“Mick worked at the Grand Hyatt Nashville throughout 2020 and 2021. During this time we discovered his photography & videography talents. After seeing several pieces of his work, we began to incorporate Mick’s talents as he assisted us with professional shoots and staging. Mick also produced content for our website and & social media that included beautiful photos and videos of our hotel and restaurant. Mick and his team have my highest professional recommendation.”

Having previously worked in restaurants, hotels, and cafes for several years, I fell in love with hospitality and the people who work within it.

Since  going full-time in photography & video production (after a decade of experience honing my skills), my heart has stayed within the hospitality industry. Now I focus on merging the things I love: cameras, creativity, food, & hospitality.

I’m on a mission to tell great stories in hospitality through content creation.

Please check out my work and if you’re interested, I would love to have a quick chat to share more about what we can do for you.

Below are some samples of my video work in hospitality. While I love photography, when it comes to my passions, cinematic storytelling via video has always taken the cake.

Hospitality Headshot + Lifestyle Photography

Below, I share a small handful of my efforts to capture the human spirit by photographing people. Because hospitality would be nothing without the individuals who make our industry magical.

“Mick is my go-to photographer and video content creator here in Nashville. Over the years, I’ve watched him evolve into a highly regarded photographer, video creator, and social media strategist. You won’t regret hiring Mick and his team for your hotel & restaurant’s marketing content needs. “
