I’m Klaye, a Los Angeles–based photographer and filmmaker with a style that leans editorial, cinematic, and story-driven. My background is a mix of artistry and technical precision — the kind of hybrid creative who can light a shot like a pro, direct talent with ease, and edit a film that hits every emotional beat.
Over the years, I’ve worked across fashion campaigns, music videos, weddings, branded content, portraits, and behind-the-scenes storytelling — always with the goal of creating work that feels elevated and emotionally true. Whether I’m capturing a slow, intimate moment or crafting a fast-paced fashion film, I’m always chasing the story beneath the surface.
I shoot with Sony, Blackmagic, Nikon and Red systems, and I’m fluent in Adobe Creative Suite, Photoshop, Lightroom, Adobe Premier, Capture One, DaVinci Resolve, and some After Effects. I love working with creative teams who aren’t afraid to push the envelope and brands that want to do more than just “look good” — they want to be remembered.
Based in Los Angeles, available in San Diego and Las Vegas. Open to travel for the right projects (especially if travel is covered). I’m currently booking both freelance and full-time creative work across the following areas:
Fashion Photography & Fashion Films
Commercials & Branded Content
Music Videos
Wedding Films & Editorial Portraits
Behind-the-Scenes Content Creation
Creative Direction & Visual Storytelling
Video Editing, Color Grading, and Post-Production
If your project calls for bold visual storytelling and a reliable, creative partner behind the lens — let’s connect.
Here are some quick answers to the most common questions I get about what I do, how I work, and how we can collaborate.
I'm open to hybrid roles that combine creative production with technical problem-solving — ideally something in film/media production, digital content strategy, or cloud-based creative tech.
Yes! I'm available for freelance projects and creative consulting — from content production and branding to workflow optimization and cloud infrastructure design.
Absolutely. I’m based in Los Angeles but I’m comfortable with remote work and open to travel for the right opportunity or creative collaboration.
On the tech side: AWS, GCP, Kubernetes, Terraform, Linux. On the creative side: Adobe Creative Suite, DaVinci Resolve, and advanced post-production workflows. I also work with Canon, Red, Nikon, Sony, and Blackmagic camera systems.
Yes — I’ve done this for both Missfit Studios and client brands. I specialize in setting up scalable content creation systems, optimizing workflows, and aligning strategy with visuals.
It’s the balance. I bring deep experience from both worlds — creative direction and enterprise-level engineering. I understand storytelling and systems, and I know how to make them work together.

Whether I’m behind the camera, in the edit bay, or deep in the cloud, my goal is always the same — to build experiences that connect, inspire, and function at the highest level. I bring a rare mix of creative direction and technical execution, making me the kind of asset that doesn’t just fit into teams — I elevate them. If you’re looking for someone who can bring big-picture thinking and hands-on skills to the table, I’m ready when you are.
