Hi! I’m Isaac O’Farrell. I grew up in Uzbekistan and Oregon, then went to film school in Arizona. Currently, I live on the Oregon Coast but work in Portland, and I love to travel, especially for creative projects.

I’m a full-time freelance filmmaker with a unique blend of experience in cinematography, camera department, and specialty camera work (Ariel, Arm car, Highspeed, Cinema Robot).

Technical skills aside, I love talking with people, hearing their stories, and finding ways to highlight what makes them unique.
