Amusbe - A museum of black experiences
I've specialized in creating captivating photo content for historical artifacts, a skill honed during my tenure at a company that often discarded valuable items. My role extended beyond mere documentation; I meticulously prepared these artifacts for photography, inventory management, and safe transportation to museums. Notably, I rescued a significant piece, the 1730s-1780s statue titled “Am I not a Man and a Brother?” This endeavor involved not only documenting and donating numerous artifacts but also maintaining comprehensive photography and inventory records across multiple donations.
In addition to my hands-on preservation efforts, I facilitated donation logistics and paperwork in collaboration with museum curators. Through my dedication to capturing and presenting engaging visual narratives, I've contributed to preserving the stories behind various statues, artworks, and books. Below are just a few examples of the many artifacts I've salvaged, meticulously documented, and donated with detailed photographic inventories.

I stumbled upon a broken Yi Jun Dancing Hero Iron Man Musical Light-up Robot, which I meticulously repaired and documented in a detailed video. I also photographed the restored robot against vibrant backgrounds, aiming to revive its character and showcase its artistry and functionality. This project underscores my ability to transform a repair into a creatively captivating narrative, envisioning a series of artistic story ideas for a children's video series based on this revitalized toy from an obscure brand.

In this captivating tale, the hero robot becomes a beacon of joy, turning every scene into a magical adventure.

Delving into the creative process, I expanded the hero robot's tale by integrating special effects scenes. These visuals transcend traditional artwork, depicting the robot's arrival at scenes where it brings enchantment through dance, music, and dazzling lights. Each narrative captures the essence of the robot's cosmic journey, with vibrant FX scenes enhancing the dynamic fusion of elements. This creative approach not only heightens visual impact but also enriches the storytelling, inviting audiences into a vivid and enchanting world where ordinary moments become extraordinary spectacles.
Like air through water
Capturing the movement of air through water.
Here are images showcasing intricately formed air bubbles within frozen water, a personal case study and hobby project. During winter, I dedicated time to capturing the freezing process of water drippings from various objects and outdoor areas. My goal was to document and analyze how air moves through water during cold nights.
In this focused exploration, I sought to identify connections between factors like freezing speed on different nights and variations in water depth due to evaporation or rain. Through this leisurely investigation, I aimed to deepen my understanding of how environmental conditions influence the distinct freeze patterns seen in these water formations in areas of collected water pools.
New City Brewery
I provided comprehensive social media coverage during a live music night at New City Brewery. I captured the vibrant atmosphere of the event, featuring the live band performance on stage. This content was specifically created for social media platforms to highlight the brewery's dynamic events and engage with their audience. My coverage was meant not only promoted the event but also enhanced the brewery's online presence, driving more engagement and attracting future patrons.

I was commissioned for a swift project in Texas to support a friend with a significant client assignment. During this time, I meticulously documented the vinyl installation process of their client's new building, producing compelling promotional video content.

This material significantly bolsters their marketing efforts, effectively highlighting their services and enticing prospective clients. Through this project, I've demonstrated my proficiency in leveraging photo and video to capture construction project milestones and strategically promote grand openings within the construction industry.
East Meadow LLC Tree Removal Service
An exciting client I collaborated with was East Meadow LLC, a tree removal service in West Massachusetts. Our project aimed to capture and showcase their efficient workflow and quick turnaround time as they expertly removed a tree from a client's property. The video highlighted their ability to navigate obstacles such as power lines, hornets' nests, and close proximity challenges to buildings nearby.
By transforming their work into an engaging visual narrative, I created compelling content that East Meadow LLC can use to market their services to potential clients. This project underscores my ability to turn everyday tasks into captivating stories, effectively promoting businesses through dynamic video content.
