With over 20 years of experience in video production and digital storytelling, I have built a career creating premium visual content for hospitality, food, lifestyle, and luxury brands across more than 30 countries. My work has received industry recognition and awards, with a strong focus on cinematic storytelling, high-end food presentation, and engaging social-first video content.A significant part of my portfolio has involved filming upscale culinary experiences, including collaborations with Michelin-starred chefs, luxury hotels, fine dining restaurants, and premium hospitality brands. This has given me extensive experience in capturing food in a visually compelling way, from ingredient preparation and spice textures to plated dishes, cooking processes, and atmospheric dining visuals designed specifically for Instagram Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts.I have a deep understanding of how short-form content performs across modern social platforms, including pacing, hooks, lighting techniques, transitions, framing, and editing styles that increase audience retention and engagement. My approach combines cinematic production values with practical knowledge of current social media trends and algorithms to create content that is both visually refined and commercially effective.Alongside hands-on production, I have extensive experience leading creative teams, mentoring junior filmmakers and creators, and working directly with clients to develop concepts, storyboards, visual identities, and content strategies. I am confident guiding creators through every stage of production, from planning and scripting through to filming, editing, optimisation, and platform-specific delivery.Having operated my own production business for many years, I understand the importance of consistency, communication, and building a recognisable brand voice. I enjoy helping businesses refine their visual identity and translate products into engaging stories that resonate with audiences online.This opportunity strongly aligns with my background in premium food and hospitality content, and I would welcome the chance to bring my creative and mentoring experience to support the continued growth of your social media presence.
