“We do not get the same moment twice in life. Life is made up of moments, and these moments pass quickly. To capture them in pure, honest form is my passion”
From San Francisco to Shanghai, Jim travels the world, creating innovative and lasting images that aim to deepen our connection to the human experience, helping us see more of ourselves in others. Specializing in lifestyle advertising, he has found that collaboration, teamwork, and excellent communication foster happy, long-lasting client relationships.
Whether in the back streets or on Wall Street, Jim thrives in environments of curiosity and discovery. His technical acumen, coupled with his ability to put cast and crew at ease, creates an engaging work environment where outstanding ideas and imagery come to life with energy and integrity. The process is fun, and the work is extraordinary.
Constantly pushing the boundaries of visual storytelling, Jim seeks to uncover the unexpected in the ordinary, emphasizing the commonalities that unite us. Celebrating diversity is one of his guiding principles.
A lifelong Californian, Jim grew up in Los Angeles, graduated from the Brooks Institute of Photography in Santa Barbara, and now calls San Francisco home, both personally and professionally. He draws inspiration from his wife, two amazing daughters, and three furry, four-legged creatures. When not on set, you can find Jim on the golf course aiming for par, or enjoying wakesurfing and snowboarding in the great outdoors.
Jim is an experienced advertising lifestyle photographer and director who has traveled the globe with his technically skilled team, working with clients like Hewlett Packard, United Airlines, AT&T, GE Healthcare, Wells Fargo, and global pharmaceutical companies. He consistently delivers powerful, award-winning images that aim to connect us to the human experience and foster greater empathy among us all.
