Earth From Space

BBC | Camera Operator & Producer

How do you tell the story of a planet in constant motion?

For BBC’s Earth From Space, I worked as a camera operator and field producer on two segments that explored the power and scale of natural phenomena from the ground up. While satellites revealed sweeping patterns across the Earth's surface, our role was to capture the human perspective inside those extraordinary moments. The series combines satellite imagery with ground-based filmmaking to reveal the movements, patterns, and changes shaping our planet.

To document wildfire, I spent weeks embedded on the fire line, filming the intensity of active burns and the crews working within rapidly changing conditions. Later that year, I climbed the Grand Teton to capture the total solar eclipse from one of North America's most iconic peaks. Reaching the summit with a full camera package required careful planning, and the narrow window of totality left little room for error.

Whether filming wildfire or standing above the clouds as the moon's shadow swept across the landscape, the goal remained the same: to place viewers inside moments that are both fleeting and profoundly transformative. Together, those stories became part of Life from Above, a series that reveals our changing planet from perspectives both vast and deeply personal.
