My Story

+JMJ+

My work IN visual art and media comes from my desire to carry out the mission of Jesus Christ AND HIS CHURCH, bringING others to know Him and LOVE HIM THROUGH THE IMAGES I CAPTURE.

Hi. I’m Neal.

I’ve always been fascinated by stories—especially those told through visual media. I began creating short video projects in high school, and by the time I went to college I was already working professionally as a freelance videographer and photographer. Graduating with my degree in Communication Studies (with an emphasis in documentary filmmaking) and English, as well as with a few documentary films under my belt, I have spent the last 12 years working professionally in the creative industry.

I have collaborated with incredible, faithful brands, small businesses, parishes, apostolates, and nonprofit organizations over the years. My films have screened at festivals across the U.S. as well as internationally, and also on public television. My greatest creative passion is faith-based documentary film and commercial production—to make Him known and loved through capturing the true, the good, and the beautiful.

My film work has also led me to a deep passion for still photography. I love capturing the priceless moments of everyday family life, shooting epic product photos for startups, allowing personalities to shine from behind the camera in portraiture, and, most meaningfully, photographing the sacramental life of the Church.

I am constantly expanding my creative, artistic, and technological knowledge and experience, and I enjoy any opportunity I have to test my abilities in the field.

To make Him known + loved.
