About

Award-winning independent film-maker based in Barcelona, and still working often in London.

I have over 10 years experience in the industry in various on-set roles, mostly as a gaffer. I now receive clients as a Director or Cinematographer. I can work in both the UK and Spain, and so am also available as a fixer if you are looking to shoot here.

Clients have been impressed by my technical side and ability to plan for and bring together all the different departments on set; while making my own award-winning films and participating in labs Doklab Navarra and Screen Cornwall’s New Writer’s Network has given me the skills to tell a good story.

Kit: Sony FX6 and accessories, Doc lighting setup

I work on projects big and small, so please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Co-founder of Awevo Films with James Chegwyn
Wow. I’m genuinely impressed. Slick without being corporate. Genuine without being worthy or cutesy. Some of the camera work reminds me of American indie filmmaking.
