“Nothing behind me, everything ahead of me, as is ever so on the road.” ― Jack Kerouac, On the Road
From leaning my head against the window, watching the landscape change on a family road trip, to pumping my fist in the air in desperation for that blaring horn of a passing truck, the romanticism of America’s open roads has always inspired me. These roads inspire ideas of freedom, choice, and possibility, ideas that continue to intrigue me to this day.
I had the opportunity to work with the incredible folks at Trevelino + Keller for Werner Enterprises. Together with producer Andrew Benson and DP Brandon Sullivan, our team captured and created images that reflect the various elements of the company’s portfolio and mission. In order to achieve more dynamic shots, we also partnered with local Arizona crane company, Reel Bros Media. Working with these behemoth trucks and swinging camera cranes is not an easy task and local law enforcement was also on-site to help with traffic. The entire shoot was a blast and an exciting glimpse into the industry that I’ve been fascinated with since childhood and the employees who make it all possible.
