Discover Top Documentary DPs in Chattanooga, Tennessee, USA

I am a filmmaker with a desire to make films that open people's minds to situations that they are not familiar with. Namely, the plight of our young black men. Being a mentor and youth minister, I also have a sincere passion to help our young people find their way. I have been a mentor since I was in high school myself; it seemed like all the young people from complicated homes would flock to me. I have over 20 young black males that I mentor currently, with seven being incarcerated. I have a desire to make films that both haunt people and inspire them to do what they can to make someone else's situation a little easier..

After 30 years as a national newspaper and magazine photojournalist, I’ve incorporated those story-telling skills into cinematic projects that grab hearts and reshape public opinions about people in society who are often devalued and marginalized. Stories are king. Compelling still images, strong narratives, creative b-roll and well-paced editing create video projects that keep the readers watching.
