"I’m a Toronto-based cinematographer with over 15 years of experience shooting narrative film, commercials, branded content, and documentaries. I focus on building visuals that feel intentional and lived-in—rooted in strong lighting, thoughtful composition, and purposeful camera movement. Collaboration sits at the center of my process. I work closely with directors and creative teams to turn scripts into a clear visual language, whether that means finding quiet, naturalistic moments or designing more stylized, dynamic sequences. I’m fluent with Sony, Canon, ARRI, and RED systems and move comfortably between traditional and digital workflows. I’ve learned to adapt quickly across genres, locations, and budgets without sacrificing quality or efficiency. My work has screened at independent festivals and lived on major digital platforms, but I still treat every project as a chance to refine the craft and find something honest in the frame. Cinematography is the way I make stories land. I’m always looking for the next project where the visuals can carry real weight." Read more about Chris Mierzwinski…
"With a strong background in lighting for small to medium scale productions, I have a strong understanding of what it takes to achieve a desired look, and my experience with Davinci Resolve gives me insight for what’s best done on set, and what can be saved for the grade. Even on a time crunch, I focus on lighting spaces, not faces. My attention to detail goes beyond lighting, with a good eye for composition and an even keener one for focus. As a camera assistant I am aways thinking ahead, and am proactive to avoid unnecessary slowdowns to ensure the camera team doesn’t have to choose between the shot they want, and the shot they have time for."
