owner/video producer/photographer

Max began making videos at USC film school. Shortly after graduation, he worked at legendary director Ridley Scott's film production company, Scott Free.  In 2010, Max stepped out on his own as a video producer, and in just a couple years made over a thousand videos for Ehow.com, countless video clips for Getty Images, and multiple Yelp videos for small businesses in the Los Angeles area.  In 2012, he moved back to his home state of Louisiana, and set up NolaVid in New Orleans. He now produces TV commercials, brand and corporate videos, photographs at events and more. He loves his small business clients as much as his large brands such as Marriott, Raising Cane's,  and Abita Brewing, among others. In his free time, Max enjoys hanging out with his family, reading and traveling.
