Story Producer
I wanted to put (DP) above not Camera Op. bcs Tom is much more than a camera op. (DP wasn't offered in the drop down menu). He is a Director of photography. He has a vision when he works on a shoot and always delivers the very best in a multitude ...MORE...
of situations from- A sit down interview to a run and gun environment to a camera person shooting music. He shoots artists- musicians, specifically women who need to look their very best. Tom makes them look fantastic. He works w/ countless musicians and other talent and has a terrific rapport with them and their camps. He is a team player, he makes producers look good too by hiring him. He owns his own gear and is a great hang!
- Kathryn was Producer and Tom was Camera Operator on CMT Crossroads, Kenny Rogers Frewell Tribute and many more
