Born in Italy and raised in the New Forest, I moved to London to study and live in 2016. I have been working in the film industry since 2018, initially in the lighting department on high-end commercials and features, and now as a DoP. My approach to cinematography is grounded in intuition, rhythm & collaboration. Outside of work I'm a lover of cooking and great food, of boxing, of drumming & living a happy life.

I can speak native Italian as well as English.

Things I've loved recently:

The Eight Mountains (2022)

Il Posto (1961)

La Haine (1995)

Yi Yi (2000)

Y Tu Mamá También (2001)
