Who is Sol

As a Christian, I put God first in everything I do. He guides me to work hard in school, my business, and my community. My faith shapes how I treat people, whether a client, stranger, or collaborator. To me, kindness and showing up aren't separate from the work. They are the work.

I founded Sol Media as a student who wanted to learn by pushing past my comfort zone. I do good work when I'm comfortable, but I do my best work when something is new and I have to figure it out.

My slogan, "Precision in Every Angle," reflects my belief that a great photo starts in the camera. I want the raw image to be so clean it could be posted as is. Anyone can generate AI media, but they can't replicate someone showing up, understanding the emotion behind your business, and capturing it authentically.

Outside of work, I'm usually with my loved ones or my dogs, enjoying art and music, or meeting new people, which is how most of my favorite work begins.
