Studio
At 24 frames per second or in one decisive moment, we make stories that move.
Premium creative doesn’t have to be complicated. At Halski Studio, we combine agency-level thinking with high-end production capabilities to help brands tell their stories. Founded by an advertising creative and a strategic storyteller, we bring senior-level expertise to every phase of your project.
Led by Mark Halski (Photographer, Editor, CD) and Meg Halski (Producer, Director), we offer something unique: direct partnership from concept through delivery. No handoffs. No layers. Just clear vision and solid execution.
Our sweet spot? Helping brands find their visual voice through compelling photography and film. From capturing adventure athletes in remote locations to crafting product stories that engage, we bring authentic moments to life. Our deep understanding of both creative strategy and production means we can scale solutions for any brand – whether you’re a startup ready to make your mark or a global company looking for a fresh perspective.
We take on select projects where we can make a genuine impact. Our clients range from global brands like Hydro Flask and Klipsch to craft makers like Remus Bourbon to innovative startups like Better Life. We also partner with agencies, athletes, and causes we believe in, bringing strategic thinking and premium production to every story we tell.
When you work with Halski Studio, you get the best of both worlds: big agency experience with boutique studio attention. Every project. Every time.

Director / Writer / ProducerShe slays at Scrabble.
Also, Meg is an award-winning commercial and documentary director, writer and producer and has directed teams for over 17 years.
Formally trained as a filmmaker, Meg got her start as a writer, photographer and independent, guerrilla-style filmmaker. She worked in public relations and media consulting for over ten years, directing teams toward powerful messaging and measurable outcomes.
She strives for authentic stories, relatable characters, and sculpted scenes that enable powerful visual experiences and incite a call to action from the audience.
She is known for her intense creativity, direct communication and innate ability to navigate toward the bottom line on time.
Meg has worked with clients such as AT&T, Weissman, The Hartford, Post Cereals, CEDIA, and Ameren to name a few.
Meg is both an incredibly gifted director, and the hardest- and smartest-working producer I've had the pleasure to work with. So rare to find that combination of work ethic and mature talent in one person. North has asked Meg to do it all, from running entire shoots on her own, to solving trickly production logistics, to directing and crafting the narrative, to landing the elusive big creative idea. Meg delivers every time. And she has a knack for surprising you and exceeding expectations. She's also a wonderful person, friend, parent, and art-lover, all of which count the most. There's nobody I'd recommend more to create visual and story magic.Mark RayCo-Founder, Chief Creative Officer, NORTH

Motion & Still Photographer / Editor / CreativeI am a cinematographer, photographer, editor, art director and producer. I am an accomplished creative professional with three decades of multi-faceted experience in advertising, branding and video and photography production that includes 13 years of running my own production company, Halski Studio, serving ad agencies and clients of all sizes from global brands to local startups.
I love working with creative teams and leading productions. Peers and clients frequently commend my approach as warm, collaborative and profoundly dedicated.
At Halski Studio I’ve created and produced branded videos and photography for clients such as Hydro Flask, Klipsch Audio, Smoothie King, The Hartford and Wilderton. In addition to branded content, I make original narrative and documentary films with wife and partner at Halski Studio, Meg Halski, who is a writer, director, and executive producer.
Mark is an amazing photographer and brand-builder. The guy is smart, passionate and finds a way to make something special out of everything he works on. Teaming with Mark is as creatively-satisfying an experience as you could ask for.Joe LeahyPartner and CCO, HLK

After hiring countless agencies, Mark and Halski Studio rose to the occasion as a boutique agency that delivers on their commitments and works hard to exceed expectations. Mark’s personal talents as a photographer are iconic. I have now hired Mark at three different organizations, that’s how much I think of Mark and Halski Studio.Seth BurgettEntrepreneur and Board Member, yurbuds Sport Earphones
Halski Studio are gifted creative partners with a rare combination of vision, and know how. I hired Halski Studio to produce our Weissman showcase video in 2013 and have continued to do so every year since. Our work together elevated our brand to heights I never imagined we could attain… Their enthusiasm and willingness to take chances is not only seen in the final product but has a positive influence on our entire team. If you get the chance to work with Halski Studio jump on it. I can’t wait to work with them again!Michael GardnerCreative Director, Weissman Designs for Dance
I can’t express enough how happy we at CEDIA have been with the projects Halski Studio have done for us. Beautifully shot, brilliantly edited, and always completed on-time and well within budget, their work is second to none. There’s another element to what they do, though: The Halski crew has the unique talent to make subjects who aren’t used to on-camera appearances feel at ease. They are as kind and patient as they are professional. Simply put, the process is as stellar as the results when team Halski is involved.Ed WenckContent Director, CEDIA
