Food & Drink DOP
From the farm and the sea to the plate and the glass.
Food & Drink DOPFood and drink is a big part of my commercial work.
I've been 2nd unit DP on Marks & Spencer's Farm to Foodhall campaigns every year from 2020 to 2024 with Chief TV, filming the producers behind the food. I've also shot for Coca-Cola Europacific Partners, Sharps Brewery and Talisker.
Good food films need beautiful product and honest people. I'm at home on a farm in the rain or a boat at dawn, and just as careful with light and detail on a tabletop.
What I bring
Provenance stories: farms, fishing boats, producers and kitchens.
Product shots with controlled light and movement.
Aerial shots of farms, coast and landscape in the same look.
Experience with brand guidelines and agency sign-off.
