I’m a London-based lighting cameraman and camera operator with a background spanning drama, art installations, documentary, commercials and branded content. I’m drawn to projects where visual storytelling really matters — using light, composition and movement to support narrative and mood. After years working alongside directors, DOPs and creative teams, I value collaboration, problem-solving, and making spaces where good work can happen under pressure.
