Jamie’s passion for imagery started with a mild case of dyslexia when he was a child. Reading was far too much effort and pictures way more exciting. This, coupled with a camera given to him by his grandfather, lead him down the path of making pictures. Jamie was always fascinated by light and shadow and ever since he can remember, he was always easily distracted by beautiful light. The light streaming through his classroom window, the high contrast shadow play caused by shafts of afternoon light streaming through his bedroom...
His art progressed into moving pictures only once he discovered film school and the moment he looked through the lens of a super 16mm camera, he was hooked for life. Cinematography is his lifestyle, not just his work but more so his passion and hobby. His journey started with long form narrative. He very quickly learnt the importance of the community of skill on a film set. After shooting 5 feature films before 30 years old, he moved into commercials.
He loves the immediacy of the commercials world. A whirlwind of ego, creativity, passion, angst, love and funded by someone else... whats not to love. His cinematic style is heavily influenced by the fact that his skill was born out of narrative. He will always search for performance and is repelled by overly 'commercial' imagery.

Cinematography is his obsession....
