Who am I?

 

I started my career in the early 2010s in the UK, where I finished a Film and Media degree followed by a Masters in Directing and Cinematography by the Brighton Film School.

By then I was already working for a London-based international corporate communication agency, forming myself as a cinematographer and editor over the following 10 years.

 

The agency gave me the chance of working all over the World, from China to the US, from South Africa to the cold winters of Kazakhstan...and anywhere in between. Also to work for big clients like Grant Thornton, Virgin Active, Rolls Royce, BMW...

Over the first few years, I got to shoot my first feature length documentary "Le Chemin des Juifs" with my friend Daniel Bhattacharya.​ Also did a bunch of music videos, commercials, and short films. I even interviewed former UK Prime Ministers Tony Blair and Gordon Brown!
 

A couple of years back I moved to Tenerife, in Spain, where I have been enjoying a relaxed family life, while gaining experience working with bigger crews. Since then I jump between the UK and the Canary Islands to get involved in different projects and I still travel around for work whenever the opportunity comes my way, it's when I feel in my best element.
 

In 2021 I had the opportunity of documenting an erupting volcano from the exclusion zone, and almost burned my face. Some of that can be seen on Netflix's 'Life on our Planet', produced by Steven Spielberg and narrated by Morgan Freeman. Also I have centred my work around narrative projects working on  TV series like 'Stags' and features like 'Den of Thieves 2: Pantera' and 'Cloner'. Always behind the camera, either as cinematographer or as operator.
