  • Location Scout / On Set
  • Unit Stills Photographer

Currently working in the Locations Department of a feature film. I have experience in creating maps, movement orders, recce schedules, presentations and location agreements, worked on set, scouted filming locations, liaised with the local council and property owners, coordinated swings, crew movements and outsourced services (e.g. location security, real estate, transportation).

My previous career was in the military, where I travelled the world and have used photography as a storytelling tool. For this I was recognised by National Geographic and Nikon.

Keen now to further my feature experience across both Locations and Unit Still Photography.

I enjoy being in the middle of the action — supporting the practical side of production (Locations) while documenting the moments that often go unseen (Unit Stills/ BTS).

Lists as:

  • (Emerging) Production
  • Location Coordinator

A team-first crew member who brings strong real-world experience, sound judgment, and a calm, practical approach to set life. Strengths in research, public communication, and problem-solving.

I thrive in varied work environments, enjoy discovering unique visually striking, locations and am pursuing roles in Location coordination and scouting.

I’ve completed training through AFTRS and have experience on small-budget productions across producing, assistant directing support, locations, and PA roles; and understand set etiquette, chain of command, and the importance of clear communication, organisation, and follow-through to keep productions running smoothly.

My background outside the industry has built excellent communication skills, reliability under pressure, and the ability to anticipate needs and adapt quickly in fast-moving environments.

I’m organised, proactive, and comfortable handling logistics, paperwork, and problem-solving on the fly. I take pride in being easy to work with, respectful of all departments, and focused on supporting the wider crew.

Keen to continue building experience and to be a dependable, positive presence wherever support is needed.

Coordinator – Production (network) and Locations

Over fifteen years in the screen industry,  across on-set and offset roles with majority of experience as a coordinator in production and locations.

Over five years freelance on Network Ten shoots as production manager, production coordinator, post-production coordinator – taking on additional roles as first assistant director, second assistant director and casting coordinator. I thrive in a demanding quick turn-around environment.

Extensive location scouting experience throughout Queensland, with an excellent knowledge of the south-east and northern rivers locations, where I particularly established long-term local connections.

Coming back into the freelance world, after a stint in-house as senior producer, director, writer on two-year Queensland Government contract including commercial campaigns, documentary series, news and online. Over the years, I have also produced and directed music videos for major client Sony Music Australia and as I started out in the camera department I have also camera-assisted on commercials, music videos and long-form.

Looking now to firmly plant myself in long form / drama world – and seeking opportunities in a locations team or build up my credits in production.
