“Where History Takes Flight”

Cinematic storytelling through photo and film — crafted for vintage aircraft restorers, rotary aviation, and airshows across the UK.

My Story

Telling Aviation Stories with Soul

Every aircraft tells a story — not just in the air, but in the hours, years, and decades behind it.

I started CptSpitfire to honour those stories. From the fire-breathing roar of a Merlin engine to the rhythmic clatter of rotor blades in the dawn light, my mission is to capture the spirit, sweat, and soul behind every flying machine.

As a helicopter engineer, I understand aircraft beyond the surface — their quirks, their scars, the hands that keep them alive. As a filmmaker, I frame them with the cinematic weight they deserve — like characters in a war film or heroes in a forgotten archive reel.

Whether it's a Spitfire being wheeled out for its first post-restoration flight, or the methodical precision of hangar life, I bring a lens that respects both legacy and engineering.

This isn’t just aviation content — this is a visual tribute to everything that keeps our history flying.

Live from the Hangar

A glimpse into my latest cinematic shoots and stories from the skies.

Engineer by Trade. Storyteller by Passion.

I’m not just here to film aircraft — I’m here to honour them. With a background in helicopter engineering and a love for storytelling, I bring a rare mix of technical understanding and cinematic flair to every project.
Whether you're organising an airshow or restoring a warbird, you need someone who can blend into your environment, respect the machines, and capture their presence with precision. My goal is simple: to turn your aircraft into a story worth watching again and again.

Aviation Trained

As a working helicopter engineer, I understand aircraft beyond the surface — capturing technical detail and operational authenticity others miss.

Cinematic Storytelling

Every shot is crafted like a scene from a film — using movement, lighting, and sound to honour the legacy and presence of each aircraft.

UK-Wide & Low-Impact

I offer flexible, mobile coverage across the UK with minimal disruption to your hangar, restoration space, or airshow schedule.

Instagram Follower

I’ve followed aviation content for years, but your videos genuinely feel like mini documentaries. The way you capture the atmosphere, engine sounds, and editing is just next level. It’s not just content — it’s art.

Let’s Bring Your Aircraft to Life on Screen

I’m currently working with a limited number of airshows, restoration hangars, and collectors.
