About

I’ve worked on a wide range of editorial and commercial shoots across the UK, Europe and the US, primarily within portraiture, interiors, food and lifestyle photography. My experience ranges from smaller editorial productions to larger commercial sets, and I’m comfortable adapting to different working styles and crews. I mostly work as a 1st assistant or digital operator, supporting photographers with lighting builds, camera setup and on-set workflow. I’m confident building and assisting with lighting setups, troubleshooting on set, and offering input when useful. I’m organised, calm and reliable on set, and enjoy working with new teams and collaborators to help keep shoots running smoothly. I’m used to working in fast-paced environments, across varied locations and briefs, and can work both independently and as part of a larger crew. I place a lot of value on clear communication, good energy on set and being someone people are happy to have back on future jobs. Rates available on request. I work in line with BECTU guidelines.
