Having been active in the film industry for quite some time, I ultimately found my place in the lighting department in 2014 after a period of exploration. After assisting extensively, I quickly began lighting my own productions as a gaffer. I own a fully equipped lighting van (L4H3) with a lighting package suitable for small to medium-sized sets, both in studio and on location. In addition to conventional lighting techniques, I have developed a strong enthusiasm for working with reflected light using CRLS products from The Lightbridge. I provide lighting for video, film and photography across a wide range of productions, including commercials, corporate videos, (short) films, television, music videos, and documentaries.

I sometimes work independently, but often with the assistance of best boys, best girls, and lighting assistants, depending on the production and the available budget.
