About Us
I’m proud to be a female business owner and even prouder to collaborate with a talented network of video pros in the Pacific Northwest. It takes a village to create stunning visual work, and I couldn’t do it without the skills & hard work of my colleagues.
Meet the Lightning Creative partners below!

Megan Rayo
Owner
I’m Megan Rayo, RAYO meaning LIGHTNING in Spanish, and I’m the proud owner of Lightning Creative.
Lightning Creative began as a way to capture this fascinating world and the people who inhabit it. I believe cameras are capable of telling the most compelling stories, and I can’t wait to hear yours.
At Lightning Creative, we join with our clients to understand their ideas and bring them to life. We make videos & photos to elevate your brand, deliver your message, and make an impression.

Cody Lewis
Cinematography
Cody comes from the Emerald City of Seattle, but he’s far from green when it comes to filmmaking! A graduate of the film program at University of Colorado, Boulder, Cody has been making films professionally for over a decade, and he owns his own production company, Freebuilt Films. Fun fact: Cody once trained to be in the Junior Olympics for weightlifting!

Marc Rotse
Senior Cinematography
Otherwise known as, the “Adam Levine of Australia,” this is Marc Rotse. He looks great in tuxes, but if you haven’t seen him in a speedo, you’re missing out. Marc is the crazy-talented lead cinematographer and owner of Portland wedding film company, Moving Pictures. For commercial work, he runs Lightbox Filmworks. Check out his stuff––it’s really good!
Jason Thomas

Sarah Jensen

Donny Mays
Photography
If you’ve never met anyone from Kentucky, you should meet Donny Mays. Photography is his game, but you can also find him at the bowling alley rolling turkeys and taking names.
Donny specializes in elopement photography so if you’re a runaway romantic, this is the guy to capture you

Jed Hamilton
Production Assistant
Jed offers a creative eye and gritty work ethic to every project he encounters. When he’s not assisting on Lightning Creative shoots or planning social media campaigns, you’ll most likely spot him playing live music around town for his punk band named GUNK 🤘
Jed embodies the heart of Lightning Creative with his innovative ideas, professionalism, and go-getter attitude. We also dig his black nail polish.
