About
I use a DJI Inspire 2 with X7 Camera and four prime lenses. This type of equipment allows for a quick and easy setup on set and its compact size compared to heavy lift drones means it can also be carried to remote areas for filming. The 35mm sensor coupled with 4 prime lenses and 6K Cinema DNG or 4K prores with 14 stops of dynamic range means the images are stunning from this system.

Credits include:

• ITV ‘This Morning’ (Dozens of VT’s)
• BBC ‘Countryfile’ (Several episodes)
• National Geographic ‘Europe from the Air’ (3 series)
• BBC ‘Scotland from Above’
• BBC “Ben Fogle - Sacred Isles’
• BBC ‘Jules and Greg’s Wild Swim’
• BBC ALBA ‘Dana’ (3 series)

I also own Mavic 3 pro CINE and several other drones for use in different situations.

On Construction sites we have flown at Nigg Bay on several renewable projects as well as in Orkney on two separate tidal projects. Also filmed for the A9 dualing for planning meetings and construction. Also filmed for four years in Antarctica with Morrison Construction and edited the film of the new hospital build in Tristan de Cunha. Several roof surveys throughout Scotland too.

I have a past career as a Mountain Instructor and Polar Guide (from 6 years guiding in Antarctica) and I hold the MCI qualification (The highest national qualification in climbing and mountaineering). This makes me relaxed in most environments and always happy and positive, as that was ingrained from years of being in extreme mountain or polar places with clients relying on you being optimistic always, lol. I am also very happy to travel for work, and in the past I have filmed in The Kingdom of Bhutan, Nepal, Sweden, France, Switzerland, Italy, Barbados, Austria, Kenya, Majorca, Channel Isles, Australia and Antarctica.

My films have appeared in Edinburgh, Aviemore, Fort William, Dundee, and Kendal Mountain Film Festivals, Hobart Antarctic Film Festival and the 48hr Antarctic Film Festival. A recent Climbing film I took the aerial filming for, has won many cinematography awards throughout Europe.
