My Story

​

Director of Photography in Edinburgh & Scotland

​

Based in Edinburgh, Scotland, I’m available for productions throughout Edinburgh, Glasgow and the wider Scottish production industry, as well as projects across the UK, EU and USA. I have a unique position having a US and German passport, while having the right to work in the UK.

​

I work as a freelance camera operator and DoP, either joining an established production team or helping to develop the camera and lighting approach for a project from pre-production through to filming.

I also have access to a professional cinema equipment package including the ARRI ALEXA 35, anamorphic and spherical cinema lenses, professional lighting, monitoring and camera support equipment.

​

Recent projects have taken me to Brazil, Florida, Germany and Kazakhstan. My ability to adapt in harsh conditions while shooting heavy subject matter in documentaries, -fast paced environments on commercials and long grinds on long form dramas have given me a unique skill-set to be adaptable and to plan and shoot various shooting styles across the globe.
