About

I deliver high-impact visuals across documentaries, live news and digital videos, including branded content and social-native vertical video. I’ve filmed videos with 1M+ views on YouTube, Instagram and TikTok, and bridge the gap between traditional broadcast standards and digital-first delivery.

I bring technical precision, editorial judgement and a creative eye to every project. Because I regularly cut my own work, I shoot with the final edit in mind. And I’m always pushing the boundaries of my craft, whether that’s learning new skills or making use of cutting edge equipment.

I’ve worked across Europe, the US, Middle East and Asia, and can supply equipment scaled to your production’s needs, whether that’s a DSLR in a backpack or a cinematic multi-camera shoot.

Specialist in:
🎥-Fast-turnaround shoot/edit assignments
💡-Compact multi-camera setups that punch above their weight
🖼️-Beautifully framed PTCs and standups
📺-Creative mini-docs and packages
📱-Delivering for multiple platforms (live-to-air, mid- to long-form, social channels)
🚁-Drone filming
🛫-International filming logistics
💸-Business, economics and finance topics

Confident managing technical aspects of production from inception to delivery, with strong editorial awareness, and experience of legal and compliance responsibilities for broadcast and online distribution. Broadcast credits include Shooting Producer/Director and Shooting AP.

Career highlights include shooting interviews with heads of government and CEOs of some of the world’s biggest companies, working on taster tapes which resulted in successful commissions, and filming high speed police car chases!
