About

Hey, I’m Sonny.

I’m a creative producer in Washington, DC. I make documentary work, run live events, and build the software I wanted while planning my own shoots.

Most of my work starts as a format rather than a brief, and ends somewhere an audience actually is. I lead and build full units, and I know the craft well enough to shoot and record it myself.

That has taken me into service kitchens, secret-location gigs in six cities, and a ten-seat dining room on a Tuesday night.
