A relationship built on story
From a television series to a one-person crew.
While directing Timber Kings for HGTV, I spent years working alongside the people at Pioneer Log Homes. When the company wanted to tell more of its stories on YouTube, they called me to make the series.
This time, there was no large television crew. It was me, an iPhone 17 Pro, a drone and DaVinci Resolve. That smaller setup let me move through each home with the people who knew it best, and shape a direct, personal tour for the people watching.
