    I had a great experience working with Chris. As both a producer and DP for this project, he met the vision I had for my project -- both in terms of sharp video visuals and also thoughtful storytelling. And he was available for pre-productions check-ins to make sure everything ran smoothy before we had even started.

    Chris delivered what it was asked for, but with an added value and great quality that fits with the rest of the footage we have for this video. His visual treatment was excellent, and he dealt with some logistical last-minute challenges with our character.

    It was very easy to work with Chris. He replied in a timely manner to all my calls and messages, and got in touch with the subject to introduce himself. His footage looked good and he sent everything in a timely manner. I'd work with Chris again.

    "Changing the streets one heartbeat at a time"

    Paul Avila’s son, Pauly, born blind and autistic, could only be calmed with the sound of music in his ears. Inspired by his son’s reaction to music, Paul, with his own money, purchased radio headsets and distributed them to the homeless on skid row. These headsets seemed to give them the feeling of being connected with the world around them. Paul has a yearly event for the homeless.
