WE DOCUMENT THE DARK

Shadows Speak. We Listen.

The world is loud. It demands you smile, pretend, and filter out the cracks. We don't do that here.Knotted Tree Studios is not a standard production house. We are a digital archive for the stories that live in the margins. The gritty, the haunted, the beautiful things that hide in the dark. We don't fix the imperfections. We frame them.Whatever a project needs, we have the network of creators to pull it off.

About Me.->

Sorry Not Sorry

I'm just a man with a camera and a computer. Some call my work garbage, some call it art, I call it fun. At the end of the day that's really all that matters.

I've been blessed to work with some amazing individuals and I wouldn't change any of the experiences I have gained or the lessons I have learned along the way. I've bled, I've healed, and I'll never apologize for who I am again. I love to shoot, I love to create, and I love to see artistic expression manifested. So let's light one up, turn the camera into manual, and get to shooting!

All Of The Branches

It's been a long road to get where I'm at, and I've picked up some amazing skills along the way. I've had the privilege of dipping my toes into almost every aspect of the creative industry: web design, SEO, graphic design, marketing, advertising, ecommerce, and more. But what I've found is that I'm most comfortable behind a camera and a computer. You only learn from the mistakes you make, and I've made plenty. The goal now is to produce, have a blast doing it, and bring the twisted concepts that live inside my head to life. If you find my style works well with a project you have in mind, then throw caution to the wind and let's get jamming!

COMMISSIONS ->
Photography

I've shot a variety of genres, but what I gravitate to most are themed projects. My roots are in boudoir, so it's not uncommon to see tastes of that sprinkled into my work.

Videography

I've touched a lot in this category, and telling a story has always been a passion. As I continue to grow, you'll see more and more narrative projects start to surface.
