• Executive coaching to help leaders communicate confidently on camera
• Messaging development & brand refinement to sharpen key phrases & talking points
• Global creative production from concept to completion
• Proven fundraising storytelling to drive donor engagement
• Nonprofit storytelling & ministry leadership expertise
• Story-driven films that connect the heart and mind
About My Work:
I am the founder of Petersen Film & Photo LLC, based in California, with expertise that bridges both the global music industry and faith-based fundraising world. I serve as a trusted advisor to leaders needing high-end creative production, consulting, on-camera coaching, and nonprofit storytelling strategy.
I have produced documentaries and fundraising films for ministries, nonprofits, and major brands, contributing to large evangelical fundraising campaigns with Gospel Patrons, Illuminations, Jesus Film, Generous Giving, NCF, and more. We’ve seen hundreds of millions committed to gospel ministry.
