About

I’m David, middle name Nick (see URL)! 

I'm a visual creative who loves to use images to tell authentic human stories. Maybe that's why horror is my favorite film genre. It plays on our deepest emotions and fears, and it only works when there's something true underneath.

Naturally, I believe there's so much creative potential for storytelling in this current moment in which we find ourselves. People can smell fake a mile away and they loathe it. Authenticity is one of the most valuable currencies around, but many still try to pull away, introduce artifice, force the issue, or "run it through Claude!"   

I prefer the populist approach to creativity: give the people what they want. Lead with the human parts, the emotion, the wonder, the desire for knowledge, the love of art, all the above which can't yet be algorithmically synthesized. That's why I like to tell stories about people, because those are the stories that people love to experience, AND those are the stories that sell. 

Today, I leverage my Film & Media Arts degree and my years of commercial photography experience to create high-quality visual assets at scale, which seamlessly integrate into a brand's marketing and campaign strategies. You can view my work in the luggage aisle of your local Target, Walmart, Costco, or online at various retailers. 

Thank you for reading all of that.
