My life, briefly limned; I’m the son of a newspaperman and a teacher. I love hearing stories and telling stories, and I'm an avid reader. My father’s Nikkormat and a 28mm lens captured a great deal of my childhood. I saw early on that images can contain - well, everything. So much joy. So much pain. So much dignity; love; humor; so much oooomph!

In my work on both the motion and stills side, I try to bring that same transformative energy, whether it’s a doc on an Israeli athlete and his Olympic dreams, a spot advertising a new Krispy Kreme doughnut, or a photograph capturing the artistry of a confectioner who uses a makeup brush to apply the final delicate dusting on top of a Good Food award-winning ganache.

This picture of my daughter and myself that has some of that "oooomph." And love. I am so happy that I have the chance, and am in the right spot, to be able to capture moments like these. I get so much from that.
