I’m not much of a blogger—but I am a storyteller.
This space is the behind-the-scenes heartbeat of Skull Dogs Media. It’s where we share what doesn’t always make it into the final cut: the setup days, the ramen breaks, the mic mishaps, the wins (and occasional fumbles) that make each shoot unforgettable.
Go behind the scenes with Skull Dogs Media as we document our journey—part production house, part passion project, all heart. Whether we’re filming poets in cozy queer libraries or testing camera rigs in the middle of a heatwave, this blog is where we keep it scrappy, honest, and real.
Come for the stories. Stay for the dogs.
Keep Howling

This photoshoot was a fun one.
While I was setting up this website, I reached the About Us page and realized the only images I had featuring both me and Jose were all selfies. I figured it was time to fix that.
