I shoot

I am a Los Angeles-based self-shooting director working across branded content, social advertising, broadcast, factual, corporate and cultural projects.

I shoot and direct efficient, story-led work with a small footprint when a project needs speed, flexibility and a strong creative eye. I am experienced with RED, Canon cinema cameras, HD formats and DSLRs and comfortable working from pre-production through shoot and into post-production.

For Primal Wine, a Los Angeles natural, organic and biodynamic wine company, I created a series of short, visually distinctive social ads designed for fast, mobile-first viewing.

I bring broadcast-level production discipline to smaller-scale shoots: finding the visual hook, working efficiently with talent and locations, capturing the material needed for multiple formats, and creating content that remains clear and engaging without requiring a large crew or budget.

For Volta, I worked on a short-form social advertising project designed to communicate a brand message quickly and visually.

My work includes feature and short drama, broadcast television, interviews, documentaries, corporate communications and films for non-profit organisations. I adapt the approach to the scale of the job—whether that means directing a staged scene, working one-to-one with a contributor, or capturing fast-turnaround material for a campaign.

Here I am shooting an interview with Chuck D of Public Enemy for a feature documentary on the history of rap.

And here I am directing a dramatic scene with acting students on the Universal Studios backlot.

I shoot with a filmmaker’s sense of story and a producer’s awareness of time, budget and deliverables—creating strong footage that can work across social, web, broadcast and campaign environments.
