Eric was great to work with. On a super tight timeline, he helped us plan this shoot from beginning to end, and handled all the producing on our piece on an architectural firm. This was for a large news client, and all his work was efficient, well thought out, and supportive of the series ideas. Thank you Eric, and can't wait to work with you again!

Eric was exceptional. He traveled a considerable distance to make our shoot happen, was professional, timely, responsive, and patient. He delivered the footage promptly and was a delight to work with. I would highly recommend him for filming an interview and b-roll.
