Cinema with presence
where depth matters more than performance
I don’t believe images are the answer.
Most of the time, the real work happens away from the screen…
in the body, in nature, in direct experience.
And yet, images can be a bridge…
To help us feel.
My way of working doesn’t start with the idea of how something should look,
but with a sensitivity for what is already present.
When people stop trying to appear a certain way
and simply arrive in themselves.
That moment is fragile.
It can’t be forced, staged, or improved.
I have little interest in kitsch, show and beauty that tries too hard.
It offends my sense of truth.

Here’s a small glimpse into the person behind the images.
Rumor has it this doesn’t happen often —
the filmmaker appearing on camera,
before returning to his natural habitat.
Music collaborations
Working with artists
from music videos and album imagery to tour documentation and promotional material.
I care deeply about visual language and projects that carry a clearer social, political or ecological tension.
Live formats
Being present while things unfold
I work with live formats such as retreats, festivals, and gatherings.
On-site filming, aftermovies, and longer-form documentation —
close to what’s unfolding, without directing the situation.
Cultural & impact projects
Longer-form work in development
I’m gradually moving into longer-form and impact-driven projects.
This includes cultural initiatives, social themes, and collaborations with NGOs, associations, and funding bodies.
Selected commercial work
Visual work with purpose
working with individuals, organisations, or brands
that value clarity, aesthetics, and thoughtful representation.
This includes image films, portraits, and educational formats,
developed with visual quality, time, and intention.
One last thing
At the end of the day,
I work with images because I’m curious about people.
If you have an idea, a project, or a vision you’re carrying —
feel free to reach out and share it.
Sometimes a conversation is all it takes
to see whether something wants to grow.
