Bio

I'm Cade, a creative director and content producer based in Atlanta. I'm currently studying Media and Entertainment at Kennesaw State University with a minor in marketing.

My work sits at the intersection of brand photography, social media, and visual identity. I've managed content and creative direction for brands like Sessions Stand Brasserie and Micah-Angelo's Pizza, and I spend a lot of time thinking about how brands present themselves and why it matters.

Outside of creative work, I'm usually making coffee at Sessions Stand or finding something new to listen to.

Mission

I care about how things look and feel before anyone explains what they are. That's what drew me to creative direction in the first place. A brand's first impression usually isn't a pitch deck or a mission page. It's a photo, a post, a color choice. I want to be the person thinking about those moments.

Most of my work has been with food, music, and lifestyle brands in Atlanta. I've managed social media for restaurants I also work inside of, and I've shot content for brands I've been around long enough to understand on a personal level. That proximity matters to me. It's easier to tell a real story when you're actually part of it.

I'm drawn to photography, brand identity, and visual storytelling. I like building things that feel consistent and intentional, and I'm still learning what that looks like at every level. Right now, I'm studying Media and Entertainment at Kennesaw State, running social media pages for local brands, and figuring out the kind of creative career I want to grow into.

Featured Project

Catch Me If You Can | “Favorite Film Scene” REMAKE

A student recreation of the hotel room scene from Catch Me If You Can, produced for COMM 3340: Digital Media Production at Kennesaw State University. I directed, shot, mixed, and edited the project on a Canon EOS 70D and 200D, with audio captured on Hollyland Lark 2 wireless mics and the final cut assembled in Final Cut Pro X. Four-person cast, one grip, two shoot days.
