Videography

I create moving picture that feels immersive and emotionally resonant.

From camera craft to colour grading, I bring a deep technical understanding of the filmmaking process. '

I’m adept at capturing authentic interviews and building narrative arcs that draw viewers in. Every frame is guided by a balance of precision, story, and human connection.

Snow Foundation x University of Canberra

This was a substantial video production that I produced, filmed, edited and directed for the University of Canberra’s new Snow Foundation Scholarship. It involved numerous talking head interviews on location, narrative building and extensive consultation with numerous stakeholders.

In His Words - The Street Theatre, Canberra

For this major dramatic work I filmed and interviewed nine fathers. From the 170 pages of transcripts, I then created a narrative work that attempted to capture the power of Fatherhood. The 70 minutes of visuals were then scored by soundscapes and a live 5 piece band.

Additional Skills…

Photography

I specialise in portraiture that reveals personality and story. I’m skilled at putting people at ease, drawing out their confidence and natural presence in front of the lens. With strong technical ability in studio lighting and photographic composition, I balance precision with warmth. My portraits aim to feel intimate, cinematic, and true to the individual.

Here is a small snapshot of my photographic work:
