About

You're here because you're looking for someone to take some pictures.

Perhaps you have to present a shortlist to someone. Maybe you need someone on set in 48 hours, and you’ve only just found out.  Or maybe you need to get in front of the camera for a change, and you want to check that I'm fully house-trained. (I am).

But the work isn't about me - it's about supporting your production, event or brief - from the first look press release to the company archive and all the bits in between.

Recent work includes a crew wrap shoot for Sweetpea season 2 (Belladonna Films), a poster and behind-the-scenes coverage for the comedy horror short Sold As Seen (Squid Shack Studios) and stills and behind-the-scenes for a Channel 5 documentary (Coming Up Roses/Objective Media Group) which is yet to be broadcast.

In a previous life, I spent years planning national TV campaigns, trying to get you to watch more telly. I helped shows find their audience through on-air marketing (aka trailers and continuity) while navigating the minefields of late deliveries, late schedule changes and something from the legal department kicking off at 5pm on a Friday.

I'm based in Sevenoaks and work across London and the South East of England - but am very open to travel. Really. Very open. Just ask.
