Meanwhile, another documentary I worked on, […]

Dogtown is the best hot dog place in Rochester, and I’m not just saying that because my friend Chris Nakis is co-owner! Chris is also a producer, and he’s currently doing a documentary about his two main interests: photography and bow-hunting. They have more in common than you’d think! For the doc, which also touches […]
