About Me
Hey, I’m Chris Dumas — a professional, videographer, producer, director, editor, and photographer with over 15 years of experience capturing people, places, and moments all across the United States. I’ve worked behind the scenes for other companies for most of my career, shooting everything from portraits to events and creative projects.
Let’s create something amazing together.
I produced, directed, interviewed, and edited the whole video for ManSmile, which is Dr. Thomas Connelly's awesome cosmetic dentistry brand out in Beverly Hills. I created compelling interviews with Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery and actor/bodybuilder Mike O’Hearn, who both shared their incredible smile transformations thanks to ManSmile. From the first idea to the final cut, I put together a really clean, high-quality video that totally shows off the confidence and amazing results you get from ManSmile.
Dr. Thomas Connelly
I produced, directed, and edited this video for celebrity cosmetic dentist Dr. Thomas Connelly in Beverly Hills, California. The shoot features exclusive interviews with Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery and actor/bodybuilder Mike O’Hearn, sharing their experiences with Dr. Connelly’s signature smile transformations. I handled everything from concept to final edit, capturing authentic moments and delivering a polished, high-quality video that highlights the power of a great smile.
The Smile Centré
I produced and edited this brand story for Dr. Jen Kirwan and The Smile Centré in historic Leavenworth, Kansas. The video weaves together heartfelt testimonials from a diverse group of patients who share their life-changing experiences—from overcoming dental anxiety to finding relief from sleep apnea and gaining confidence through advanced implant dentistry.
As the producer and editor, I managed the project from pre-production planning to the final cut, focusing on capturing the warm, patient-first atmosphere of the practice while showcasing their state-of-the-art technology. The result is a compelling and authentic video that establishes The Smile Centré as a destination for compassionate, high-tech dental care.
NIKS Med Spa
I produced, directed, shot, and edited this comprehensive brand story for NIKS Medical Spa, a boutique practice founded by two sisters in the beautiful coastal town of Del Mar, California. My goal was to create a video that captured their unique identity: the clinical expertise of two Physician Assistants combined with a warm, personalized, and luxurious client experience.
I handled the entire production, from concept development and storyboarding to the final edit. As the cinematographer, I blended sweeping aerial shots of the Del Mar coastline with intimate, natural-light interviews and detailed close-ups of their precise aesthetic treatments. As the director, I guided the co-founders and their real patients to share genuine stories, fostering an atmosphere of trust and authenticity on camera. In post-production, I seamlessly wove these elements together to create a polished and compelling narrative that not only showcases their services but also establishes NIKS as a premier, trustworthy destination for aesthetic care.
Terrace Creek Dental Care
I produced, directed, and edited this brand story for Terrace Creek Dental Care near Seattle. I crafted a narrative that builds trust by weaving genuine patient testimonials with cinematic visuals of the practice's advanced technology. My direction focused on capturing authentic stories that address common dental fears, highlighting the team's compassionate, patient-focused approach and establishing them as a premier dental provider.
The Wonderful Dentist Podcast
As the producer and editor for 'The Wonderful Dentist Podcast' series, I craft each episode to deliver compelling stories and insightful conversations. For instance, in 'The Wonderful Dentist Podcast: Episode 1,' I brought to life the unique journey of our first guest, Dr. Paco Major. I shaped the discussion with hosts Laura Maly and Michael Anderson, diving deep into Dr. Major's dental career—from building a successful practice to facing significant challenges like an FBI insurance fraud case. My aim is always to deliver an authentic and inspiring listening experience that resonates with our audience.
