About 615 Focused

Company Values

UPLIFT EACH OTHER

I actively support and elevate emerging artists and bands playing in Nashville, collaborating with fellow media creatives and local businesses who share the same mission.

KEEP IT ACCESSIBLE

Great visuals shouldn’t break the bank. I understand how quickly media costs can pile up, so I aim to keep things affordable, flexible, and transparent for all musicians.

CAPTURE AUTHENTICITY

I approach each project with honesty, aiming to capture the realness of the moment. Before a planned shoot, we’ll talk about your story and what drives it, so the visuals reflect your truth.

CREATE CONNECTION

I’m here to connect with artists, creatives, and like-minded folks who believe in meaningful work. Together, we can create, collaborate, and lift each other up along the way.

Where it began…

Hi, I’m Morgan, the founder of 615 Focused, a Nashville-based media company. What started as a simple creative outlet quickly became something much bigger. I am not a musician, but I have a deep appreciation for the arts and truly love the role I get to play within Nashville’s live music community. This work has introduced me to so many incredible artists, musicians, and friends, and that connection is what keeps me inspired.

I’m originally from central Connecticut and moved to Nashville to study at Belmont University. After being drawn into the city’s live music scene, I picked up a cheap camera on a whim and brought it to my first show in early 2024, not knowing a single thing about what I was doing. I kept showing up, learning as I went, and investing in better gear. Since then, 615 Focused has grown from those early moments and exists because of the artists and community who welcomed me in.

All of the goals and aspirations I have for the company stemmed from the pain points and culture of the industry for rising artists, especially those local to Nashville. Investments are costly, and pay structures are low. Networking and community are everything. Finding your audience and booking gigs can be time consuming, and often, those who seem supportive, don’t attend shows. These complaints laid the foundation 615 Focused was built upon.
