About me
I am a BAFTA short listed Director of Photography, who has worked in the industry as a DOP for over 17 years.My experience as a Director of Photography has included working with the UK Film, and the Film Council Triangle Fund to work with emerging filmmakers on their first short films, or low budget feature films. I have made features in both the UK and Bangladesh and award winning shorts.
My work in broadcast recently has focused on commercial and promo work for companies such as the BBC, Channel 4, ITV, Sky, and Discovery. This work has won Promax awards for various companies. I have also been working with the BBC iPlayer “New Creatives” initiative for new filmmakers with Screen South.
I have shot numerous campaigns for agencies such as Cheil, Havas, Olgvy and AVMBBDO, for clients ranging from Bacardi, Samsung, Sagrotan (Dettol), HP and Ford. These have been used both as broadcast, Content and in-house projects by these brands.
I was one of the roving feature stories crews for the 2014 FiFA World Cup in 2014, and my work was seen around the globe as part of the tournament coverage for Host Broadcast Services (Fifa). I filmed as part of a roving crew who travelled around Brazil during the competition to make documentaries for the pre game shows, I was also responsible for getting graphics shots in every stadium played for the results imagery during the competition.
The short film “Hip Hop Cafe” by Robbie Samuels, on which I was DOP, had a gala screening at during the 2017 BFI London Film Festival, and was featured in the advertising for the festival. It went on to win laurels at various film festivals, and became a Vimeo Staff Pic.
I am passionate about filmmaking and the DOP’s role in the process as a storyteller, and how this can shape an audiences understanding or connection to the film they are watching. I love to help and develop work that can tell stories, to make great work
I have worked and lived abroad, and am happy to work on various types of project, anywhere,I have shot heavily on both film and video, both in the UK and abroad, although now my focus is now mostly on digital formats with various lens options.
I would be very happy to hear from you, and to discuss any projects you have in mind.

Additional information:
I have extensive short course teaching experience, and have written and taught courses in Lighting, Camera operation, Cinematography, and courses that specialise in working with film, at institutions such as, University of Arts London (UAL), Chichester University, The London Academy, North Herts College, and Currently at the City Academy.
I am a Cineophile, car enthusiast, fascinated by history, a competition winning archer, and enjoy canoeing when the time allows, I also own two classic car's and am active in the respective clubs connected to these.
