There is always a moment to capture

Here are a series of moments I have captured. There are a million stories out there and trying to capture every single one of them is impossible but trying to grab all I can is not impossible and that is what I have been doing and plan to do. Enjoy these photos and these videos I have created! Follow along for the ride as I progress in my craft.

Video Work

The Life of Chalino.

Just a few months out of college, I was offered work on a minor project but seemed to be a lot bigger than what it seemed. To work on the documentary of Corridos singer and legend, Chalino Sanchez, was big for me. I had no idea who he was prior to this project. One of my martial arts professors was really dedicated to this project and being able to be editor of his self-funded project was big for me. I hope you guys enjoy this documentary as much as I did!

 

Profe Raul.

My love for documentary film making did not start with this project but this is my first major documentary film I put together for my graduation project. I chose my martial arts professor for many reasons but there was one reason that stood out and it is because he is a stand-up individual who I really look up to. I can recall a time when I had no money, behind on bills and facing a law suit for being behind on bills. My professor Raul, at the time, a friend, offered me work when he could have offered others. It was a huge blessing. It was not this opportunity that made me understand what kind of individual he is but the times before and after. Anyone who knows him knows how great of a person he is. That is ultimately why I chose him for my grad project. Enjoy and just know, this will be done over again and longer length!
