"I approached Bart because of his strikingly visual cinematography, utilising light and colour to create the richest and most beautiful cinematic imagery, which was precisely what we were looking for when it concerned our feature film. Bart works on an extremely high, professional level, living and breathing the project he is working on at that time. We were amazed by his commitment and dedication, a true master of his craft who is incredibly easy to communicate with and delivers the shots required on time and to the greatest standard. I'm very eager to work with him again."
Carl Strathie - Director “Solis” & “Dark Encounter”


“Bart is an outstanding DP who achieves amazing results whatever the circumstances. He's a pleasure to work with, always getting stand out images that tell powerful stories. When you go into a long shoot, he's just the guy to realise your creativity.”
Steve M Kelly - Director “The Bromley Boys”


“Working with Bart on Piercing Brightness really helped me up the ambition and cinematic texture of my new feature film. As the film was intended to mix styles from both experimental cinema and more mainstream film, we were able to use lighting effects and his very talented eye to create some astounding set-pieces, working effectively with both Digital and Super 16mm film. A very talented, hard-working, open and good-humoured Director of Photography.”
Shezad Dawood - Director “Piercing Brightness”, "Towards The Possible Film" & "Leviathan"
