About me
Hey, I'm Drew.
Growing up, I had two loves: soccer and making videos. I played soccer all the way into college. Then I made a choice: I quit the team so I could put all my time into creating and saving up for better gear. Best call I ever made.
That was over 10 years ago. Since then I've filmed and photographed projects for US Soccer, IKEA, Puma, Coca-Cola, ACE Hardware and FOX Rehabilitation. I've also worked with a long list of small businesses, artists, couples and nonprofits that I'm just as proud of.
Today I live in the Greater Philadelphia area with my wife, Alicia. I'm still that guy who orders water at the bar all night so I can afford the next lens.
What I do
Full productions
I plan it, shoot it and edit it. You get a finished film without juggling five different people.
Director of photography
Need someone to run camera on your shoot? I show up with a Sony cinema kit and an eye for the shot.
Second shooter
Fellow creators: I'll grab the angles you can't. Reliable, easy to work with, and I'll match your look.
Have camera, will travel
Places that stole my heart
I love telling the stories of people doing good around the world. Got a mission trip, nonprofit or program that needs to be seen? Let's go.
Colombia
My favorite country, period. Full of life, beautiful, affordable, amazing food, and the people are welcoming.
St. Vincent & the Grenadines
Doesn't get the credit it deserves. Gorgeous, lovely people, and adventures around every corner.
Malawi
Some of the kindest people I've ever met. I filmed a series of short documentaries there and came home with a lot of new friends.
Kenya
Nairobi blew me away. Super friendly people, and you barely even need to leave the city to go on a safari.
Spain
The Canary Islands have a special place in my heart. It's an incredible feeling to be on a hike and see old coral that was underwater many years ago.
St. Lucia
Stunning from every angle, with so much to see and do.
