Originally from the Midwest and now based in the Phoenix Valley, my journey with the camera began in 2020 during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic. In the midst of lockdown, I picked up my first camera. What started as a way to stay creative quickly grew into a passion, and eventually, a purpose. The beauty of the Southwest became my canvas, and I just ran with it.

Since then, I’ve built Cihak 1 Visuals into my own creative brand, from hobby to career. Along the way, I’ve had the privilege of working with incredible clients, collaborating with talented creatives, and building meaningful relationships through visual storytelling. My portfolio ranges from landscape and travel content to commercial and global video production. I aim to create work that’s not just visually striking, but emotionally resonant.

When I’m not behind the camera, I enjoy exploring new places, connecting with others, and spending time with friends and family. Creativity is my highest form of expression and every project is a chance to share it with the world..

Thanks for stopping by, I’m glad you’re here.
