It’s paramount to know that you can find yourself in the right town at the right time - even in 2020. I made this photograph last week.

Stay safe. Stay creative. Let’s Zoom! Let’s shoot!  , SAW

Landscapes & Environments

My Landscapes & Environments work is all about constructing mood. In much the same way that music conveys feeling, I want my vistas to evoke emotion. Essentially, I want my environment images to tell a story and have as much personality as my Lifestyle & Portrait work.

and… we’re back!

Well, within reason, of course. We have Covid Production Protocols in place and work with crew that takes precaution seriously. We are networked for you to view remotely, or safely on set with us in San Francisco and Los Angeles. Give me a call and I will walk you through our new workflow.

Hi there. I’m Stephen Austin Welch, a commercial director & advertising photographer. My specialties are capturing authentic lifestyle images, genuine portraits and dramatic landscapes. I also enjoy shooting intriguing interiors and graphic still lifes.
See ’em all on my websites:  spots  »  knsaw.com  &  stills  »  sawphoto.com

We shoot tv spots & still photographs for ad agencies, creative firms, companies and magazines both locally in California and around the globe. Be it macro or micro, all productions are handled with the same care and attention to detail to create inspiring images.

For photography projects, I am represented by TidePool.

For directorial projects, we work with a select handful of brilliant Executive Producers and above-and-beyond Line Producers strategically located across the country to give our productions an insider advantage.

Call me, SAW, for the next visual story you want to tell.

We love to shoot!
