A driven Freelance Director of Photography and Media Production Specialist with 20 years industry experience.

Welcome to my page; I am a freelance Director of Photography (DoP) based in Yorkshire, operating throughout the UK and overseas. I have 12 years of experience in the industry and since finishing my masters degree in 2010, what was a part time job (and hobby) formed into a career, as I worked my way up through the racks of the camera department. Now I work as a Director of Photography with

a real passion for cinematography and storytelling, working on a range of productions including fiction, documentary, promos and corporate films. I personally take pride in my kit, designed to provide a bespoke service and shooting package to productions, details of which can be found on my website. Further, if your production requires additional equipment I have great relationships with local rental houses to ensure we have everything required. In 2016 I was selected to be part of BAFTA Crew, a professional network and masterclass programme, designed to connect emerging ‘below the line’ talent to BAFTA-winners and nominees. Why not browse around my site, check out my portfolio and reels, and if you like what you see… why not get in touch!

A busy weekend working at the NCBF Festival UK video directing all the performances in Warwick Hall at Warwick School - Filming for Next Step Films creating on demand content for NXTOD - we used a simple 3 camera setup including my Sony FS7, A7IV and a Canon PTZ camera which I could control. Thanks to Olivia Wild for getting some photos of me at the mixing desk!
