INTRODUCTION

Hi there!
I am freelance wildlife and documentary Cameraman/DOP based working primarily in Africa. I have worked in a wide variety of remote locations around the world. I have a strong sense of story and enjoy working with presenters and contributors. I can turn my hand to a range of tasks including conceptualization, research, logistics, filming and workflow. I have a range of credits including BBC, Discovery Channel, National Geographic, ITV, Channel 5 amongst others. In some of my more recent productions I've also ended up in front of the camera. 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. |
