Videographer based in London & Cambridge

Mill Hide / Tim Poulson

A significant house situated near Cambridge next to a nature reserve.

This film was created over the summer/autumn of 2024 to capture the house in different light. A four month project. Tools used included lav mics, aputure LED lights, DJI drone, electronic slider and a gimbal for walkthroughs.

Neo Bankside Penthouse by Studio Reed

‘Tate Modern and the Millennium Bridge have changed not just the South Bank but also Britain, and Neo Bankside is at the very heart of it all.

It is an extraordinary developement - there is nowhere quite like it in London.’

Lord Richard Rogers.

Allies and Morrison Studio, Southwark

Three buildings - one concrete, one Victorian, one timber - have been designed, adapted, restored and extended by Allies & Morrison practice to create the compact, integrated campus of studio space.

Serpentine Pavilion 2015 - Selgascano

In 2015, Spanish architects selgascano designed the 15th Serpentine Pavilion. The award-winning studio, headed by José Selgas and Lucía Cano, was the first Spanish architecture practice to be asked to design the temporary Pavilion on the Serpentine’s lawn in London’s Kensington Gardens.

The Shard with Clouds - Renzo Piano

I took this from one of the lift lobbies at Neo Bankside, just behind the Tate Modern. Inside, high up by the entrance to a penthouse I was photographing. It was one of those lucky experiences that the window cleaners came out exactly at the same time I set off the time lapse.

Cramner Road - Allies & Morrison

The first major Passivhaus buildings in Cambridge, this new student accommodation delivers 59 new graduate rooms for King's College, Cambridge. It comprises of two distinct, new buildings - a 'Garden Building' and a 'Villa Building' - both set within the gardens of three existing villas. The gardens themselves have been substantially re-landscaped to unify the site as a 'graduate campus' delivering on the College's aim to enhance student experience/wellbeing and increase participation in college life.

House in Coombe Park, Eldridge London

Eldridge London’s House in Coombe Park, London, is located in a secluded enclave of inter-war suburban bungalows and takes a markedly contrasting approach to the redevelopment of the site from the pastiche neoclassical neighbours being built nearby. 

The main accommodation is below the entrance rotunda at the garden level, connected by a staircase to the first floor structure floating above. The surprising appearance of the building is generated from the specifics of its site and context but allied to a fully functional plan with the owner committing to the architects' imaginative contemporary design.

Regency House, London, MS-DA

This Grade II listed Regency end of terrace is a very narrow but six story home for two art dealers and their three children. The Regency character had suffered after a mansard roof was added in 1939 and a lot of the original features had been lost, probably during a refurbishment in the 1980-ties. But the building retained its integrity and charm and offers a decent sized south facing patio garden and magnificent views over the roofs of Belgravia in earshot of St Peter's Church on Eaton Square.

Homerton College Dining Hall / Fielden Fowles

Feilden Fowles has completed a striking new faience-tiled dining hall at Homerton College, University of Cambridge, after winning an international open-call design competition in 2017. The new building for Cambridge’s youngest College comprises a dining hall, buttery, kitchens and associated staff amenities on a 3,000m2 site adjacent to the Arts and Crafts style Ibberson Building (1914) and Victorian Gothic Revival buildings.

Serpentine Pavilion 2022 Black Chapel by Theaster Gates

Black Chapel is a site for contemplation and convening, set within the grounds of Serpentine in Kensington Gardens. The structure’s central oculus emanates a single source of light to create a sanctuary for reflection, refuge and conviviality. The project mirrors the artist’s ongoing engagement with ‘the vessel’ in his studio practice, and with space-making through his celebrated urban regeneration projects.

Las Arenas / Richard Rogers + Alonso y Balaguer

The Las Arenas bullring formally re-opened to the public on 25 March 2011 as a major new mixed-use leisure, entertainment, and office complex. The historic bullring, built at the end of the 19th century, fell largely into disuse during the 1970s due to the declining popularity of bull fighting in Catalonia.

The design has created an open and accessible entrance to the new building at street level. In addition, an adjacent building - the 'Eforum' - provides retail and restaurants at ground and first-floor levels, with four levels of offices above.

Old Park Lane / Dar Global

Situated on the corner of Old Park Lane and Piccadilly, overlooking Green Park. Nº149 is one of the finest Grade II properties on Old Park Lane. It has been meticulously redeveloped and designed to the highest of standards throughout.

Magdalene College, Cambridge Library / Niall McLaughlin

The library is a suite of interconnecting rooms lined with bookcases, reading desks and galleries. The spaces are single height, double height and triple height, rising to a long elevated gallery overlooking the lawn and the water. The larger spaces are flanked by smaller niches and rooms with glimpses connecting them together. The interior spaces are made from a cross-laminated timber structure with hardwood shelves and tables. The intention is for all of the key features to be perceived as an interwoven set of elements. Roof lights, columns, shelves, light baffles,

I offer videography for the creation of short films and social media reels. I work as the cameraman on location creating the footage in 4k. Supplying it as clips which can be edited into films.

I first started shooting video of architecture and interiors in 2012 when I photographed the impressive penthouse at Neo Bankside by Studio Reed.

I then continued with a film of Allies & Morrison’s architectural studio. I have produced timelapses and now shoot frequently in portrait mode for social media reels.

For the last 12 years I have been upgrading my systems, using DJI gimbals, electronic sliders & drones. The technology has got so much better.

I’m also using a Ninja V external recorder so I can record 12bit colour in ProRes Raw. I have upgraded my lighting, using several Aputure LED lights for fill. These have proven to be really useful.

Producing short films is a collaborative effort, if I am required to help produce a video (Cramner Road by Allies and Morrison is a good example). I can provide the footage and the audio and editing can be done in-house for award entries.

My approach is to be flexible, for larger productions I have contacts who can help me with professional audio recording and editing. For the most part I am producing footage for ‘b’ roll which has proven to be very important for my clients.

If you have a significant project we really should take the opportunity to take some video footage of it while we have access. So do get in touch to discuss.
