The Impact of Architectural Videography

Architecture should be experienced as you move through it. That is what I look for through the camera. The approach from the street, the entry, the corridor opening into the main space, the light shifting across a facade from morning to dusk.

Finding Perspective Around Every Corner

Featured Project: Alys Beach

Highlighting how light evolves to change spaces over time.

A photograph holds one moment of a building. Film holds its sequence. The approach from the street, the entry, the corridor opening into the main space, the light shifting across a facade from morning to dusk.

Architecture is experienced in motion, and some of what makes a building good only appears when you move through it. That is what I look for with a camera that records time as well as light.

Commercial Film Work

Coca-Cola Ampitheater

Recent film subjects include the UAB School of Nursing, where the glass facade and its shifting reflections asked for motion, and construction progress work for builders across the Southeast, where film captures the sequence of a site changing week to week.

The power of capturing a project in full

Featured Project: Alys Beach

I shoot photography and video in a single natural-light workflow, often on the same visit. The same patience applies to both: waiting for the right light rather than forcing it, keeping the compositions honest, letting the building set the pace.

For clients this means one shoot, one consistent visual language, and a set of deliverables that work together instead of feeling like two different vendors visited the site.

Documenting the process and depth of craft goes beyond awards.

Documenting a shooting photo and video from start to finish of a project shows more than a final product. It shows the full capability of your team and the infrastructure and processes in place to handle every detail with focus and follow through.

Frequently Asked Questions

When the Coca-Cola Amphitheater was nearing completion, the goal was not just to document a new venue, but to display what it adds to the city.

The amphitheater seats around 8,000 people and fills a long needed gap between small clubs and stadium shows. Designed by MBA Engineers and built by Stone Building Company, the structure leans into Birmingham's industrial roots with exposed steel, concrete, and a sweeping canopy that defines the space.

I am based in Birmingham, Alabama and work across the Southeast, with regular projects in Nashville, Austin, and throughout Alabama, Tennessee, Georgia, and Florida.
