"I've worked with Simon for many years and he really is a first-class D.O.P. He's that rarest of things, a perfectionist who's super-fast and easy to get on with. He's always engaged with the story of what we're filming and always has something visually smart to suggest about how we film it. He brings the cinematic sensibility of drama to everything we shoot, which gives extra depth to actuality and interview."

"Simon is always my first call when I need a great cameraman. Having worked with him for many years now on projects for the BBC (Bang Goes the Theory and Worlds / Britain's Strongest Man) and Channel 4 (The Highlander Challenge), I know I can always rely on his can do attitude and attention to detail. He cares about what he is committing to tape and crafts his shots with thoughtful lighting and framing, whilst always aware of today's tight budgets and timeframes. He always goes the extra mile to make the shots the best he can and is a real asset to any shoot. Thoroughly recommended."

"Simon is one of those instinctive cameramen when it comes to comedy set ups, he's brilliantly flexible and helpful to work with, always enthusiastic and has a fabulous way with composition and an eye for what it going to bring something alive. I work with him whenever I can."

"Simon delivers splendid visuals. He's engaged on providing good work, suggesting shots, being part of the team and getting involved. He's always committed, hard working and energetic. His enthusiasm is infectious. I believe his overall camera work across the range is excellent. He's happy on a dolly, on a tripod or going hand held. I think his work is suitable for the main areas of drama, factual and entertainment. I heartily endorse his work ethic and the final results that he provides."

"Simon came highly recommended for the series 'Get a New Life'. As a reality series, each programme can rely quite heavily on the instincts and ability of the crew and Simon easily proved his worth. Not only was he a good cameraman with good flair and ideas, he was inventive in difficult situations, was excellent with the contributors and thought hard about trying to match my ideas with his. Futhermore, he proved very resourceful and effectively saved a shoot on one of the locations, re-wiring the camera to work with lighting batteries when our equipment was lost in flight."
