Quality universal child care lifts every Californian. That’s the takeaway of this spot for Early Edge California — a leading advocate for universal B-3 — which we were honored to develop and produce. Thanks to all who went the extra mile bringing this to life. ❤️

Four days in Seattle, building a cinematic library of imagery for PACCAR — the parent company of Kenworth, Peterbilt, and TRP. We captured service bays, retail counters, staged truck exteriors, and studio product shots with a full cast and multiple units working in sync. While motion was captured on the ARRI Alexa, stills were driven entirely by the Leica SL3 with APO-Summicron primes, with generous support from Leica Camera. Our goal was to match the richness and grounded tone of our motion work — and the SL3 delivered beautifully. Clean, true, and full of soul, straight out of camera. Grateful to Leica for the support, and PACCAR, FCB, and NHS for backing the vision.
