DIT SERVICES
Tethered capture, live color, and file workflow. So the shoot runs smoothly from first frame to final delivery.
The Technical Foundation of a Professional Shoot
On a well-run shoot, the digital imaging technician is the person nobody talks about. The files are always organized. The tether never drops. Color looks right on the monitor. The backup finished ten minutes ago. Nobody had to ask. That's the job.
I manage the entire digital workflow on set: tethered capture, live color management, redundant backup, and organized file handoff, so the photographer can stay focused on the creative work.
What's Included
Live camera-to-workstation connection via TetherPro. Setup, troubleshooting, and stable operation throughout the shoot day. Capture One and Lightroom.
Calibrated display and real-time color pipeline between capture and output. What the monitor shows is what the files contain.
Redundant backup to multiple drives using ChronoSync. Files named, organized, and ready for post before the wrap.
Gear recommendations, tethering troubleshooting, workflow audits, and day-of tech support. Available for partial days and studio prep.
Equipment
Photographers, Directors, and Production Teams
Available for studio and on-location work in Chicago and nationally. Based in Chicago's Gold Coast, I'm positioned for quick calls across the city — River North studios, Fulton Market productions, West Loop locations, and anywhere else in the metro area. I work with commercial photographers, advertising agencies, catalog and editorial productions, video productions requiring stills, and any shoot where the digital workflow needs dedicated attention.

Why a Dedicated DIT
The photographer's attention stays on the subject, the light, and the client. The DIT handles everything behind the lens.
A good DIT anticipates: a warming laptop, a stressed cable, a card reader acting up. Small issues get resolved quietly. Big ones get flagged with a solution ready.
Files organized, named, backed up, and ready. Post-production starts from a solid foundation, not a pile of unorganized RAW files.
