I started my career as a member of the Archaeological diving team, and staff photographer, on the Mary Rose Project. This project involved the complete excavation and recovery of the hull of the Mary Rose, King Henry VIII’s flagship which sank in 1545.

In 1983 I started working as a film camera assistant, and became a cameraman in 1986.  Since then I have shot documentaries all over the world for numerous clients, mainly the BBC, ITV and Channel 4, but also Discovery Channel and National Geographic

Although I shoot predominantly on terra firma, I do specialise in underwater filming, and as such have shot many underwater sequences for television dramas, feature films and commercials.

I have lit huge interiors, small dramas, thousands of interviews, flown in many different types of helicopters, and travelled all over the world.  Extensive experience of undercover and covert filming, and also a reputation for working with very long lenses

I have worked on many award nominated and award winning films, including a recent (2008) Bafta nominated programme about dogfighting
