have a project? please reach out.
I am a self-taught filmmaker and photographer based in Bozeman, Montana. Raised in the mountains of central Idaho, I have always felt most at home when immersed in remote and rugged landscapes. My fascination with the natural world and knack for cameras evolved into a passion by the age of 13 when I worked for a summer at a pizza shop to fund the purchase of my first camera, a mini DV camcorder. Since then, technologies have evolved as have Axel’s innate abilities. From passion projects in far-off places to jobs with Red Bull Media House and National Geographic, I have embraced the call to capture landscapes, mountains, people, and wildlife through video, storytelling, and photography.
