Filmmaker and photographer based in Chattanooga, TN.
Chasing my passion as a visual storyteller.
Over the last 10 years of having a camera in my hands, I have fallen deeply in love with the art of visual storytelling. I find extreme comfort behind a camera with open eyes and ears to listen to those willing to share their lives with me and many others.
In 2021, I left my full time job of 3 years as a videographer, editor, and much more to chase a career in freelance. Today, I focus on creating unique wedding films, telling stories of non profit ministries, and producing high quality, engaging corporate and commercial video content.
Get to know me…
Born and raised in Greenville, SC but now you can find me in Chattanooga, TN. I’ve been calling this place home for just about 5 years now and I absolutely love everything it has to offer.
When I don’t have a camera in my hands, I am probably in my wood shop making something for our home, creating a new pattern for leather working, or fixing up my old single speed Surly Steamroller. As a former barista, I love making at home coffee or wandering to a local shop with my wife and 2 sons.
I love vintage style, specifically with photos and video. I shoot on my film camera when I can and always love the photos more than anything digital. I’ve been on the hunt for a Super 8 film camera for a long time now and hope to incorporate real film into my videos.
“Clay was perfect to work with for our video production needs. He had great ideas to add to our story and was in constant contact with me about the process.”
