My camera work has a strong photographic style inspired by Magnum photojournalists and reportage photography. I'm a film geek and a student of cinematic language; adding empathy, emotion, intuition, timing and movement to my compositions.

When I am not freelancing, I produce/direct documentaries and factual content for brands, agencies and production companies. I usually self shoot these projects, and work with a larger crew in a DP role when needed. My work blurs the line between observational and controlled styles of filmmaking; resulting in organic performances and cinematic production values which enhance emotions, story and connection.

My last feature documentary received a European theatrical release after success on the international festival circuit. This year I concluded production on my third feature as a first time director of photography, using the Red Scarlet-W system. I became Arri camera certified in 2019, hold a Creative Industries Safety Passport and was trained by the RAF to work in hazardous environments.

Whether it’s directing, assisting, lighting or camera work - I try to build a connection with the audience. That tingle, we all get when a moment resonates with us. Whether expressed as an adrenaline-fuelled chest-bump, a cascade of goosebumps, a barrel roar of laughter or a simple smile.

Connection is key.
