About

Hi, I’m Jimmy Richards. I’m a Creative Director, Videographer, and Editor based in Baltimore, MD. I founded Bay Central Media, LLC (doing business as Jimmy Richards Media) in 2017 and specialize in producing high-impact, social-first video and photo content for brands, restaurants, non-profits, agencies, and educational institutions. I’m known for fast turnaround, storytelling visuals, lean production workflows, and polished, platform-ready delivery under tight deadlines.

I lead end-to-end productions from concept to delivery, collaborating closely with clients to translate creative goals into executable visuals. I build lasting relationships with recurring and retainer clients through consistent, reliable output, and I excel at 1–2 camera shoots, cinematic storytelling, lighting, sound, and rapid post-production for social and digital platforms.
