I am currently completing time-lapse photography for Werner Herzog’s new film: “Queen of the Desert” is a chronicle of Gertrude Bell’s life, a traveler, writer, archaeologist, explorer, cartographer, and political attaché for the British Empire at the dawn of the twentieth century. This is one of the most challenging things I have done and I am working under the supervision of Peter Zeitlinger, the award-winning director of photography responsible for a good number of Herzog’s films. So a real honour to be involved.

“Queen of the Desert” also has a top cast, with Nicole Kidman playing the lead role of Gertrude Bell and an amazing supporting cast that includes Damian Lewis (Homeland), Robert Pattinson (Twilight) and many others.

It’s been a pleasure to liaise with Werner Herzog on the artistic goals of the scene I am working on, he is one in a million. A lot will be said about this film and I am really looking forward to watch the completed feature, which will be released in 2015.
