I have travelled extensively and shot dramatic films/TV series and documentaries throughout North America, Europe, Asia, Australia and the South Pacific.

I have 18 years of experience lighting and shooting on all acquisition formats including: Super-8mm, 16mm, Super-16mm, 35mm, Super-35mm, Anamorphic, Arriflex, Moviecam, Arricam, Panaflex, BetaSP, Digi-Beta, DVCPro, Panasonic HD, Sony HD,  Viper,  Genesis, F-35 and RED.

I offer the option of two full HD camera packages -- the RED CAMERA and the PANASONIC AF-100 camera. Production kits include Super-Speed PL prime lenses covering 14mm through to 200mm as well as Canon zoom lenses covering 11mm to 200mm. Additional accessories include Arri follow-focus units, Arri matteboxes, FIZ and BFD remote focus units, a full set of 4x5.6” production filters and several support options including O’Connor and Sachtler tripods, fluid heads and multiple sliders.

I come fully equipped with an industry-standard PRO STEADICAM package with all necessary brackets, cables and accessories to shoot with all film and HD cameras currently in production. I have a complete PRESTON microwave FIZ remote systems with all accessories, 3 motors, digital microforce, backup cables, brackets and focus rings.

For smaller shoots, I also provide my own basic HMI, tungsten and LED lighting package as well as a  basic grip package.

I will assemble an enthusiastic and experienced technical crew for your production regardless of your budget level.

I have solid contacts with equipment rental houses in Canada, USA, UK, and Australia and a positive attitude when it comes to getting your film shot.

I hold full membership in the IATSE 669 camera union.
