What I make

01The Street Series

Daily portraits of real people, published to an audience of 2M+ across Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok. Brands integrate into the format organically while making people smile.

02Live Activations

I photograph event attendees and deliver portraits with your branding. By now guests are as excited to get a picture with me as one from me, and those moments make for viral content.

03Talent & Campaigns

Talent comes to me: Kevin Hart, Will Smith, Mark Wahlberg, and French Montana's teams have reached out directly. Campaign coverage to event photography on arena stages.

Case study
South Street Sam (Sami Aziz) photographed on South Street for the Comcast Xfinity "Because of WiFi" campaign

"Because of WiFi"

Comcast built an Xfinity campaign around me as its face. 4M+ views on Instagram, extended across Facebook, TikTok, and LinkedIn. People nationwide reached out after seeing it, the mark of a campaign that landed as a person rather than an ad.
