In 2012, Hall relocated to McComb, Mississippi for a position as the staff photographer for the Enterprise Journal, where he won 25 awards during his 18 month tenure. 

Hall lived in Anchorage, Alaska from 2013 to 2017, where he worked full-time as the staff photographer for the University of Alaska Anchorage and freelanced for the Anchorage Dispatch News. During his time in the north, Hall covered everything from ice climbing to dog-sled racing to Native Alaskan ceremonies to UAA’s commencement, against one of the most breathtaking natural landscapes on Earth. 

Now located in Savannah, Georgia, Hall continues to capture both newsworthy and everyday moments in his sharp, photojournalistic style. His work has appeared in publications such as The New York Times, The New York Post, Time, Newsweek, The Financial Times, USA Today, and The Christian Science Monitor.
