Adam Asdel is an Emmy-winning director of photography with ten years shooting corporate documentary and commercial work.
Adam is a director of photography based in the San Francisco Bay Area, with ten years and an Emmy behind him. He came up in commercial and corporate work, the worlds where the camera has to sell something and tell the truth at the same time.
His specialty is making people and brands look the way they want to be seen. High-end cinematic visuals, clean lighting, and framing that carries the storytelling so the script doesn't have to. Whether it's a founder in an interview chair or a product in a commercial, he shoots it like it matters.
Ten years as a director of photography, with an Emmy to show for it. Adam works out of the San Francisco Bay Area and specializes in corporate documentary and commercial cinematography.
His range covers brand films, TV commercials, founder and executive interviews, and event coverage, all shot to a high-end cinematic standard. He's lensed campaigns for major national brands across tech, consumer, and corporate, with work that's reached millions of viewers.
His strength is the frame. He lights for mood, shoots for story, and keeps a set calm enough that the people in front of the camera forget it's there.
