Courtney Hart — Red Lights Song Promo
Full creative direction, production, and direction of a cinematic song promo for country artist Courtney Hart. Photos were published and featured in The Hollywood Magazine. Transformed the track into an emotional short film narrative far beyond a standard music video (currently in production).
BTS · Documentary · Agency
Shot behind-the-scenes for a marketing agency and turned it into something far beyond documentation — a fly-on-the-wall into the raw, unguarded moments of what it actually looks like to make art. Intimate, human, cinematic.

Rock N Roll Soul

Identity-first portraiture — shot to reveal who someone actually is, not who they perform online. No over-posing, no surface-level perfection. Effortless, intimate, editorial.

Fly-on-the-wall documentary photography — real people, real environments, real moments. Shot to feel lived-in rather than staged.
Documentary & Lifestyle Storytelling
Branding · Business Identity

Capabilities
Creative Director
Full-concept direction from mood board to final deliverable. I build the visual world first — casting, styling, location, emotional narrative arc.
Cinematography & Film
I direct and shoot. Music videos, brand films, documentary, short form. Influenced by A24, Guy Ritchie, Sofia Coppola, Christopher Nolan.
Photography
Portraits, brand campaigns, documentary lifestyle, editorial. Every frame shot with a cinematic eye — it should feel like a scene, not a shot.
Brand Visual Identity
Visual language strategy beyond a color palette. The look, the feeling, the story — developed and built to scale across channels.
On-Camera Hosting
Host of Proper Madness podcast and Teatime with Sabi video series. Experience directing interviews, on-camera talent, and long-form content.
Production
Pre-production planning, on-set direction, and post-production oversight. I can run a lean production or slot into a larger crew.
