Hobbyist with decent gear. Here to film your events, YouTube and social clips, and selling prints you might actually hang. Cheap rates, no ego. Well, maybe a little.

I'm Curt—@dammitcurt, full-time unemployed YouTuber, and budget event photographer. I shoot and edit all my own videos (because I'm too broke to hire anyone), and I've got the gear and skills to make your stuff look legitimately good without charging truckloads of cash. Events that don't look like stock photos. Parties that actually seem fun. Reels that stop the scroll. And yeah, I sell prints of my random pretty pictures because I need the cash. No fluff, no upselling, just solid work at "I can't believe that's the price" rates.
Need someone to capture your thing without hovering like a creepy uncle or charging an arm and both legs? I do events—parties, corporate nonsense, family stuff—whatever. Clean shots, real moments, zero cheese. unless you specifically request cheese, but that'll cost extra
I stay out of the way but get the good stuff with a small arsenal of decent camera gear, agile movements, and that can-do attitude that says, "I really need to make rent this month."
I get it, we're all broke, so let's talk costs and we'll work it out.
Previous professional work.
Filmed with an iPhone and edited while traveling. Imagine what I could do for you with a real camera and a desk.
Look, I live this chaos—filming and editing my own YouTube channel keeps me sharp—and full disclosure: I used to be a legit professional editor and motion designer back in the day. (Yes, actual paycheck stubs and everything.) I didn't just watch YouTube tutorials and call it a career.So yeah, I know what I'm doing.
Perfect for YouTube newbies, Reels/TikTok junkies, or anyone chasing pro vibes on a ramen-noodle budget.Tell me your wild idea. I'll tell you if it's dumb (gently), then make it way better anyway.
Got an event? Need video help? Want to complain about my rates being too low and bringing the industry down? Tell me what's up—dates, vibe, budget, wild ideas. I'll respond the only way I know how: honestly and at my convenience.
I'll reply as soon as I finish this sandwich.
