About Me.

I’m an award winning Netflix Director of Photography, and documentary filmmaker, and for the past 12 years I have sought to tell stories that matter. 

 

Working as a Director and Director of Photography I’ve travelled extensively to some of the most remote and challenging places on earth in over 25 countries, telling stories of injustice and hope. 

 

I was DP for Brave Blue World, a Netflix documentary on sustainable water solutions featuring Matt Damon, and The Final Fix, a feature-length documentary on Amazon Prime on the US opioid epidemic narrated by Ewan McGregor.

 

As well as working extensively with the NGO sector with the likes of World Vision, Medical Teams, Food for the Hungry, Compassion, and many others, I've also worked for major brands such as National Geographic and Visit USA.

 

In Haiti I’ve filmed the inception and growth of the first neonatal intensive care unit in the north of the country. I’ve documented Haiti’s first National Paralympic team following them through to London 2012 Paralympic Games.

 

In Uganda I’ve filmed stories of refugees fleeing violence & conflict in South Sudan & the DRC. I’ve filmed births and operations in refugee camps. I’ve filmed moments of unparalleled joy witnessing someone receiving their first wheelchair, and moments of hopelessness as Syrian refugees in Lebanon face another winter in makeshift shelters. 

 

I've worked alongside clients to develop content that creates change, and maximises return on their campaign and marketing initiatives. I've helped clients with creative concepts for marketing campaigns, storyboards, social strategy, as well as overseeing production and budgeting.

 

I am well versed in working in extremely fragile and sensitive contexts. I’ve sought to make films that matter, to amplify the voices of poor and marginalised, to expose injustice. I believe one of my greatest strengths is connecting with people. Allowing them to tell their own stories, and affording them dignity and hope.
