Read MoreI’m a wildlife cinematographer based in the US and China. Originally starting with aerials over 10 years ago, I am now equally at home filming on the ground and in the air. While still providing specialised aerials including low light (moonlit) heavy lift and FPV with Sony and Red cameras, I am also well versed in long lens, camera trapping, gimbal, cable dolly, motorized slider, and low light. I am trained on the Shotover M1.
Recent productions include HOME Africa for BBC NHU/National Geographic and Planet Earth III for BBC. I love working in remote and extreme environments that are both physically and mentally challenging. Having a technical background from studying computer science in university I am comfortable to diagnose and repair or improvise in the field when there is no other option.
While having a home base in the USA, I have lived in China and Vietnam for 6 years and Tanzania for 5 years and am currently in the process of moving back to China.
