Hello

For the past 18 years, I have worked in the UK freelance market, with one year in New Zealand. 80% of that work was for the BBC, with independent companies and corporates making up the rest.

From my credit list you will see I have worked on a huge variety of programmes. My approach to filming is that no project is too small or too large. Everything has its own challenges and rewards.

I pride myself on my ability to light with speed and enthusiasm to a very high standard. I can adapt quickly to any situation, working with the team or just 'getting on with it'. My handheld work is fluid and I always provide the editor with plenty of cutaways!

I have world-wide experience, having worked in most of Europe, the US, the Middle East and the South Pacific.

Despite my extensive credit list, I approach each film with the same passion I had when I first started. I always live by the motto 'You are only as good as your last job'!

I own all my kit, which I maintain and service regularly. As well as ensuring that it is in top condition, it also means that my technical knowledge is second to none.

Please do feel free to call and discuss any future filming projects you might have.

I look forward to hearing from you

Health and Safety

I have worked as a Cameraman for 17 years and have gained a competent knowledge of the changing and working environment of filming.

I carry protective eye wear, flourescent jacket, first aid kit and ear plugs on board the van. I also have a selection of ropes and harnesses for working at heights.

I completed the BBC course 'Safe Working with Cameras and Lights' on the 11th of May 2004.
