Have you ever gotten bad news over the phone? Was moving a lot of old footage onto new drives at 3am and came across this shot I took in NYC when shooting for the “Beach House” music video and this whole vibe really hit me. 2019 will go down as one of the most iconic and difficult years for me. Stoked for how’s things are looking for these next few months.
Tequila, Mexico - its a real place with a lot of tequila. So much they make hotel rooms out of them. We flew here straight from a 3am Vegas show, spent 12 hours to film and flew back to LA for a midnight arrival. It’s was a long day on our feet.
@spencermiller and I were listening to about 20 different remixes on our way to this show when in my head I laid out the entire video and how I wanted the narrative to go. This made the actual editing process boring but watching it completed feels amazing to have an amazing story told. Shout to @spencermiller for helping make this video happen.
Haven’t posted much about this project but blown away by the amount of you that know what this photo means and have seen this project.
Who wants to shoot with this car @vwthyng ? Let me know! Shot by @evanpaterakis on film developed by @gustothirtyfive
Overheard someone talking about “how good it feels to be on summer break”. Let me tell you how good it feels to not be in school where everyday feels like summer and I don’t keep track do what day or time it is. It’s actually the best and I still haven’t gotten over it. Here are a few 3d gifs from my never ending summer.
Writing this one down so I can remember it. In the past 30 days I’ve taken 18 flights, shot 17 concerts, visited 14 countries, helped build and shoot 4 brand campaigns, edited a music video, tour video, 200 edited images, made 30 short video assets, all in the middle of a production TOBK is doing for a TV spot. Just waking up from a crazy first run with @alesso doing 5 shows in 3 days and man does it feel good to be home. Catch me in the editing bay tomorrow.✌🏼don’t text me. 😂
“Hey remember when you were in your 20’s you filled up 3 passports in 3 years because these artists took you around the world with them”
I’ve stayed away from a lot of music tours this year because I knew how heavy the end of this year would be and wanted to save my energy and creativity for when it mattered most. So many unshared moments like this from the past month in Europe that I’m stoked to share this week.
Massive music video I directed for @thechainsmokers next single drops tomorrow. We were the first official production to close down @thevesselnyc and it was truly an amazing opportunity. One hand up if you’re ready to see this thing 🙋🏼‍♂️. Photos by - @chadnutter
These are the moments you write books about.
Slow is the new fast this summer for me when I’m in Los Angeles. Photos by: @blotch
Been roaming around Europe with friends holding onto unreleased projects and products and it’s been hard to keep them a secret. Today the first one drops. Photo by: @danilolewis
I say this in my captions probably every three months but it’s something that continues to blow my mind. We live in a special time where you can be whoever you want to be and do whatever you want to do in this world. I look at photos like this and can’t believe it’s something I was able to do even weeks later. I feel like half of you on this platform know my story of how my work and hobbies have come about and know that it wasn’t handed to me and I’m still working hard for my spot in this world.

Artist working with artists. That’s what June has been all about and now it’s time for a month of Europe hustle with @thechainsmokers And @theyachtweek And friends. Very grateful for everyone I get to work with and having a platform to share it on. Photos by @chadnutter
Officially announced on my YouTube who I’ll be flying out to LA from the #tobktwitchcontest. Thanks for everyone who picked it up and has used it in their projects. Photo by @blotch
