Awards & press

On a shoot

I self-shoot and own all my own kit, from camera and lenses to lighting and sound. I turn up ready to work, which keeps a production simple and cost-effective.

01

Observational shooting

I shoot observationally, working quietly so people relax and forget the camera is there. I've spent years filming on ambulances, in schools and in family homes, often with sensitive access.

02

Lighting for interviews

I light and shoot interviews myself, with a natural look rather than something that feels staged. People settle quickly in front of the camera.

03

Sound

I record my own sound on the shoot, using radio mics, a boom and a mixer. That means clean dialogue in the edit without booking a separate recordist.

04

Gimbal work on the Ronin 4D

I shoot moving shots on a DJI Ronin 4D, from walk-and-talks to follows and reveals. It's a full cinema camera, so the picture stays stable and sharp.

05

Drone operation

I fly a drone for aerials and establishing shots. It adds scale to a sequence without the cost of a second unit.

06

Flexible, ready to travel

I'm happy to travel, at short notice if needed, in the UK or abroad. I bring my own kit, so I'm self-sufficient wherever the shoot is.

Tools

I also build tools for film makers. Earwig is an on-set companion that lets you mark the moment as it happens, then carries your markers and selects straight into the edit.
