specifics
Cinematic storytelling & lighting artistry – 15+ years shaping narratives for television and documentary, with lighting skills honed from my early career as a gaffer.
Handheld, human-centric camera work – a documentary-inspired style that keeps the viewer immersed and lends an authentic, intimate feel to every frame.
Natural-light mastery – whether daylight exteriors or interiors motivated by windows and practicals, I enhance existing light sources to create truthful, atmospheric visuals that elevate the story.
Cross-cultural perspective – South-African roots and Dutch experience combine to bring fresh, inclusive viewpoints to each project.
Collaborative storyteller – respected for my calm set presence, clear communication, and commitment to honouring the subject’s voice while delivering polished, cinematic results.
equipment
I own a Sony FX9 camera package for high-end cinematic work, alongside the Sony FX6 as a versatile, compact option for more agile shoots. My kit includes the Zhiyun Crane 3S Pro gimbal for dynamic camera movement, as well as industry-standard professional lighting, both tungsten and daylight setups ideal for shaping naturalistic, motivated light in a wide range of environments. This setup allows me to deliver cinematic quality with flexibility, whether working handheld, rigged, or on controlled studio-style productions.
