ABOUT CIERA & ALEX

Afrolia Productions is a specialized photography and videography collaborative led by Ciera Brooks and Alexander Horn. Operating as a synchronized duo with a combined decade of experience, we master the rhythm of the stage to deliver a unified visual narrative.

Our approach is built for the scale of the Cincinnati Music Festival. We understand the delicate balance between the rigid precision of the run-of-show and the electric, spontaneous energy of the fans. We don't just capture images; we engineer a comprehensive asset library designed for immediate media impact and long-term legacy.

HOW WE PHOTOGRAPH & FILM LIVE EVENTS

We film and photograph shows from multiple perspectives to turn every performance into a story your fans can experience again and again.

WE UNDERSTAND THE ENERGY

We provide a diverse array of media-ready deliverables, ensuring your PR and social teams have the specific content needed for every platform.

The Performer "Hero" | Technical Precision

High-fidelity, tight-composition portraits captured from the media pit. We isolate the "decisive moment" to provide definitive, front-page-ready assets of the artist.

The Stadium-Scale Wide | Architectural Energy

Grand-scale perspectives that document the magnitude of Paycor Stadium, the production complexity, and the sheer volume of the CMF crowd.

Immersive Fan Connection | The Pulse of the Festival

Candid, high-energy documentation of the community, fashion, and joy that defines the CMF experience—captured authentically without disrupting the fan environment.

The "Elevated" Signature | Specialized Rigging

Utilizing our signature gimbal-on-monopod technique, we achieve "impossible" over-the-crowd angles and sweeping, crane-like motion that sets our cinematic video apart.
