R2 began his career as a gaffer working for Oscar-winning DP’s Conrad Hall and Allen Daviau until 2000 when he officially made the transition to Director of Photography himself.

As a director, he has worked for clients such as Elizabeth Arden and the prestigious Bentley and he has shot for brands such as Gucci, Ferragamo, Armani, Nike, Max Factor, Maybelline etc. — in addition to many personal and professional photography projects. R2’s work shows a singular and modern vision of aesthetic and beauty illustrated most recently by the Buscemi commercial produced by Onirim.
