Movement Gyms Chicago
Art Directed and Shot Large-Scale Photos Installed in Movement’s New Rock Climbing Gyms That Captured the Chicago Climbing Community's Spirit
Selecting local climbers as models, I led a multi-day shoot at Devil's Lake and Governor's Dodge State Parks to capture adventurous photography for display (up to 23ft x 10ft) in training areas at the brand new Movement gyms. As creative lead on location, I ensured each shot would inspire Chicago climbers and reflect local pride while aligning with Movement's brand voice. The result: 9 wall prints that transformed blank gym spaces into inspiring environments celebrating Chicago's climbing community.

Created Compelling Christmas Campaign Imagery For World Vision's Child Sponsorship Program to Deliver Assets That Drive Donor Engagement

Working with limited crew and safety protocols, I styled sets to capture the warmth and hope of the holiday season for their child sponsorship program, delivering compelling assets for web and print that helped connect donors with children in need.
