At Liberty Global, I lead film and photography projects from early creative development through to delivery: working across international teams, live events, broadcast and branded content.

The work ranges from intimate people-led films to large-scale flagship productions, often involving complex stakeholders, multiple markets and fast turnaround. My role spans creative development, directing, production and post.

I have led series planning, directed and overseen both film and photography shoots across studio and location, and delivered content at pace.

To launch John Cleese's first talk show on GB News, I led the creative development and production of key campaign assets: including the main promo, a feature-length behind-the-scenes programme, press photography, radio advertising and poster stills.

I worked closely with Cleese throughout production and personally shot and edited several of the campaign's deliverables.

I drew on a combination of hybrid cameras (Sony FX6, Sony A7SIII, Fujifilm X-H2S & X-T5). The campaign was widely covered in mainstream media with mention of my work in the Times and METRO.

CORPORATE & EDITORIAL PHOTOGRAPHY

Photography direction runs alongside every production I lead: part of a genuine hybrid workflow. At Liberty Global and GB News, for example, a single shoot day can yield both broadcast-grade film and a full library of stills for the same brief.

I shoot on Fujifilm for a reason: the X-H2S and X-S20 read as a photographer's camera rather than a cinema rig, which changes how people behave in front of it. For corporate and editorial work, that's the difference between a posed portrait and a genuine moment.
