Director of Photography - Analogue photographer - Director/DP

Based in Dubai, I shoot across the globe from observational documentary to commercial. I’ve shot for major broadcasters, brands, governments and NGOs. I've worked at altitude in the Himalayas, with street kids in Sao Paolo, scientists in Malawi, and on helipads in Dubai.

Originally from the North of England, I trained in the UK, starting my career loading on feature films, focus pulling on commercials and shooting documentary content. I've always loved documentary and in these early days I shot several beautiful projects in Malawi, China and India which went on to win awards, change government policy and secure additional funding.
Now based in Dubai, I work locally and internationally shooting commercial & documentary as DP or Director/DP. I create cinema-quality visuals with top-line cameras, primarily on location but also in the studio.
I love to create images that feel real. I shoot with as much depth and feeling as possible. I embrace imperfection, texture and in-camera techniques. To me it has to feel human. Especially in documentary where I shoot to provide a rich visual palette, images which combine to portray a visceral world.

Analogue photography takes years to master. I've developed it as an additional discipline but also to inform my cinematography. All film has an inherent texture and depth, and a beautiful potential for imperfection. But each stock also reacts differently enabling a vast array of looks to suit the subject.
My still analogue work has been featured in magazines and exhibitions internationally. I'm now encouraging the renewed used of Super8, 16mm & 35mm motion film in the region, especially as a visual tool alongside digital on commercial projects.
