About Me

Member Since 2022 | Views: 50

I am a 2 time Sports Emmy award winning cinematographer and Steadicam Operator hailing from Cape Town, South Africa. At age seventeen, I began working alongside my father, a news cinematographer turned director and producer. I studied at Stellenbosch University, and continued to work with his father. It was through these hands-on experiences in the field that my passion for cinematography came to fruition.

In 2002, I was ready to branch out and seek out new opportunities. An ad at the local mall caught my eye: “Work, Play, USA.” This prompted me to leave home for periods of time to work and live in the United States. I enjoyed hopping back and forth between South Africa, Mt. Snow, VT, Beaver Creek, CO and later southern New Jersey. It was there that I landed some freelance work with NFL Films in 2009. By 2015, I began working for NFL Films fulltime as a senior staff cinematographer.

Today, I reside in South Jersey with his wife and two daughters. He is a passionate self-starter, creative, and extensive hobbyist. He enjoys surfing, photography, cooking, watching films and brewing beer.
