the approach

Connect the creative direction with the people, resources, and production choices it needs.

03 / Make it real

Carry the work through production, post-production, review, and delivery.
