I’m Micah Byler, an Emmy-winning creative director, cinematographer, and filmmaker based in Richmond, Virginia. I lead productions that move with clarity, creative purpose, and emotional weight. From cinematic commercials to branded campaigns and narrative work, I help teams bring powerful ideas to life through bold, intentional storytelling. I tell stories that last.

What I do best is bring a clear vision to the table and guide it to the screen. My focus is on emotional precision, visual impact, and strong creative leadership. Whether it's shaping the tone of a campaign or directing a performance that resonates, I understand how to elevate a message and make it unforgettable. Every decision serves the story and the client’s bigger picture.

I lead with intention, work with precision, and care deeply about the outcome. My experience has taught me how to move fast without sacrificing quality, how to collaborate with trust, and how to create work that connects.

Let’s make something great.

Client Reviews

Micah was great to work with. He understood our vision and efficiently turned it into action. He was well organized, took care of all the details (speaking from experience, there’s a LOT of details with video), and was incredibly professional throughout production. Shooting went smoothly and the final video fit our vision and brand perfectly.

Micah was a pleasure to work with. Coming up with the first commercial for my company, I thought would be a daunting task. Micah helped bring my idea to life and made me feel comfortable enough to actually participate in the project. I’d recommend Micah to anyone looking to complete a marketing project!

Central Virginia Waste Management Authority (CVWMA) had the pleasure of working with Micah Byler on several recycling education commercials. A true creative genius, Micah used humor as message about recycling contamination. His “Oops!” commercial won 2019 Best Commercial by the Virginia Association of Broadcasters. “Think Twice!” is the most recent commercial we worked with Micah on. He continually raises the bar with his talents. We are most fortunate to work with him.

Nancy W. Drumheller - Public Affairs Manager at CVWMA

Micah’s work is extraordinary! His vision and attention to detail is unmatched. I would highly recommend Micah. I felt heard in the our first conversation to discuss what we were going for and in the end he executed perfectly. Definitely delivered above my level of expectation. Having worked with many television stations and having many videos of creative content made, I can certainly say with confidence that Micah produces superior quality. Thank you Micah! Fred Astaire Dance Studio Richmond is very grateful for your hard work and talent.

I have been in the production industry for 30 years and Micah Byler is one of the most professional, visionary, and fun videographers I have had the pleasure to work with. Micah has the unique ability to actively listen to what client wants and needs and discern between the two during production. He buys into the goal of the project and looks for creative ways to reach the desired deliverable that the client may not have thought of. Micah shares my passion for perfection and will go to any length to the shot, from reshooting a scene to hanging from a tree with a reflector to get the lighting just right, he is going to take great care during production. Let’s be honest though, post production is where the magic happens and Micah’s talents shine with exceptional editing techniques. He is an absolute blast to work with and I look forward to our next project!
