About

Some things in life don’t need to be chosen—they choose you. Filmmaking was never a decision I made; it was something that found me. From a young age, I was drawn to visual storytelling, but the moment that truly changed everything was watching The Message by Moustapha Al Akkad. That film wasn’t just a story—it was history, soul, and vision captured on screen. It resonated deeply with me, and with every rewatch, I discovered something new: the framing, the light, the emotion. It opened the door to what would become a lifelong calling.

Now, nearly 15 years later, that calling has turned into a full-fledged career. I’ve had the privilege of working across a wide spectrum of formats—from award-winning short films to TV series, high-end commercials, and global documentaries. My work has taken me from capturing raw human stories deep in the Amazon rainforest for Al Jazeera, to choreographing high-speed automotive sequences across the shifting dunes of the Middle East.

I grounded my skills through formal education, earning a Diploma in Filmmaking from SAE Institute and a Bachelor’s degree in Digital Film Production from Middlesex University in London. These were not just academic milestones—they were formative years of discipline, experimentation, and growth.

Over time, my efforts have been recognized internationally. Cadence of the Valley earned Best Picture at the Istanbul Film Awards and Best Cinematography at the New York Cinematography Awards. Earlier, Setback of the Spirit received Best Cinematography at the RTF Awards in 2017.
Today, I approach every frame with the same passion that started it all. Whether it’s a dramatic narrative, a cinematic commercial, or an untold documentary story—I’m here to bring moments to life with honesty, craft, and intention.

Film

There’s something incredibly powerful about turning a written script into moving visuals. For me, it’s like slipping into a flow state—where every scene, character, and setting starts to live and breathe. I’ve worked extensively with top-tier cinema gear—ARRI, RED, Sony Venice—and I stay hands-on with the latest in lens tech, lighting setups, and rigging systems. But great filmmaking goes beyond equipment. I immerse myself in every phase of production—from testing music references, to color grading, to shaping emotion in post. I’ve shot on greenscreens, underwater, even mid-skydive—and every time, I’m searching for a new way to say something visually. What drives me is the collaboration—the energy of a team working toward one vision. When all the pieces align, and that final frame clicks into place, there’s nothing like it.

Documentaries

After over a decade working in documentaries, stepping into the heart of the Amazon was unlike anything I had done before. Nothing prepares you for the unpredictability of nature, the rhythms of remote tribes, or the sheer silence of the jungle. But that’s the beauty of it—real stories don’t come with a script. Shooting in harsh and shifting conditions taught me adaptability. But what mattered even more was learning to connect—off camera, first. Building trust became a central part of my approach. When people feel safe, they open up. That’s when the real story begins. The camera becomes invisible, and what you capture is raw, imperfect, and deeply human. That’s what documentaries are meant to be—messy, emotional, honest.

Automotive Films

Every car has a soul. And no two are the same. Whether I’m filming a sleek electric prototype or a rugged off-roader tearing through desert dunes, my goal is always the same: to reveal the character of the machine. As Jeremy Clarkson once said, some people see cars as just metal and rubber—but those who truly understand them know they’re more than that. They’re living, breathing entities with quirks, flaws, and personality. My approach is cinematic and emotionally driven. I treat each shoot like a portrait session—finding the car’s best angles, understanding its movement, and revealing the craftsmanship in every curve and shadow. It’s about capturing not just how it looks, but how it feels.

Commercials

What I love about commercials is the challenge. In a matter of seconds, you’re telling a full story—or sparking a feeling that lingers. It’s a test of creativity under pressure. The attention span is short, but the possibilities are endless. Each project is a new puzzle. Whether the goal is emotional impact or sleek product storytelling, I work to find that hook—that twist or visual X factor that pulls the viewer in. It’s a space where I get to be bold, experimental, and intentional. And in many ways, it’s where storytelling becomes art under constraint. A brief window to say a lot—with very little time.
