Mike has been viewing life through a lens for more than 40 years. The “creative itch” started early growing up among the jungles and beaches of Bougainville Island in PNG where he would sneak off with his dad's Canon Super 8MM.

A graduate of the UCSQ’s (University College of Southern Queensland) Film & TV department, he started capturing images professionally in 1991, working for various Broadcast TV Networks’ production departments, filming commercials and shows for national, state and regional broadcast.

With a 2 year stint in London working with diverse range of clients (BBC, Channel 5, ITV, Czech TV, ZDF, WTN, APTN, Disney and Star TV Athens) and projects all over Europe he focused on documentaries, creating beautiful moving images and telling compelling stories.

With over 25 years experience & now based in Sydney Australia, he is renowned for innovative, creative and collaborative cinematography to help make captivating narratives. His eye for composition and lighting, enthusiasm, attention to detail and technical skill have earned him a long list of devoted clients both here in Australia and abroad. Working with agencies, productions companies, producers and directors he has established himself as a "first choice" DP for TVC’s, Branded Content, Corporate and Online Videos, Documentaries and Short Films.
