From the Front Lines
Documenting first responders with depth and passion.
Fire on Film, founded in May of 2024, offers a unique perspective on emergency scenes—one that most people rarely, if ever, witness in their daily lives. I strive to capture moments beyond the surface, documenting the intensity, bravery, and humanity that define every call first responders answer.
