Specialization

Brand Content · Social Strategy · Photography · Video

I'm Com, a brand content producer and self-taught photographer based in Milwaukee. I build the content brands grow on, strategy, social systems, campaigns, and the photography and video that fill them.

I helped scale Unfinished Legacy from a Milwaukee idea into a global clothing brand, and helped grow its flagship store in the Third Ward into a fixture of the city. I've worked with the Brewers, the Bucks, the Milwaukee Art Museum, and lensed a campaign for a candidate running for governor.

I've spent years studying what builds brands and testing what I learn against real work, which means I show up with more than a camera. I understand the market, the audience, and how supply and demand actually move a brand forward.

I work end to end: concept, capture, delivery. The work ships polished, on brand, and on time. If it's worth shooting, I want to see it.

Brand
Strategy
& Curation

I build the content systems brands run on. Feed direction, campaign rollouts, curation, social strategy, and the photography and video that fill it. Below is my longest case study, a Milwaukee idea I helped grow into a global brand, plus the contracts I took on in 2026.

Case Study

Unfinished Legacy

8 Years  ·  Idea to Global Brand

The Problem

A Milwaukee startup brand that needed to look bigger than it was, and a flagship store that needed feet through the door.

My Role

Brand strategy, creative direction, photography, video, and both Instagram accounts, the global page and the storefront page, plus running the store itself.

What I Did

Built the content system behind every drop and campaign, shot and edited the assets, ran the calendars, and translated the online brand into a Third Ward retail experience.

2026 Contracts

Fran Hong

Personal Brand, Governor Campaign  ·  Jan–Apr 2026

The Problem

A candidate for governor who needed a personal brand people could connect with, not just a campaign that ran ads.

My Role

Creative direction, photography, and short-form video across the campaign's social presence.

What I Did

Built the content approach around the candidate's own voice, testimonials, issue-driven reels, and portrait work, and shipped it on a campaign calendar from January through April.

25-Reel Series  ·  2026

The Problem

A brand that needed consistent short-form output on a schedule, not one-off posts whenever there was budget.

My Role

Concept, direction, shooting, and edit on a contracted series.

What I Did

Delivered 25 reels end to end, scripted the series arc, shot in batches to keep the look consistent, and handed over ready-to-post cuts sized for the feed.

Editorial

Brand campaigns and editorial for the people building things in Milwaukee and beyond. Editorial is more than the product, it's how the brand looks, feels, and lives in the world.

Portraits

Whether it's a 35mm film roll on a Saturday afternoon or a controlled studio session, my goal is the same: make the person feel seen, then make a picture they're proud of.

Wedding

The quiet between vows. The arm pulling closer. A walk through the garden when no one's watching. Weddings get the same patient eye as everything else, let me document the day the way you'll want to remember it.
