Let’s Create Something Different
Think outside the box
On any given day, you might find me editing photos from a wedding, flying a drone above a business, and helping hundreds of millions of people on TikTok answer important questions like “What Bagel Are You?” with custom-built AR filters.
Creative strategy isn’t a one-size-fits-all type of service. Let’s work together to find bold, innovative new ways to engage your audience.

Creating the Viral “What Bagel Are You” TikTok Filter
Does getting 65 million views and 9.4 million likes in 4 weeks count as going viral? Because if so, I guess I went viral this year by creating the What Bagel Are You filter on TikTok.
A Year In Review: The Year We All Want To Forget
If I say the name of the year, it confirms its existence, so let’s just dive right in.
The photo industry came to a screeching halt in March and rightfully so. I’ll be the first to say it: although I find photography incredibly valuable, it’s absolutely non-essential during a worldwide health crisis. Luckily, I was still able to find some wonderful people to safely work with this year, and I can’t wait for you to see some of the new projects I’ve been cooking up.
I’ve been pretty good about updating my Instagram and Facebook page with photos, but this poor blog needs some love. So here in all its glory are some of my favorites from this unrelenting year.
Lizz and Mark’s Fantasy Wedding in Sparta NJ
Two truly interesting people made the very end of 2019 that much more memorable by getting married at Mohawk House in Sparta, NJ. The bride, Lizz, is a theater nerd (in the absolute best way) and a bona fide world traveler, having lived basically everywhere you can think of. Her now husband, Mark, is an Eagle Scout and, probably just as impressively (maybe), a fan like myself of all-things comic book movies.
Sarina and Rick’s Andover Boro Fire Department Wedding
“God Bless America and God Bless Iron Man”
That’s how the best man ended his toast to Sarina—the bride and his mom—and I think it summed up this lighthearted fire department wedding really nicely.
