This production showcases just how much we thrive on cultivating captivating performances from real people and crafting vivid stories that you feel.

Watch “Impact the Future” the seven minute Documentary Short that we were hired to create for Fund For Teachers.

In addition to producing this project from pre-pro through directing, and every element of post (editing, color grading, sfx, audio mixing), we also collaborated with Emmy nominated composer Christian Moder in writing the musical score.

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

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!
