With over 25 years of experience as a Director of Photography, I have developed an extensive and thorough knowledge of equipment and techniques, applying these to a wide and varied array of productions.

Projects include feature films and short films - many of which have screened internationally, earned multiple awards and received BAFTA nominations. My work in drama has allowed me to craft emotionally resonant, cinematic visuals that support the director and serve the story to best effect.

My body of work also encompasses commercials, promos, social campaigns and documentaries, often involving combinations of many techniques and shooting styles. Stills photographic experience also includes shooting large format film and digital images for press, books and national billboard poster campaigns.

As Director of Photography, my experience includes shooting with all types of film and digital cameras, operating, lighting, motion control, high-speed, animation, timelapse, miniatures, macro, black and white, pyrotechnics, prosthetics, puppetry, animals, children, food, packshots, liquids, beauty, green/bluescreen and VFX.

I regard myself as a very adaptable cinematographer and can apply my abilities across genres. I am equally at home shooting a large drama or a small tabletop set. I very much enjoy challenging projects and creative collaborations with crew and directors. It is especially rewarding to overcome technical challenges to achieve the best photographic and artistic solution to complement the director’s vision.
