I currently call Haines, Alaska home, but share much of my time abroad in Australia photographing musicians and actors. I studied radio and television broadcasting in college and love applying that education to any visual storytelling situation.

Stacy’s loved the craft of storytelling since childhood. Her family recalls a time she walked through a restaurant returning to the table with detailed backstories of the customers she’d met along the way. Growing up in Alaska spoke to Stacy’s insatiable sense of adventure. Much like production, Alaska offers wild variables quickly turning action-packed plans into “misadventures”. Finding ways to pivot came naturally and Stacy discovered getting into a fix was almost as fun as getting out of a fix. As a bonus, it produced both a good story and oftentimes a new friend. Stacy became involved with the first studio feature film shooting in Alaska under the newly developed tax incentive. Over a decade later, Stacy’s work in the industry has been far reaching. She’s well versed in film tax incentives and with grant funding, created a training program to expand Alaska’s crew base. Stacy has created content for unscripted television working on alls sides of TV, Commercial and Feature Film projects in Alaska and Internationally. Stacy’s work has earned her membership in the Producer’s Guild of America. Multiple projects produced with African Fixer led to a long term collaboration serving clients around the globe. She founded Kane House Films, a film service company supplying clients oftentimes with story ideas, cast, crew, payroll and easy collaboration with Alaska's resourceful people. Stacy believes the heart of every great project is a good story while solid connections are the bloodline. The heartbeat, however, is the collaborative effort of working through the production process. As a bonus, Stacy’s career path has made for good stories, good friends and loyal clients.

My passion in life is visual storytelling and I strive to craft a life that is a story worth telling. Growing up in rural Alaska I developed a love for adventure and exploration into the wilds around me. The often overwhelming beauty and intensity I encountered led me to photography as a means of sharing my experience. I enjoy finding creative angles that reveal my subjects' connection with the natural environment in an authentic and artistic style. Aerial and aviation, outdoor lifestyle and surf photography are my specialties. I offer still and motion picture production for advertising, commercial, and editorial projects. As a licensed USCG captain for Ocean Swell Ventures and proprietor of Surf Alaska, boat based surf adventures are one of my primary production platforms. I am also a camera operator for ZatzWorks offering stabilized aerial video using the Cineflex system. I live in Homer, Alaska with my wife Stephanie and our little boy Riley.
