The Artist
Based in Northwest Arkansas, I approach every frame as a filmmaker would a scene — with intention, atmosphere, and narrative depth. The Obsidian Lens was born from a belief that photography and cinematography are the same craft: telling human stories through light.
Whether it's a portrait session, a wedding day, or a brand film, my work lives at the intersection of cinematic technique and authentic emotion. Dark, intentional, and deeply personal.
Let's Create TogetherKind Words
Kaleb doesn't just take photos — he creates entire worlds within a single frame. Working with him felt like stepping into a film.

Frequently Asked
The Obsidian Lens is based in Northwest Arkansas — Fayetteville, Bentonville, Rogers, Springdale, and the surrounding cities. I travel for the right project. If you're outside NWA, ask. Distance is rarely the dealbreaker people think it is.
Portraits, creative and editorial work, weddings, boudoir including nude, brand video for small and mid-sized businesses, music videos for artists and bands, and commercial cinematography. Photography and video both — I shoot the way the project asks to be shot.
Use the contact form below or email theobsidianlensnwa@gmail.com. Tell me what you're after, when you want it, and where it's happening. I'll come back with a quote and a date.
It depends on the season. Spring and fall fill up first because of weddings and brand campaigns. The earlier you reach out, the more flexibility you have on dates and scope.
Pricing is custom because every project is. A one-hour portrait sitting and a multi-day brand shoot live in completely different worlds. Email me with the brief and I'll send a quote.
No. That's the work I'm known for and the work I love most, but I shoot bright, joyful, sun-drenched images too when the project calls for it. Light is the tool, not the rule.
The eye and the cuts are mine. On larger shoots there's a small crew that handles lighting, rigging, and second-shooting. Every project still goes through me, top to bottom.
