CINEMATOGRAPHER & STEADICAM OPERATOR
Growing up in Cornwall, England, Kes was surrounded by its wild landscape, coastline and way of living. This energy has stayed with him through out his life, and continues to influence his creative work as a film maker.
After earning a BFA in Film Production from Falmouth College of Arts, Kes began developing original film projects in Cornwall. Following several years of travel and exploration, he relocated to Montreal, Canada, where he now works as a Director, Cinematographer, and Steadicam Operator.
Kes’s work spans narrative fiction, music videos, commercials, and experimental collaborations including dance films and other art-driven projects.
His career has taken him across the globe, with shoots in India, Ireland, France, Peru, and Indonesia. Deeply influenced by natural landscapes, diverse cultures, and human traditions, he brings a sensitive, grounded visual approach to every project. An active member of Montreal’s filmmaking community, Kes values authentic creative connection and is always seeking like-minded collaborators who share a similar visual and emotional language.
In addition to directing and cinematography, Kes is an experienced Steadicam and underwater camera operator. His passion for camera movement evolved naturally from a desire to move fluidly with story and subject. The ocean has always been close to his heart—he’s also a certified SCUBA instructor and a devoted explorer of the natural world, making underwater filmmaking a perfect blend of his artistic and personal passions.
