Christo Montes — Freelance Cameraman / Director of Photography

About

I am a highly experienced, award winning freelance cameraman / Director of Photography based in Auckland, New Zealand.

I have worked with a variety of clients, from independent producers to major broadcasters both locally and internationally. I specialise in broadcast work and have extensive experience working with some of the biggest names in the industry, like FIFA, TF1, BBC, CNN, ITV1 and CH7, to name only a few.

These days I mainly utilise a Sony FX6 camera kit and comprehensive lighting package, but also hire in gear as required.

For an updated list of my currently available kit please visit my gear list page .

Please feel free to get in touch and I’ll be happy to discuss your next project.
