About me
I'm a Budapest-based cinematographer with a deep passion for visual storytelling. Over the years, I've had the privilege of working on a wide range of projects, from intimate indie films to award-winning features. My journey in cinematography has been shaped by a strong academic background, including a Doctor of Liberal Arts degree from the University of Theatre and Film Arts in Budapest, where I explored the Dramaturgy of Colors in Movies.
My work has been recognized at international film festivals, earning awards for Best Cinematography in Boston, Tel Aviv, and Hungary, among others. Some of my notable projects include Deva, Curtiz, Six Weeks, and All About the Lefkovicses. I’m always drawn to stories that challenge visual conventions and push the boundaries of how emotion is conveyed through the lens.
My experience includes serving as Second Unit Director of Photography on exciting features like Blade Runner 2049, The Kollektiv, The Story of My Wife, and Jupiter's Moon.
When I'm not on set, I'm spending time with my wife and our two wonderful girls, playing, laughing, and seeing the world through their eyes. Traveling as a family is a constant source of inspiration, always sparking new ideas and perspectives that find their way into my work.
