WHAT I Do
​Artisan of light, movement, and story — from concept to final grade.
Freelance Melbourne-based Cinematographer, Director, and Post-Production Specialist offering high-end production and finishing with the precision of an artisan and the practicality of a producer.
My work bridges art and execution — cinematic craft with commercial clarity — built on four guiding principles:
​
• Craftsmanship over scale
• Experience over bureaucracy
• Cost-efficiency without compromise​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

With more than 25 years behind the lens, I’ve shot, directed, and finished projects for Madonna, Tom Jones, Backstreet Boys, HSBC, V/Line, NAB, Red Energy, Pepsi, CNN, Disney, Red Bull, the Australian Grand Prix, and many more trusted brands and global artists — spanning film, television, and digital campaigns worldwide.
My work encompasses 200+ TVCs, 150+ music videos, feature films, and numerous shorts, documentaries, and broadcast campaigns, with recent collaborations including Spin Master, Red Energy, V/Line, the AFL, and American Tourister.
As a DaVinci Resolve colourist and online finishing editor, I manage the entire image pipeline — from capture to final grade — ensuring visual consistency and polish across every project. My toolkit includes RED, Blackmagic 12K, and Sony full-frame cinema systems, along with Sony mirrorless stills packages for campaign and behind-the-scenes photography.
Each production is supported by professional Steadicam and gimbal rigs, comprehensive lighting and grip packages, and a 4×4 production truck with self-contained power and crew transport — providing complete mobility, efficiency, and creative control from set to post.
I’m also an experienced aerial cinematographer, operating a fleet of drones from heavy-lift cinema rigs to agile micro-drones, with over 150 flight hours in helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft. Fully CASA certified (RePL, AROC & REOC), I integrate ground and aerial cinematography into seamless, cinematic storytelling.
