video that feels like a conversation. Not a corporate monologue, something that reflects you, your business and your people.

I’ve spent nearly two decades behind a camera, first inside big-brand comms and now on my own, telling stories through film that actually feels real. I’m not here to flog you a generic highlight reel. I’m here to help you show the world who you really are and why it matters. You bring the story. I’ll bring the camera, the plan and the judgement, and we’ll make something that stops the scroll and sticks around.

what experience actually buys you

Years inside the corporate machine taught me how stories die: by committee, by playing it safe, by only filming the things on the shot list instead of the thing that show who you are.

So on a shoot, we’re not just getting the scripted moments that you need, but I’m watching for the moments the script gets dropped and the real answer slips out - then I build the whole film around it.

That instinct is the difference between footage and a story, and it’s not something a cheaper camera-for-hire or an AI tool is going to give you.

SOME OF THE STUFF I DO

what i can help with

Brand films, social content, internal and external comms, event coverage, interviews, testimonials and documentary-style storytelling. I’ve made everything from a film about opening an envelope (no, really, I have!) to employee films watched in more than thirty countries. If you’re not sure something’s doable, ask.

the story bank

Every video project above entry level includes The Story Bank, a curated stash of b-roll and supporting footage delivered as a proper asset, not a throwaway extra. It’s yours to keep, and you can keep building new content from it long after we’ve wrapped the shoot. It’s the value that short-sighted clients forget about.

here's some examples

Every different light project runs on the same four-step framework. It's what turns a shoot into content that actually does its job.

Every different light project runs on the same four-step framework. It's what turns a shoot into content that actually does its job.

01

shape

Before anyone picks up a camera, we get clear on what you are trying to say and who needs to hear it. This is The Story Brief: a proper conversation about your why, your audience and the outcome you want.

Most businesses don't have a content problem. They have a clarity problem, and this is where we fix it.

02

capture

We film with the time and access the story deserves. I work quietly, put people at ease and catch the real moments - the ones that happen when everyone forgets I am there.

Give the process a little more room than feels comfortable and that is exactly where the best material comes from.

03

build

We shape the footage into content that works. One shoot, planned well, can become a hero film, social cuts, stills and a Story Bank of supporting footage you can keep drawing from.

We curate it together before the edit is locked.

04

amplify

Content that sits on a shelf earns nothing.

We make sure yours is built to be used, repurposed and seen, so one shoot keeps working for months rather than days.

One shoot, many futures - that's the whole point.

ad-hoc & add-on rates card

A rate card is a starting point, not a ceiling. And it's equally just the beginning of the conversation.

Every project is scoped properly once we have shaped it together, so the figures below are a guide to show you roughly where things sit.

Budget tight? Let's have an open and honest discussion about that straight up - because when budgets are tight, I can still help you get the most bang from your buck. Let's talk first.
