Eddy was a great asset on a complicated, interview heavy, multi-day shoot. He worked well under tight deadlines and was perfect as a one-man band set up. Eddy was personable and easy to work with. His stuff looked great and was good about checking that everything was lit and mic'd correctly. Sometimes small details can slip through the cracks but this wasn't the case. I would absolutely recommend him for your project.

Eddy did a fabulous job covering Hurricane Joaquin in the Bahamas for us. He moved very fast and captured exclusive footage of humanitarian efforts on the ground from a devestated island. He is extremely communicative and is able to upload footage quickly. Will hire again.
