About me

I am a Director of Photography in Film and TV. I shoot Commercials, Music Videos, TV series, Documentaries, Branded Content, and News. I have been shooting scripted and unscripted content for 17 years. I specialize in Digital content for the web!! I have Directed and Produced Many spots through our company, MXTP AGENCY. We are well set-up to hire local crews to staff your production. Our roster includes; Audio Location recordists, DMT's, DOP's, Camera OP's, Grips, Gaffers and PA's. Whatever you need, just ask!
To date, I have shot in over 30 countries in all conditions. I am used to large crews and very small crews. I often do my own Lighting, Audio, and Data Management but the scaleability of the team is key to a great outcome.
