About
Wedding Video Editor and filmmaker with 15+ years of professional editing and production experience, specialising in emotionally honest storytelling from real-life moments.
Final Cut
Pro is my primary editing platform, supported by DaVinci Resolve, Adobe Premiere Pro, Avid, After Effects, Audition, and CapCut. I shape wedding films, personal documentaries, and broadcast work into polished stories with natural pacing, clean dialogue, intentional music, cinematic colour, and dependable remote delivery.
