Description

Hi!
My name is Jack and I am a New York based photographer, filmmaker and painter. My work revolves around capturing unique and natural moments with a focus on wildlife, landscapes, and outdoor adventures. My typical days start before the sunrise when I head off to some local beaches to film seals, eagles, deer and the local surfers running down to catch their morning waves. My life is powered by caffeine so I regularly enjoy a coffee in the morning and probably another cup in the afternoon while I edit the photos and footage from the days activities.

My passion for filmmaking and photography has become a way for me to to tell stories and share unique experiences and I hope that it encourages people to explore and preserve the natural world. Recently I have been working with Oyster Farmers and Baymen around my home creating a documentary about the environmental and sustainability benefits of oyster and kelp farms!


I am on Workaway looking for unique destinations to help with projects involving sustainability and tourism... or maybe just helping you with your gardening and yardwork. :)

I would love to learn more about the culture in my destinations, expand my knowledge of languages, and how I can help my hosts accomplish their goals.

I have been a photographer and filmmaker for over 3 years and I have a background in fine art, painting and drawing which I had been doing for my entire life. I'm proficient in Adobe programs and some
past clients range from international liquor brands to resorts and small local businesses. However, my passion lies in wildlife and landscapes and I'm actively trying to move my career into the tourism and travel sector.

I love any outdoor activity; long boarding(skating), hiking, camping, kayaking, skiing and I used to fence quite a lot (think sword fighting).
