Hi everyone,

We all have short attention spans, so a very quick blurb about me.

UNDERWATER

I worked with National Geographic from 2006-2015 as an underwater camera man. Underwater is where my heart is and it doesn’t matter if I’m filming sharks or filming people, it’s my happy place.

FASHION

Since 2015, I’ve been based in the Uk, and have transitioned into fashion, product and restaurant photography and videography. Of note, I have worked on numerous occasions at London Fashion Week, capturing brands such as David Koma, Harris Reed and Paul & Joe. As a result I’m very accustomed to working with models and making people in my shoots feel relaxed and comfortable to get the best out of them. If people are not smiling on the job, something is wrong!

RESTAURANTS

With restaurants, of note, are shoots with world renowned chefs Albert Adria, Nicklas Eskeldt and Karan Gorani. With chef Adria, I ran the video production for his new line of Pasta (“Atavi”). With chefs Gorani &Eskeldt, I was responsible for capturing photo and video content for their new collaborative menu. On all these occasions (and many more) what was imperative was getting people comfortable in. Amers. Genuinely something g I pride myself in. When people are relaxed, that’s when they perform best.

HOPES/ASPIRATIONS 

With my work in fashion/working with models, and with the help of the model community in here, I’m hoping to break into Boudoir photography and Bikin photography. Cameron Hammond is one of the photographers who I admire the most, and he works in this field. I would love to aim to replicate his work with the right people.

also, given the rise of AI in photography and video, I very much need models now to showcase how the human touch is more important than ever and reinforce that AI can help us, but never replace us. I have a number of interesting projects around this topic that I would like to focus on with the right models for the job.

One final mention of work I have done, and am proud of, I have been lucky enough to lead the content creation strategy on OnlyFans for a few notable creators & models, most notably Mandy Sacs, whom I have worked with for the past few months and who has seen a huge rise in her income. I have assisted her with strategy, shooting, content ideation and more. Developing as a videographer & strategist for the right person on OnlyFans is also something I would like to develop after my recent successes there.

ill sign off by leaving you with an example of my work. It showcases some of the affluent people, brands and celebrities I have worked with.

so if you’re looking to grow your portfolio, are looking for a personal photographer/videographer, do reach out to me. Likewise I’ll be reaching out to a load of you that I’d be I retested to work with on various projects.

stay creative, stay fabulous.
