About

I’m a good humoured, unflappable, multi award-winning DoP/self-shooting Director with a track record in delivering the very best creative material from remote and challenging locations. I work across a range of genres including current affairs, documentary, drama and commercials, as well as blue-chip natural history. My shooting specialisations include aerial, stabilised and wildlife filming - I helped pioneer stabilised aerial filming in the Antarctic for the original Planet Earth and Frozen Planet series, and have recently developed new techniques for stabilised natural history filming from boats.

 I hold Hostile Environments, Marine Personal Survival, Helicopter Underwater Escape, & Remote Area First Aid certificates. Plus, I hold a US I-Visa, work permits for Australia and China, and an Enhanced DBS certificate. If required, I can provide my own Arri camera rig, Zeiss lenses, an Arri SRH360 stabilised remote gimbal, MoCo unit, sliders, lights, sound kit and a Mavic 3 Cine drone.
