About me
I am a Lighting Cameraman living in London, and working globally.I bring a discreet and personal approach to filming with sensitive issues and subjects. My eye for detail and preparation help me capture emotive and powerful pictures when shooting in challenging environments.
I enjoy working with directors, self-shooting sequences and operating sound. I am adept in the use of a range of cameras and formats.
I'm a CAA certified PfCO drone pilot, and a UK Passport & US I-Visa holder. I have experience filming in various countries across the globe, along many regions of the UK. I have bases in the Midlands & North.
