About.
I am a documentary filmmaker working across sport, branded and long-form content.
I specialise in building clear, watchable stories from real-world filming. I am usually brought in when a project needs more than just good shots. When it needs structure, narrative direction, and confidence that the edit will work.
I have spent over a decade working across YouTube and broadcast, shooting and shaping thousands of films.
That experience means I think about story, pacing and audience from the very start, not as an afterthought in the edit.
​
I am often hired as a shooting producer / director, trusted to plan efficiently, adapt on the ground, and make editorial decisions while filming.
I am comfortable leading contributors, adjusting approach to help people relax on camera, and knowing which storylines to follow and which to drop.
​
Most of my work happens before and during filming. Shaping a plan, breaking a story into clear sections, and making sure we come back with the footage needed to tell it cleanly.
The result is an easier edit, less waste, and a stronger film.
If a project has ambition but limited time, budget or clarity, that is usually where I am most useful.
