ENDSMITH CREATIVE

When I moved to California from Ohio, Cliff was one of the first people I connected with. Over the years, we’ve collaborated on countless projects, and he’s become not just a close friend but one of my most trusted creative partners. In 2022, we decided to make it official and launched Endsmith to take on photo and video projects in a more structured way.

One of our first projects together was inspired by a dream — or at least part of a dream — that I had. The idea was to follow a wandering hero as he set up his own golf course in the middle of the desert. It was a wild concept, but we dove in headfirst. We managed to film all the footage for this short film in just about three hours, and honestly, it’s still one of my favorite things we’ve created. There’s something magical about how it all came together so quickly and effortlessly, a testament to the creative chemistry Cliff and I share.
