experience
I volunteered on the tech and media teams at a large local church for fifteen years while being on and off paid staff there. While on paid staff, I recorded and edited all announcement videos and I also did event videography and I have dabbled in graphic design for the church. Photography is a more recent endeavor for me, but I’ve owned photography cameras since I was old enough to hold one.
My experience with photography is growing and I hope you can be part of that growth!
equipment
Canon 80D
Canon 2000D
Canon Rebel T6
iPhone 16 Pro
I will mostly be using my three Canon cameras for booked shoots, but you can’t deny the power of the cameras in the newer iPhones. They are an incredible tool for videography as well.
name origin
At a previous job, a co-worker and I would often work late nights when there were large-scale video projects to be done. This co-worker was the creative brains behind the projects and I was the one with the editing knowledge and skills to make her visions a reality. The two of us would often find ourselves scurrying down the dark halls of the building trying to get out before the security alarm would arm itself for the night. The room we edited in was always kept dark and others began to call it our “editing cave.” But one night, as we were sneaking through the dark building on our way out, my co-worker said, “we’re like rats crawling out of our cave when everyone else is gone.”
And thus was born “The Rat Cave.”
