About me
The opportunity to create photographs and films fascinates me. I love how we can use these images to tell stories and to connect with one another. I am experienced in photography, digital filmmaking with DSLRs and production management. My skillset includes a good understanding of post-production with stills and moving images and I have worked extensively with Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop. I have used Adobe Premiere Pro and Davinci Resolve for filmmaking work. Additionally, I have experience in Art Direction for stills and Video Direction. For smaller photoshoots, I am able to fully manage the production with a minimal team. Also, I am very happy working with a larger team and can fully assist other photographers, including in their technical with workflow. My background also includes extensive experience with the web and mobile technologies. I am able to construct websites using CMS tools such as WordPress and have a good understanding of the needs of Search Engine Optimisation and how it relates to imagery. I have a good understanding of the full production process and deliver on time and within budget.
Projects
  • The Twelve - Art in South East London
    The Twelve - Art in South East LondonTwelve was a series of public art projects showcasing artists from Centrepieces Mental Health charity. The project was sponsored by the London Borough of Bexley Council. All the art was displayed at Hall Place and grounds, a Tudor manor house in SE of London. As part of the project I was commissioned to document the art produced with digital video and produce showreels highlighting the two parts of the project. The filming and editing was a solo project by me. The films are available here.
