About me
I am an experienced shooting producer/director, well versed at capturing actuality and developing a rapport with contributors, allowing them to share their story. A visual story teller, I’ve shot football documentaries, a 4 part documentary series with multiple families and youth skewed films for the likes of SBTV and BBC3. I have also made documentaries for the Imperial War Museum on the Remembrance of fallen soldiers. In the online space I’ve worked and delivered films with some of the biggest names in music for the likes of Stormzy and Novelist and work frequently with fashion brands such as Anglo-Italian and Yuzefi. I am experienced shooting on FS7, C300, and Arri Amira.
