Wildlife & Documentary 

INTRODUCTION

Hi there!

​
I am freelance wildlife and documentary DOP based in New Zealand working primarily in Africa. I have worked in a wide variety of remote locations around the world. 

I work primarily filming wildlife where my field skills, photographic eye and understanding of story and character are key. I also enjoy working on sync shoots with presenters and contributors.  

I have a range of credits including BBC, Discovery, National Geographic, ITV, Channel 5, amongst others. In some productions I've also ended up in front of the camera.

I own and operate my own 4K Raw shooting kit and film vehicle. In between TV work I make myself available for selected short film and commercial work. I hold both a New Zealand and South African passport. 

If you need help with your next project please get in touch.
