The point of contact between booking and delivery. Owns timelines, vendor communication, travel logistics, and album production. The reason nothing falls through the cracks.

Leads the sister studio focused on detail-driven cinematography — the toast no one heard, the grandmother's hands, the quiet beats most photographers miss.
We don’t freelance pieces of your day to vendors who’ve never met before sunrise. The team you book is the team that arrives — same crew on photo and film, same editor cutting both, same delivery. It’s why our weddings look like a single film, not a patchwork.
