Robyn Buildings R-Lap Promotional Video

Showcasing their new steel siding option, Robyn Buildings commissioned me to create a compelling and exciting video that demonstrated the enduring quality of their products.

Meridy's Uniforms

My friends over at Meridy's always want to have fun. They offer seriously good nursing uniforms and scrubs with excellent customer support and satisfaction. But when it comes time to do an instructional video, they want it to be fun... actually, "fun and sassy" were their exact words. Watch it. You'll see.

Chazito’s Grand Opening

Any grand opening of a new restaurant is sure to be exciting, but Chaz and his crew took it to another level.

Somers Realty

A quick overview of how a local realtor’s passion makes all the difference.

Big Boy Cookies: Valentine’s Day

This video is only sixty seconds, but it captures the spirit of Big Boy Cookies perfectly. Usually a little playful and occasionally irreverent, Big Boy Cookies is always a lot of fun. Can you imagine a better way than this video to tell customers why they should upgrade their Valentine’s game?

Paul Anderson Youth Home: Family In Crisis

This is a 15 second ad created for a movie theater in Macon, Georgia. Making an impact in 15 seconds can be incredibly challenging, but for families in crisis, knowing about a program like the PAYH can make all the difference.

Vidalia Sweet Onions: Seed To Shipping

My second video project with the city of Vidalia tells the story of the world-famous Vidalia Sweet Onions and the growers who bring these amazing gems to market.

Three Sisters: The Brazell House

I was commissioned by the Altama Museum in Vidalia, Georgia to produce a historical video about the museum. When we started, we were uncertain what shape the story would take. Once we began investigating the history of the Brazell House, the historical home converted into the Altama Gallery in the 1980s, it soon became clear our story centered on the three sisters who lived in the house and left it as a legacy to their community after they passed. I love this story.

Georgia Grown Innovation Center

In 2021, I became a Georgia Grown business and worked with the city of Metter, Georgia, Georgia Southern University, and Georgia Grown, the Georgia Department of Agriculture, to create a mini documentary on the Georgia Grown Innovation Center, a unique and surprising local collaboration.

Legacy of Paul Anderson

Considered the World’s Strongest Man according to the Guiness Book Of World Records, Paul Anderson dazzled the world after his surprise 1956 Gold Medal win at the Olympics despite having suffered a crippling disease as a child. Years later in 1961, he would go on to found the Paul Anderson Youth Home with his wife, Glenda. This is Paul’s story.

Why We Ride: The Paul Anderson Cycling Challenge

In 1961, the World’s Strongest Man climbed on a bicycle to bike from Vidalia, Georgia to Omaha, Nebraska in order to raise awareness of a new home for troubled teens he was opening in Vidalia with his wife. 50 plus years later, the young men and staff at the home ride bikes to honor the organization founder as well as to raise money to fund it. I worked for nearly 15 years at the PAYH, and while employed there (and for three years after) I participated in every bike ride they had except the very first one. I've included this video here to show the power of a simple story told well.

The Mercy Ministries

I always looked forward to my projects with Mercy every year. The stories they have to share are simply incredible. Video is one of the ways they engage their supporters at their annual fundraiser luncheons. There is so much content we’d capture to produce that single video, I was always able to produce a suite of videos for them to use throughout the year at no additional cost. Nothing is wasted: that's my M.O.

Campfire Cooking: Steak & Carrots

I teamed up with a local magazine to capture the undeniable appeal of a local man’s passion to cook over an open flame.

Mentoring Program

Collaborating with a hometown organization designed to help families and children thrive was a no-brainer for me. I was delighted to help raise awareness of their mentoring program available for students in local schools.

Rachel's House

Rachel's House is another organization I worked with many years to help produce a video that showcases their services and raise much-needed support. After I produced the 8-minute banquet video I was hired to create above, I was left with at least an hour of great content I was able to edit and provide to Rachel's House for marketing throughout the year, all as part of our original contract. The additional, un-wasted content represents recruitment and training videos for volunteers, emotive social media clips, history and overview videos of the organization, and inspirational videos for others who may be in crisis.

Vidalia Heritage Academy

Private schools like VHA often need a way to educate families on who they are and why they may be a good fit for their child. Video is an excellent way to do that. I've worked on a handful of videos with them, and it's hard to pick my favorite.

Mercy Ministries: Why Is The Ministry Necessary?

Unlike the annual fundraising videos I created each year with The Mercy Ministries, we also created internal videos to educate stakeholders on key elements of what the clinic does and why. In short, simple videos, the then-director of the organization was able to provide concise yet in-depth nuggets of information to help staff, board members and volunteers understand how vital their work is.

Get Ready With Evie

Designed for Middle and High School students, Evie and I created a series of mindfulness practice videos for use by teachers in school systems. The courses were hosted on Teachable and included introductions to the series, including the video here, as well as individual mindfulness practice videos for use in the classroom.

Back To The Basics 101

I worked with B2B101 to create an exclusive online portal of member-only tutorials created for women to help nourish them in mind, body and soul. While focusing on healthy cooking, the series reflected the creator’s personal convictions regarding nutrition, spirituality and holistic health. Ginger, the owner of B2B101, wanted her content to have a raw, unpolished feel in order to better represent her “back to the basics” approach to wellness.

University of Alabama: Infusion Therapy

This video provides an educational tour of what a day of treatment looks like at the Kirkland Clinic at UAB Hospital, providing insight to patients into what they should expect. The video was made in partnership with the University of Alabama in Birmingham and the Deep South Cancer Foundation.

Paul Anderson Cycling Challenge

Shooting for this event is always challenging and totally worth it. I am in a van all day, riding back and forth on the highway following the boys on bicycles. I'm shooting out of the window, from the side of the road, and occasionally, from the roof of the van: whatever it takes to get the shot. When I’m not shooting, I'm in the van editing like a madman to get videos produced and released every single day of the ride. I addition, I also shoot and edit photos and write copy for the blog and website. That's not an easy thing to do, but it's a great way for the guys to celebrate their accomplishment at the end of the day: watch themselves in video or see themselves in images. It's also the best way the boys' families and other supporters can be a part of the ride even if they are many miles away. This is the final montage video that takes some of the best moments from each day of the ride.

Cycliad 2017

The Deep South Cancer Foundation's Cycliad event took me on quite a journey in 2017. We visited historical locations from the Civil Rights movement in Selma and Montgomery, Alabama. We spent a weekend in the mountains, a weekend experiencing rural Georgia, and even saw the sights in Birmingham. But this video highlights our weekend along the Emerald Coast.

21st Century Summer Camp

This video was shot in a day and edited very quickly so the students could watch it at the end of the camp. Because of that, the quality of the editing is a bit rough around the edges, but I believe it captures the essence of the summer program and just how much the students get to experience there.

Chris and Emma

Chris and Emma's wedding was beautiful, but their reception was legendary. The thing I love most about this video is how much fun everyone is having during the reception. This is also a great example of how I try to capture the essence of the day. In ten years, no one will likely want to watch a boring video of a wedding where the camera is on a tripod off to one side of the building. Not often, anyway. But something like this? Well, you can watch it over and over again.

Letty’s Quinceañera

Shooting Letty’s quince was the most fun I had all year. I loved the energy, the food, the dancing, the family. Capturing these special moments was an absolute pleasure for me, and I can’t wait for my next opportunity.

Meghan and David

Meghan and David’s wedding video illustrates a great point: sometimes the magic of the moment is just that - the time and circumstances provide a moment of pure magic that couldn't have been easily planned. There are a couple of those moments in this video. One is the beautiful sunset that created a few timeless scenes. Another: the dancing.

Camille and Conner

Camille and Conner's video has all the highlights you might look for in a wedding video: first kiss, first dance, bouquet and garter toss... But the thing Camille really wanted to be seen was all the fun stuff that happened before (her and her bridesmaids getting ready) and after (dancing the night away) the ceremony.

Josh and Dannah

Shooting this video was a lot of fun partly because the setting was incredible, but also for the storm that blew in while we were capturing shots of the bride and groom following the ceremony. Luckily, it blew over before it impacted the reception, but it gave us a great moody sky to shot against.

Vintage Christmas

Using old reel footage form my childhood, I edited this nostalgic Christmas memory to take my family back.

Tiger Creek Band: Promo Reel

Using GoPros to capture raw footage of live performances throughout the year, I edited together a showcase reel that demonstrates the band’s vibe. Because I also perform with the band, I have to get creative. Rather than stifling my creativity, using action cameras forces me to think outside the box. For any band trying to get gigs, highlight reels that show off your assets are essential.

Appling Applause Show Choir

Few things evoke the same energy as a show choir. I shot this number with Appling Applause for a telethon-style fundraiser for a local non-profit, but I wanted to capture the entire show! Unfortunately, my schedule wouldn’t allow it, but at least we got to share Everybody Needs Somebody.

Jeff Davis High School Marching Band

Another performance I captured for the telethon, the JDMB took me back to high school.

Unity Choir

Created in 2020 to bring the community together, the Unity Choir became a symbol of what we can accomplish together when we celebrate our differences.

Lava Lamp

A fun, energetic band that excels in rock-n-roll covers that will melt your face off, Lava Lamp always provides a high energy performance with top notch musical skill.

Tiger Creek Music Video: Wastin’ Time

This video does not represent the current style or energy of Tiger Creek, and only two of the members from this video are still in the band today. But this was my first (and unfortunately only) chance to shoot and edit a music video.

Tiger Creek: 10 Year Retrospective

To cleanse the pallets of any of you out there who have allergies to country music, here is the 10 Year Retrospective celebrating a decade of Tiger Creek. Combining live video footage, photos, and behind-the-scenes shenanigans, the video demonstrates you don’t need nothin’ but a good time.
