In my own words

— Will

I am a photographer, art director, and designer based in Portland Oregon and founder of <a href="https://exlitore.xyz" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Ex Litore</a>.

With over 10 years experience in a number of different industries, I bring to the table a unique perspective that walks a line between dramatic and understated. The natural world is a common theme in my work with images evoking a spontaneous feel with narrative elements. In May 2022, I released <a href="https://www.exlitore.xyz/titanmag" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Titan Magazine</a> to contribute to the preservation of the print medium, to publish diversely, equitably, promote global connectivity, inspire, and educate. In April 2024, I founded <a href="https://www.exlitore.xyz" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Ex Litore</a>, a full-service photography and video production studio that helps businesses of all sizes create compelling visual content that will help them achieve their marketing goals. <a href="https://exlitore.xyz" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Ex Litore</a> offers a wide range of services, including branding, photography, video, and print.
