Curious Pixel is a documentary film and photography company that specializes in producing authentic human stories.
Stories shape us, inspire us, and evoke the emotional state that binds us. When we look to relate and confide in one another, we look to share in story.
At Curious Pixel we uncover and communicate the true “why” behind the stories you want to tell — creating connections that transcend platforms and directly engage your audience.
Our Background →{{ w.blurb }}
Stories have a way of cutting through the noise and connecting with the heart. We work with clients who understand what storytelling means to their identity — organizations looking to build meaningful connections through truth and authenticity, not just sell a product.
{{ activeSectorBody }}
From conception to final delivery, our team oversees the entire creative arc — so every project is shaped with intention, integrity, and emotional clarity.
That approach comes out of decades of photojournalism: watching real events unfold in front of the camera and being ready for the moment that actually matters. It takes experience, rapport, and a sense for the story on the ground.

Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Steve Hebert shooting Give Me Sight
Steve took over the helm of Curious Pixel in 2013. His background as a photojournalist and filmmaker is what drives the company's focus on human stories. He grew up in Kansas and has reported on everything from farming to America's post-9/11 wars.
Over twenty years of professional work for newspapers and magazines including ProPublica, Time, The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, The Boston Globe, and The Wall Street Journal. He is one of the only photojournalists granted access to embed with U.S. Army Green Berets in Afghanistan, Iraq, Colombia, and the Philippines.
He co-produced the hour-long documentary Give Me Sight, awarded Best Documentary Feature at the Oregon International Film Awards. His work has always sought to lift the voices of those not heard, and to bring viewers to places they may never go.
