About
A childhood passion for movies and for making them followed me to university where one of my films was discovered by IMAX. They requested to show it before revival screenings of Ang Lee’s “Ride With the Devil,” and this soon led to a full-time career behind the camera.
In 2008, I began working in Los Angeles as DP, editor, and colourist not just on features but shorts, commercials, and music videos too. Years later, I wrote and directed the features “Come Morning” & “The Perfect Host: A Southern Gothic Tale” then stretched my bounds to Europe then New Zealand, my adopted home since 2016.
Industry Experience
Since 2006, I’ve served in just about every position on and off a film set, from prep to post – even distribution and exhibition. However, my first love is still the camera and the light and directing them both.
Cinematographer Member of the NZ Cinematographer’s Society.
