Elias got his start photographing friends’ cars and his pets in the woods of northwest Connecticut. He had a camera in his hand from an early age and, whether photo or video, has been a visual storyteller for more than 13 years.
A move to New York to attend Ithaca College gave Elias formal training in photography, cinema and journalism via a degree in documentary production. His time there would yield an award-winning short documentary, photography installations, and a position as photo editor of The Ithacan.
Elias has worked deeply in his community with organizations like the CT Department of Energy and Environmental Protection, Woodbury Ballet, Albany Berkshire Ballet, local artist guilds, and many dance organizations. Elias is always excited to travel and work with new people to help them reach their goals.
