I have been fortunate to have worked with Chris for over ten years now across a variety of different projects, formats, locations and teams. Chris's work speaks for itself, not only does he have all the kit needed to make a successful shoot he is also an amazing addition to the team, willing to always go above and beyond and happy to help whenever needed. I am fortunate to have got to know Chris extremely well after long stints on the road and not only found him as a the best soundo in the biz but also a great mate! – Hayden Quinn
