🎬 11+ years in narrative filmmaking. From magazines to panels, I’ve fought to make sure women aren’t just seen – they’re heard 🙌 . . . #WomenInFilm #EmmaDark #RepresentationMatters #WomenEmpoweringWomen #Integrity

1/2 A recent, well deserved break to the Jurassic Coast. Behind me, the fossil rich cliffs of Lyme Regis, where nearly 200 million year old layers preserve the remains of the ancient ocean and the spectacular creatures that inhabited it.

1/2 Shooting stills earlier this week at a conference with this beast. I have to admit, I usually use smaller primes, so this did make me feel rather like a paparazzi!

2/2 As the event was broadcast the zoom lens helped me stay out of the way of the cameras as much as possible – and I was pleasantly surprised by the results 📸 . . . #Filmmaking #Filmmaker #Photography #Cinematography #Photographer

1/2 If there’s one thing I can’t stress enough, it’s that the kit you own doesn’t determine how good your filmmaking or photography is. It’s not even about technically knowing how to use the kit. The fundamentals are talent and taste.

2/2 Kit, technique and practice then accentuate that. Don’t focus on kit and specific software, focus on developing your craft. That said, I’m very happy to have purchased a new 85mm prime lens and making some magic with it 🎬📸 . . . #Filmmaker #Cinematography #Photographer

Had a fabulous time at FrightFest. Catching up with lots of talented fellow creatives and amazing cinephile friends. Throughly enjoyed watching SYNTHESIZED (2026) – authentically 80s inspired, visually stunning, with an original plot. 11/10 ⭐️ . . . #FrightFest #FilmFestival

📸 Just under 80 professional portraits with retouching now complete, following on from my recent creative corporate shoot. Quite the edit session, as I allowed for plenty of variety and individualism for each participant while shooting

📸 X marks the spot and the completion of me shooting 27 creative corporate headshot sessions over the last two days. Portrait photography direction is easier when you offer small hacks like giving subjects a defined place to stand. Combat boots optional!
