Shoot

Your project needs footage that cuts together. My shoot service focuses on capturing exactly what the edit will need: framing interviews, covering events and gathering b-roll with the story already in mind. I work closely with your agency team to plan coverage, shoot efficiently on the day and hand over organised, edit-ready rushes, or carry them straight through to the final cut myself.

Showreel

Selected work

  • Ivy Weekender

    Event coverage of Merivale’s three-day Ivy Weekender.

    Shot over three days and nights, this piece had literally hours of footage to sift through, full of people having an amazing time at Ivy in Sydney. Selects were really tough, and it became a jigsaw puzzle as we slowly whittled the shots down to the very best.

  • XeroCon Sydney

    Event coverage of XeroCon 2023 in Sydney.

    The convention itself was a riot of colour, which made the edit pretty easy to put together as we made our way around the International Convention Centre floor. There were lots of quirky little spaces to explore!

  • Behind the Menu: Coogee Middle Floor

    A teaser film launching Merivale’s new venues at Coogee Middle Floor, featuring chef Jordan Toft.

    In this piece, we follow Jordan Toft for a day as he prepares for a media launch event in Narooma. With only a loose shooting plan, we really found the story in the edit suite.

Service

Experienced

With 20+ years in production and post, I shoot knowing what the edit needs, from coverage and continuity to the shots that tie a story together.

Shoot to Edit

One person from camera to final cut: no handover, no lost context, and footage that's already been thought through.

On Location

On set, at events or on the red carpet, I work quickly and quietly so your talent and guests stay at ease.

Collaborative

I plan coverage with your team before the day, then share rushes and cuts on Frame.io for frame-accurate feedback.
