APPROACH

At Salty Wave, I believe every conservation cause, every animal, and every creative initiative has a story worth telling - one that goes beyond data, and touches hearts.

My role is to craft visual experiences that allow your audience to feel what you stand for. I don't just produce content - I partner with you to reveal the deeper narrative of your work. 

Empathy first storytelling: I create imagery and media that evoke emotion and reflect your values.

Purpose driven visuals: Whether it's wildlife conservation, animal welfare or eco-education, your message guides the creative process.

High quality production: From concept to final cut, using photography, video and interactive media to amplify your mission. 

Collaborative process: I work with organisations that care - NGO's, creative businesses, animal shelters, eco brands - to make sure every frame is meaningful.

GET TO KNOW US

I bring my skills and expertise in multimedia production to create high quality visual stories from concept to final presentation, for documentaries, exhibits, educational, promotional, website design and photography projects.
