Shot on location across the Pacific Northwest, this campaign took place throughout Olympic National Park, utilizing a range of environments to capture lifestyle imagery for the Ascend brand. During pre-production, I oversaw budgets, logistics, talent, locations, and scheduling, while contributing to the overall video direction. Working within the challenges of unpredictable weather and protected land restrictions, the shoot required careful planning and adaptability from start to finish.

Shot on location along the Au Sable River in northern Michigan, this campaign focused on capturing authentic fly fishing lifestyle imagery for the White River Fly Shop brand. I led pre-production efforts, overseeing budgets, logistics, talent, and scheduling. During this shoot, we coordinated closely with local guides to time the shoot around optimal fishing conditions.
