These are the tools I own to help you tell your story.
Let’s turn your ideas into images.
While I pride myself on being comfortable shooting with camera and lensing packages of any size, shape, or sort, my personal kit is always ready to go at a moment’s notice for a wide variety of shooting situations, from event coverage, to advertisements, to films/music videos and everything in between. Let’s make something great together!
The Camera - Sony Fx6 w/ External Monitor and Handheld & Shoulder Rig setup.
Packing serious punch in a small, camcorder-body package, the Sony Fx6 is an excellent choice for a variety of shooting situations. Featuring a full-frame sensor & stunning low-light capabilities, the Fx6 can record 4k footage at frame rates of up to 120fps. The Fx6 also features the S-Cinetone color science seen in higher-end cameras like the Sony Venice.
This particular camera package also features a Zacuto Loupe for the viewfinder, a SmallHD Bright 702 Monitor (Also available for use for AC work), and both Handheld and Shoulder setups in addition to the typical Tripod setup.
Lens Kit A - High Character Russian Glass (Vintage Helios Set)
Clockwise From Top Left: Jupiter 9 85mm f2.0, Jupiter 37A 135mm f3.5, Helios 44-2 58mm f2.0, Carl Zeiss Jena Flektogon 35mm f2.8
Center: Rehoused Carl Zeiss Jena Visionar 92mm f1.4
These are the storied russian lenses that were used in shooting The Batman (2022) and Dune: Part Two (2024) among others. The natural softness and signature swirly bokeh give these lenses great character and charm. Great on a narrative project or music video! This Helios Set is a 4 lens set of primes (with an extra) that covers 35, 58, 85, and 135mm focal lengths. Also exclusive to this set is a rehoused 92mm f1.4 Carl Zeiss Jena projector lens that creates an incredible effect on extreme closeups with its small focal plane and sharp focal falloff.
Lens Kit B - High Clarity Japanese Glass (Sony & Contax)
The G-Master Series is Sony’s flagship lens series, famed for its clarity that remains consistent both through the full range of focal lengths (24-70mm) on this zoom lens, and wide open at the lens’ f2.8 aperture.

Despite being one step down from the G-Master series in terms of price, the G-Series from Sony is no slouch either. While only featuring an f4.0 aperture, the G-series has a wider focal length range of 24-105mm and Optical Steady Shot, which keeps frames smooth even when zoomed in and handheld. Both the G-Series and G-Master feature marvelously accurate autofocus when used with the Sony Fx series of cameras.

The only prime (and not autofocus capable) lens in this set, the Zeiss Contax 135mm f2.8 lens is for situations when you just need a little more focal length and the 105mm isn’t quite enough.
