As a filmmaker, photographer, outdoor enthusiast and frequent aquanaut, Justin has many passions in life. Born in Hawaii, raised in Washington state and visitor to many countries around the world, he finds comfort in variety and welcomes new experiences. Justin spent a few fractured years in university but left that chapter unfinished when he became enthralled with B&W photography and then took that underwater. Pairing that with his unrelenting excitement for discovery of the outdoors; school was no longer important. Since leaving school behind, Justin established himself as a filmmaker and photographer in the surf industry as well as an accomplished camera operator and aerial DP on Hollywood film sets and high-end commercial projects. ​As Justin's life unfolds and passions are realized, his work continues to take him around the world to countries such as Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Mexico, Brazil and many more to come. He's had the opportunity to work on high budget films such as Jurassic World 2, Netflix's The Wrong Missy and Marvel's Inhumans. He has also worked as an underwater cinematographer for the worlds largest diving YouTube channel in partnership with the US Navy EOD Team. Currently, Justin now works as an aerial DP and Camera Operator for Hawaii's premiere drone unit while he works to build a community of passionate creatives who want more out of their life and work to eventually escape the grind,
