Ashley Snarski
Technical Account Manager
Joined 9/2022
Ashley began her career like many others in the industry. After art school, she started freelancing as an assistant for some of the leading food and advertising photographers in Chicago. Running the production schedules for these studios, she found a passion for managing workflows and process improvements. She went on to managing several different creative production and studio teams spanning over ten years. Most recently applying process improvements within the e-commerce studio and post-production teams for one of the largest medical manufacturers and distributors.
Ashley resides in the Chicagoland area with her husband Peter and their two cats. When the weather is right you can find the two out surfing or paddle boarding on Lake Michigan. Yes, surfing on LAKE Michigan. Most days you’ll find her jamming to the tunes of The Smiths or Alkaline Trio while experimenting with some new ingredients or recipes in the kitchen. -
Kendra Malinowski
Technical Account Manager
Joined 11/2022
Kendra began her career wrangling files for historical archives and eventually landed in the world of digital asset management. She holds a masters of science of information studies degree from the University of Texas at Austin, so she gets overexcited at any mention of photo metadata and taxonomies.
Most recently she has been helping companies set up DAMs, PIMs and enterprise studio management systems, helping to solve process problems one integration at a time.
Originally from the Midwest, Kendra now lives in San Diego with her fiancé and their two feuding cats.
In her spare time, she enjoys gardening and is playing tree tetris to see how many tropical fruit trees she can plant in her small backyard. She loves to travel and enjoys a good night out dancing the tango.

Tammy Samisch
Technical Account Manager
Joined 9/2022
Tammy is a true St. Louis, MO native who bleeds Blue, cheers for the Cards, and enjoys the delicacy of toasted ravioli.
She has two kids, Maggie and Hank, with her husband Chris – with whom she went to high school (tell me you’re from STL without telling me you’re from STL). She looks forward to annual camping and float trips with friends and family. She also enjoys watching “good” and “bad” television with her dogs, Maisel and Twyla (yes, named after the show(s) IYKYK).
Tammy’s career in marketing has spanned a wide array of products from beer to cable providers, dancewear, and teddy bears. But she found her true passion in marketing operations helping creative teams build more efficient and streamlined production processes. She loves to solve a good process puzzle and won’t let anyone fall into the trap of “we’ve always done it that way.”

Joe Kimani
Client Support Manager
Joined 11/2021
Joe is a Kenyan-born chess lover who enjoys the genius in a bad pun. When he is not making bad jokes or reading books by Arthur Conan Doyle, he loves taking his road bike out or doing a 10k run in the morning. He invests his time learning about technology trends, python programming, and all things ShotFlow.
Previously he worked as a Major Incident Manager and put out fires that could have spelled doom for various multinational companies. So he is just a slightly better version of superman.
He is currently living in Poznan, Poland.

Sean Newby
Senior Backend Developer
Joined 4/2017
Sean grew up cavorting in the vast forests of Canada with his pet moose cub, Biscuit. They had many adventures together, including learning to play hockey on a perpetually frozen lake, building computers out of sticks, and hacking into the US election system.
As the Canadian who ensures everything is actually working, Sean has no time to write pithy bio entries, rather he spends his spare time making snarky comments about Americans and getting hit in the head with pucks.
There are persist rumors that Sean is building a fortress of solitude inside a dormant volcano somewhere in Central America, but those claims remain unsubstantiated as of this writing.

Ben Eppes
VP of Client Success
Joined 9/2022
Ben started his photo journey when he quit his desk job, picked up part time gigs at Apple and Starbucks, and proceeded to knock on doors of local photographers asking to be let in. Things got out of hand, and one day Ben found himself managing an equipment room at an e-comm photo studio and building a digital workflow to wrangle a massive multitude of digital assets. And he liked it. Ever since, he’s been sculpting and polishing high-volume creative content workflows in his waking hours, and sometimes in his sleep.
A proud North Carolinian, Ben has found life in the city suits him, first in New York, and now Los Angeles with his partner Gemma. If he’s not hunting tacos or in his studio making strange sounds with synthesizers, he’s probably screaming his lungs out cheering for his beloved Panthers, Hornets, or Dodgers.

Cvet Kalchev
VP of Development & QA
Joined 5/2019
Cvet is from Bulgaria and totally rocks. He enjoys pwning some n00bs (as the kids would say) in his sexy black and yellow gaming chair. He occasionally finds time to actually write some code as well, but that’s just to keep the lights on… until his solar power grid (currently under construction) comes on-line. Then he will rule the world, and you will beg him for the precious “juice” as you wander the forbidden wastelands in tattered punk accouterment.

Eric Fulmer
CEO/Founder
Joined 4/2015
Eric is one of the world’s foremost experts in Brand Content Production. He has been a pioneer in digital photography and digital asset workflow since the early 1990s, when he joined Fuji’s fledgling Digital Imaging Division. Later, Eric worked with many leading photography studios to improve their capture and image processing workflows. Prior to founding ShotFlow, he was part of the technology team at one of the world’s largest studio production companies, implementing technology solutions for leading apparel and retail brands.
Eric has six children ranging in age from adults to eight year-old twins, which keep him and his long-suffering wife Erika very busy (she not only endured 30+ years of ‘Eric & Erika’ comments, she has put up with her husband babbling to himself about nothing but studio process for a full decade). They live on a “hobby farm” in Georgia with sheep, cats, and dogs. He is a voracious reader and political junkie during his rare moments of spare time.
Careers
ShotFlow solves the complexities of visual content creation for the world’s best-known retail and apparel brands. A product page full of beautiful images and videos doesn’t just happen by magic, it takes whole teams of studio production professionals to create visually compelling content. ShotFlow is a workflow tool managing and accelerating the complex production processes behind the scenes. There are no available positions at the moment.
