I started when I left school in 1962 and I got my first break at Richmond Theatre as a student assistant stage manager, I have always been fascinated by the moving image.
I left the theatre and became a Clapper loader and managed to get a feature film
The Deadly Bees and work took off and then Casino Royale, where I worked with John Wilcox BSC ,Jack Hildyard BSC.
I then took on additional photography on Pop Down and then 2nd unit on the Downhill Racer in 1969. The Festival Game my first shoot as DOP . Then went on with many other Films and TV commercials I retired in 2015 .
I wish to thank all the crews I worked with over the years .
