About
Pyro since five. Filming since college.
I've been interested in fireworks since I was five, but started filming them while I was in college. YouTube hadn't quite taken off yet, so I was posting them to the PyroU forums. Eventually I switched over to YouTube, and the rest is history.
Today the channel holds more than 3,500 videos: professional displays, pyro company demos, competitions and everything in between. I've filmed displays around the country and also internationally.

What I shoot with
The most common question I get. This is the current kit — nothing exotic, and none of it is what makes the shot. Years of experience do.
Reference videos
For anyone curious about filming their own.

Hire me to film your show
It's a wide range I am open to — raw video, post-processed video, I've even done multi-cam videos of shows and a private documentary of a full show setup to teardown. Inquire for pricing and availability.
What that can look like
