Alex’s path to the film industry didn’t follow a straight line—he began as a barber, mastering precision with clippers before discovering a passion for the camera during the pandemic. This unexpected pivot led him to a degree in Film Production, where he graduated with 1st Class Honours in Cambridge and a love of cinematography. Throughout his time during and post-university, he shot countless projects as a Director of Photography including short films, music videos and even commercial content for clients such as Shakespeare’s Globe and British Cinematographer magazine. Alongside this he gained experience within the camera department in every role, getting as much joy from assisting others as he has shooting for himself. Alex is currently sharpening his Camera Assisting skills at the National Film and Television School.
Whether working on large-scale productions or independent projects, Alex thrives on the collaborative art of storytelling. A genuine love for not only the process but the tech itself leaves Alex constantly looking to absorb new information and skills, while searching for tools to help him become the most reliable assistant possible. He brings focus, adaptability and an engaged presence to every project and strives to be an invaluable asset to any team.
