Albany Director of Photography
About
Karl makes his home in New York’s Hudson Valley and finds his work in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic. He has been known to travel far and wide, though, so give him a call! He specializes in commercial, lifestyle, and corporate video production, working with businesses like Capital One Bank, CarMax, Nemacolin Woodlands Resort, Custom Ink, and Morgan Stanley. His easy presence is welcome on set, making the creative process enjoyable for everyone involved. Karl picked up his first camera at age 6 and never looked back. His career has led him throughout the image making process, from studio to printing lab, Assistant Cameraman to Director of Photography.
Karl is driven by the adventure of life to make great work and have fun doing it. A graduate of Virginia Commonwealth University’s School of the Arts, his passion for creating images has taken him around the U.S. and the world. Chasing snowy lines through dense trees while skiing in British Columbia. Burning the soles of his feet on the black sand beaches of the Canary Islands. Hiking along knife edge cliffs of the Appalachian Trail. Wandering narrow alleys and markets in Rhodes. These are a few of his favorite photo memories.
