When David’s not traveling for a project, he’s home in Santa Fe with his wife, Claudia, and their two Rhodesian Ridgebacks, Luna and Leo. When he needs quiet, he heads to the garage. A refuge. Part workshop, part think tank—where ideas take shape through making.
Meet David
I got my first camera at eight years old and never really put it down. From school hallways to family gatherings to friends’ bands, I was always the one behind the lens. Long before it became a career, it was simply how I learned to see.
I came up in the heart of the music and entertainment world, working alongside top photographers and directors on campaigns for Rolling Stone, MTV, major labels, and television networks. It was an intense education in creativity—and in shaping the visual language of a generation.
Over time, I moved behind the camera myself, shooting, editing, and directing music videos. That hands-on experience taught me how to see stories from every angle, stay nimble under pressure, and keep the creative process moving.
Today, I bring that perspective to producing. I lead with a clear vision, stay grounded in the details, and thrive on the collaborative problem-solving that happens on set. No ego—just good work, done well, with good people.
With years of experience producing documentaries, music videos, and large-scale ad campaigns, I’m comfortable balancing schedules, gear, budgets, and personalities. I’m calm in the chaos—focused on protecting both the work and the creative energy behind it.
I’ve collaborated with everyone from Oscar-winning directors to first-time creatives, and I show up the same way every time—with respect, clarity, and a genuine love for the process.
