Sydney-based cinematographer drawn to stories that live between the sacred and the everyday. His work moves from Digital to 16mm, air to ground, documentary to fiction — always chasing the light that makes something ordinary feel unrepeatable.
Recent feature work includes Carnal Vessels, with credits on international productions like Ticket to Paradise, Kong vs Godzilla 2 and Boy Swallows Universe.
Elliott’s aerial and field cinematography blur the line between observation and participation — cameras strapped to helicopters, surfboards, and sometimes himself. Ten years behind the lens, and still chasing that first hit of golden light on a dark horizon.
Influences drift from Monet’s obsession with light to Salgado’s human scale and Nykvist’s quiet discipline — artists who made beauty feel inevitable.

Once accidentally hit Kylie Minogue in the head with a c-stand. Feel free to ask me about that one.
