Sean has over 20 years experience working as a director in the film industry. His work has spanned films, documentary, music videos and more recently photography. 

When it comes to photography Sean is always striving to layer story, personality, composition and a point of view into each frame. His portrait photography aims to find the idiosyncratic, compelling and beautiful. He has photographed many beloved Australian filmmakers including Wayne Blair (The Sapphires), PJ Hogan (Muriel’s Wedding), Angie Fielder (Lion), Ben Young (Hounds of Love), Stephen Lance and YouTube comedy stars Crackermilk. Sean’s documentary photography of the Black Lives Matter rallies was short listed in the 2020 Australian Photography Awards. 

He's directed over 40 music videos for many of Australia’s (and a few of NZ's) most acclaimed and iconic musicians including Missy Higgins, Silverchair, The Birds of Tokyo, Gin Wigmore, Busby Marou, The Sleepy Jackson, The Living End, Kasey Chambers and Tim Finn. 

His films have won accolades and screened widely. The Baby Whisperer, premiered at Screamfest LA and Flickerfest before hitting the festival circuit and screening internationally. His feature documentary Fantome Island, premiered at The Brisbane International Film Festival and won Best Australian Film at the Human Rights, Arts and Film Festival. It screens regularly on NITV and is frequently streamable via SBS On Demand.

Sean’s work, whether photography or film, is always driven by story and the most creative way to tell a story and communicate emotional energy to an audience hungry to connect. He infuses his work with a distinct visual identity and when possible a sly sense of humour.

Sean lives in Brisbane where he also shares his wealth of experience at the Griffith University Film School and The Queensland School of Film & Television, lecturing in directing, and mentoring film productions from script development through to post-production.
