Paisley Sutton

DIRECTOR + PRODUCER

Storytelling has always been important to me. Stories can make the world feel huge or microscopic, they can bridge communities closer together or tear them apart. Stories hold culture, history, and capture a moment or an emotion in time. Whether your medium is a video, a photo, a runway, or an Instagram post I can help you tell your story.
