As a cinematographer I adjust myself to the needs of the director and project. In my work I strive to look beyond the beauty or aesthetics of a shot and look for a deeper visual concept that fits seamlessly with the story. A style that feels fresh, innovative, but above all; simple.

When it comes to shooting, I want to be well prepared, while remaining focused and open to any changes. If something unexpected happens, I like to stay open-minded. If it works with the story or style, I like to use it in the scene or shot. More than once, the shots that are not planned end up being the most powerful.
