Films

My films bring conservation stories to life, from the scientists and rangers working on the frontlines, to the communities and organisations finding solutions to protect wildlife and wild places. Each story is rooted in science, but told through people: their dedication, challenges, and successes.

Through authentic, respectful filmmaking, I aim to:

  • Inspire audiences to connect with biodiversity conservation.

  • Share the science and innovation driving real-world change.

  • Show how each of us can contribute to protecting the natural world.

Filmed with a small or single-person crew, my work captures conservation stories with minimal disruption to fieldwork, ensuring the focus remains on the people and the mission.

Across the world, dedicated people are working tirelessly to protect and restore biodiversity. I believe that by sharing their stories, we can inspire others to connect with the natural world and support the projects safeguarding our global heritage.

Too often, conservation is framed as “doom and gloom.” While the challenges are real, I focus on optimism, showcasing the remarkable successes and innovations already making a difference. By highlighting these stories, without shying away from the truth, I aim to engage wider audiences and build a stronger collective voice for conservation.

We can make a difference and many people and organisations already are.

Here are some stories I’ve told…
