I'm a London-based director and DOP with over 20 years producing campaign films, explainer videos, event coverage, and brand content. Clients span McDonald's, GSK, and Vauxhall on the corporate side, and the World Health Organization, Humane World for Animals, and Compassion in World Farming on the purpose-driven side.

Campaign Film Ltd is my production company, used for larger-scale or brand-sensitive projects that need additional crew, equipment, or production management. For many projects I work directly — as a one-person operation or with a tight core team.
