Such is Louis’s commitment to documentary-making (even at family events) that his mum used to call him ‘the invisible man’ – a great compliment for an observational filmmaker.
Louis is a graduate of the filmmaking course at Bournemouth University, where he specialised in cinematography and documentary. His graduate film, an experimental love letter to the town of Blackpool, was featured on Nowness and was admitted by the BFI into the National Film Archives. Not a bad start.
Louis has a deep appreciation of films that depict the human condition with all its contradictions – from iconic war stories to impactful documentaries. Therein lies a clue as to how he found himself, soon after graduating, working for the BBC and ITV: filming live news events, covering political rallies, protests and riots in London. He was hooked. Documenting the visceral, darker side of life became a passion.
Since joining Nice Shirt in Feb 2020, Louis has shot all over the world shooting documentary films and branded content for huge array of clients including Gymshark, Nike, Burberry, Marriott and Tesla. We’re also pretty sure he’s got a Wagamama black card (which he refuses to share).
When we asked Louis what his aims were when he joined he said; “God only knows what’s going to happen to this planet in my lifetime, but whatever it is I want to be out there seeing it with a camera in my hand”.
