Gary was professional and easy to work with. I hired Gary last minute to handle on-site editing for a client project in Las Vegas, and Gary was very responsive and quick to communicate with me so that we could make arrangements for him to join the crew quickly. Gary arranged his travel, showed up early on the production days, and did great work for the duration of the project. Gary gets my full recommendation. Thanks, Gary!

Gary was very thorough and completed all tasks that we needed. He went the extra mile to make sure all files were delivered on time and sent without any hiccups. Gary was very professional throughout the whole process and even set up a laptop on site for me to ask questions to the subject. Would hire again if we needed camera services in the San Diego area.

Gary was very easy to work with and took direction from our team very well given the type of live event he was tasked with covering. He was on time and turned over the footage to us in a very timely fashion.

News Piece for CNBC on the history of Thrasher Magazine and Skateboarding. CNBC - Make It - Description: "In January 1981, Fausto Vitello and Eric Swenson launched Thrasher, a $1 magazine dedicated to professional skateboarding, gripping photography, influential music, skate culture and skate park reviews. The magazine was originally started as a marketing platform for Swenson and Vitello to promote their skate brand, Independent Trucks, but it garnered outside attention due to its punk-rock attitude. Thrasher’s mantra: Skate and Destroy. Thrasher Magazine has been coveted by the skate community for its authentic take on the subculture. The magazine was created for skate enthusiasts, by skate enthusiasts. But as skate culture moved from the fringes of pop culture to the mainstream, the Thrasher logo became a widespread signifier of “cool.” Young people rushed to get their hands on anything they could find with the iconic Thrasher logo, even if they were unaware of the brand’s rich history."
