Aaron Lumsden and Kyle Ariss of the Akuro Productions
Founder
Aaron Lumsden
I've had a deep passion for filmmaking and audio production for as long as I can remember. There's something truly magical about seeing ourselves or our creations come to life on screen, preserved in a timeless way. The opportunity to share that experience with others is what inspired me to start Akuro Productions.
My journey into production began by recording and filming content for my own band. Eager to offer this experience to others, I expanded my work to include projects for fellow musicians and businesses.
Now, after several years and hundreds of projects, I can’t imagine doing anything else.
Co-Founder
Kyle Ariss
I’ve never felt more fulfilled in any job than I do in this one. Providing clients with high-quality videography and photography is a truly unique and rewarding experience. My journey began with making quirky camping videos on YouTube, filming mostly myself, and evolved into starting a podcast that exceeded all expectations. As a kid, I was always carrying around an old VHS camcorder, eager to capture moments from behind the camera.
Now, as a husband, father of two beautiful girls, and business partner, I have a lot on my plate—but there’s always room for more! We can’t wait to give you an exceptional experience and deliver a product you’ll love.
The Story
Akuro Productions
After gaining valuable experience working with various partners, Aaron decided to carve out his own path with Akuro Productions. Akuro, which means "bad wolf," has grown at an incredible pace since its inception. As the company expanded, Aaron recognized the need for a partner and reached out to Kyle, whom he had previously been a guest on a podcast with. Impressed by Kyle’s ambition and drive to create exceptional video content, Aaron knew he would be the perfect fit—and he was right.
What started as a focus on music videos has now evolved into a diverse portfolio of video and photo content, including commercials, weddings, real estate, podcasts, advertisements, and, of course, even more music videos. At Akuro Productions, our goal is to bring your vision to life and make it a lasting reality for years to come.
