About me
During my 25 years of experience as a Director of Photography, I have developed an extensive and thorough knowledge of equipment and techniques and applied these to a wide and varied array of productions. My shooting experience includes numerous digital and film cameras, operating, motion control, highspeed, animation, timelapse, miniatures, macro, black and white, pyrotechnics, prosthetics, puppetry, animals, children, food, packshots, liquids, beauty, green/bluescreen and VFX.
My work is often extremely technical, drawing on my experience and solid background in the photography of special effects including stop-motion, compositing and use of motion control. I have been involved with projects that utilise a combination of many shooting techniques where a full understanding of all processes and post production work-flow is essential.
I regard myself as a very adaptable DoP and am confident that my abilities can be applied across genres. My body of work encompasses feature films, short films, documentaries and over 100 commercials. I have a comprehensive knowledge of film and digital cameras in many formats and from shooting time-lapse to high-speed. My photographic experience also includes shooting large format film and digital stills for books and national bill board poster campaigns.
I very much enjoy challenging projects and creative collaborations with crew and directors. It is especially rewarding to overcome technical challenges in order to achieve the best photographic and artistic solution to complement the director's vision.
