Shooting in RAW and in 4:4:4 color space also gives great flexibility, such as:
- Editing each frame individually in Lightroom, or all at once using LUTs
- Using tools like Raw2DNG, RawMagic, and MLRawViewer for crazy fast ingestion
I use a number of programs for color correction and grading, including:
- Premiere/Lumetri Pro
- Davinci Resolve 14
- Photoshop, Lightroom (as DNG)
- MLRawViewer, RAWMagic

rigs
I own all of my equipment, so you'll rarely need to rent — thereby reducing your costs considerably. If you need any very specialized equipment, I still handle all the renting myself; so no need to worry.
A point which I pride myself on, have won awards in, and enjoy very thoroughly. I am more than happy to crawl into some tiny crevasse or climb a cliff to get the right shot.
I have made many camera rigs to accommodate multiple needs; be they hand-held, tripod, slider, mounted on the exterior of a car, and many more.
AERIAL CINEMATOGRAPHY
post-shoot image flexibility
color correction + grading
Getting shots from the air has an unparalleled effect on your presentation and audience response -- whether it's helicopter-style sweeping shots of your wedding, or fly-bys of your organization's building, there's nothing at all like it... and few who can pull it off well.
Shooting in RAW allows for incredible flexibility in post. All frames can be batch edited directly in Resolve or individually edited in Lightroom or as a DNG sequence in After Effects. I can deliver the footage in RAW, DNG, or compressed into video formats.
I can do initial phase color-correction before I even get the footage to you, so that it matches any other cameras you use, or match it with any film stock using pro LUTs.
For grading, I use Lumetri Pro and Davinci Resolve 16 to create stunning results.

Adam does things, sometimes. It's said of him that he does things.
And that's great, right? Woo.
And this is the third one. The thing.
Whether you need a director or director of photography for your crew, an editor, sound mixer, or otherwise — I am adept at all of those aspects, and have won festival awards in all of those categories.
I would love to sit down with you or your crew and discuss the details of your project, your vision, or even just your goal at large; to ensure that the end product is an outcome that is the manifestation of your dream. I hope to help augment and positively enhance that dream, providing the skills to make it happen.
