My skills
Hi there! My name is Perry and I currently work as a videographer and photographer. Getting to visit new places and meeting new people is my absolute passion! I am so grateful that I have a skill-set that allows me to not only experience new things, but because I am a photographer and video director, I can also share my travels with the world. To-date, I am award-winning, I have created a evision show in college, and have worked on all sorts of projects, from landscape photography to full-length feature films! My true inspiration for what I do is the ability to hear and l stories and also create inspiration for others to follow their passions. I want to be able to adventure more of the world, and use my abilities of photography and video to encourage people to travel, go out, and participate in adventurous things for themselves!

When working with the non-profit organization ‘ARK Project Now’, we heard about the story of a student who had tragically been shot and paralyzed on his college campus.

About Me
I was raised in a small town in the state of Oregon on the west-coast of the United States. Growing up, I was fascinated by movies, and decided at a young age that I wanted to be a filmmaker. From then on, I studied film and photography in and out of school. During college, I brought a group of like-minded people together and started a studied ran evision show called "Glimpses" in which students could create their own shows that were broadcast on TV! During a summer, I went to the University of Southern California to attend their Directing Intensive course. During the course, we created our own short films and studied under award-winning professors. The short film I made was eventually featured in the Comicon Film Festival, which caught a little wind, and I was given funds to create another short. At this point, I was much more experienced and wrote and directed anther film, which won Best Thriller Short in the reputable Oregon Film Festival. During this time, I branded my own company, and currently work as a photographer and video director and producer. My work has brought me all throughout the country working on music videos, narrative pieces, corporate works, and documentaries.
