A professional Lighting Cameraman/DoP with over 20 years of experience filming a wide range of programmes for the BBC, C4, C5, Sky, Discovery and many Indie, Commercial and Corporate production companies

I have gained a reputation for being creative, instinctively getting those extra shots the director was not expecting, reliable with and an eye for producing quality images and sequences whilst remaining easy and fun to work with.

I have a wealth of experience, which I can bring to your shoot from working on a wide mix of genres from Documentaries, Natural History, Entertainment, Pop Promos, Magazine programmes, Drama and Factual programmes on location and in the studio with actors, presenters and the public at large.
