my name is Dylan Elm, With more than a decade of experience in videography and photography, I come from a lineage deeply rooted in the media industry. My grandfather was one of the first to open the doors of storytelling through visual media, and my father carried that torch forward—passing down not only technical skills but also a passion for capturing life in motion. Growing up in South Texas, I was surrounded by this creative energy, and it fueled my early interest in cameras, editing, and the art of framing a story through visuals.

Seeking to broaden my opportunities and push my creativity further, I moved to Austin, Texas, where the thriving culture and growing media scene offered the perfect backdrop for my craft. During my journey, I made the decision to step away for five years to work in construction, an industry that challenged me in new ways and taught me invaluable lessons in precision, leadership, and endurance. While different from media, that chapter gave me fresh perspectives and reinforced my dedication to hard work and creativity in all forms.

Now, I am ready to return to my roots with a renewed passion and a sharper vision. My goal is to combine the legacy of my family’s media background with my own modern approach—merging cinematic quality, technical expertise, and cultural storytelling. Every project I take on, whether videography or photography, is an opportunity to craft visuals that resonate, inspire, and leave a lasting impression.
