From an early age, Alden Weinberg was captivated by the fluidity of movement, the intricacies of  space, and the boundless athleticism of the human body in motion. Raised in an artistic  household, immersed in both art and the outdoors, he was instinctively drawn to the camera as a  child, using it as a tool to capture the dynamic relationship between the human form and its  environment. At 15, his passion for photography, mechanics, and athletics converged when he  left the Northeast for an alternative high school in Mt. Hood, Oregon. Surrounded by nature, he  delved into action snow sports, particularly snowboarding, and discovered the fusion of extreme sports filmmaking with the art of emotional storytelling.

Based around the glaciers of Mt. Hood, Alden filmed, snowboarded, and traversed the Cascades,  the Rockies, and the Southern Alps of New Zealand. These formative experiences deepened his  understanding of how the human body could merge with the raw beauty of the natural world,  creating visually stunning narratives where athleticism and environment become one. With a  sharp mechanical mind, a passion for optics, and an intuitive grasp of visual composition, Alden was naturally drawn to cinematography—specifically the craft of capturing  the dynamic interplay of the human form set against nature’s grandeur. 

At Haverford College, Alden refined his approach, combining a physics degree focused on classical mechanics and waves / optics with his love for the visual arts. Alden worked in a Soft Matter physics lab where he built a device that used sound waves to levitate objects. This acoustic levitator was used to study aggregate formation within an acoustic field. After moving on from physics research he embraced his independence as a cinematographer, eager to learn by doing, and sought out opportunities to work with industry masters to further hone his craft. 

Combining his talents as both an artist and technician, Alden’s portfolio reveals a mastery of composition, light, color, and movement. His work embodies the dynamic relationship between the human body and its environment, each frame reflecting his ability to  seamlessly unite the two into a visually compelling composition.

In every endeavor, Alden blends youthful enthusiasm with the sophisticated eye of a seasoned cinematographer to create balance and beauty. His work speaks to his unwavering commitment to storytelling, his insatiable pursuit of adventure, and his remarkable ability to transform raw moments into emotionally compelling visual compositions. Each project is a testament to his unique vision—always pushing boundaries, offering fresh perspectives, and revealing the hidden beauty and harmony in every subject he touches.
