Biography

IMG_3690.jpg

Hi!  I'm Stephen Joseph Magiera. 

 

I am currently based out of Los Angeles, CA. 


I am a director of photography, editor, and photographer and I create high-quality video work and take great care in my productions. My main focus is shooting short films and features, but beyond that, I do freelance for my personally founded company, "Total Form Productions". Outside of major work, I shoot adventure photography, videography, and I also create music!  Basically anything my heart desires as a hobby and past time.  I also take headshots and shoot acting reels.  So contact me for any business inquiries and resumé requests.  So now, if you’ve read this far, go enjoy my work!
