Director of Photography
With an interest in Renaissance and 18th century Art, a degree in film, and a very practical background in shorts and commercials, Mike’s a very different proposition to most DoPs and his work on a number of drama as well as documentary features has generated multiple awards. With bases in London and Manchester, he is available to work worldwide.
