Hello! I'm Louis, a Sydney-based Director of Photography.

I’m all about creating images that dutifully captures the essence of a good script, story or brief. I’m not married to a style and I believe every picture should elicit its own meanings and emotions. Be it raw or ephemeral, documentary or fictional, I love getting my hands dirty in order to turn a director’s vision into a moving image.

I began my journey into cinematography as I was completing a Master’s in Media Arts and Productions after years of working as a videographer. Upon graduating with Excellence, I then spent 12 years assisting my way up the camera department on feature films, long-form dramas and commercials before becoming a DP. Through these experiences and under the tutelage of some of Australia’s finest Cinematographers, I not only bring a wealth of technical knowledge onto each set, but also a great sense of collaboration, positivity and compassion.

Some of my favourite movies include Infernal Affairs, Hoop Dreams, Fargo and Idiocracy. When I’m not shooting with cameras, you can find me shooting hoops, backpacking or camping in the bush. I can speak 3 languages and love a Szechuan hot pot.

My recent projects include being an operator on Warner/ABC’s Urzila Carlson Sketch Show (premiering in late April) and Class Clowns (currently in Post). Both shows feature some of Australia’s most recognisable comedians and international icons like Anastasia, Dave Hughes, Becky Lucas, Matt Okine, Nina Oyama and Luke McGregor.
