BIO
Robert was born on the forgotten borough of Staten Island, NY and raised on the fairly tame streets on Long Island. After a childhood of movie obsessions, Robert sought a film degree from Temple University. Since 2005 Robert has worked steadily in the film and television world as a director and dp. Most recently he has focused on cinematic documentary work. In 2017 Robert directed his first feature film, "Wild Men". He DP'd his first feature film, "Rub", in 2021.
Carrying over fifteen years of cinematography experience with him, he jumped head first into portrait and product photography in 2018. Focusing heavily on a cinematic look, Robert strives to create art that encapsulates the feeling of an entire film into a singe frame.
He currently resides in Nashville, TN.
