New Work: Real Stories

As part of the Real Help campaign that we created at HAWSE for our customer Okuma, this summer I had the opportunity to travel to 6 of Okuma's key customers to capture their unique stories. We enlisted Adam Boozer of Jewell & Ginnie out of Charleston, SC to partner with us on this journey. We couldn't have captured these stories in such a vital and engaging way if not for the talents of Adam and his team.

The shoots were quick and often spontaneous and took us to Toronto, Washington, Texas, Wisconsin, Utah and New York. The results were 6 short customer story films and still photography to be used throughout the campaign.
