Barbara is a Dutch cinematographer, based in London and with an unusual background that began with acting in theatre. 

​

She then continued on to study cinematography first at the Met Film School and afterwards at the prestigious National Film and Television School, both based in the UK. 

​

Barbara has currently been working in the UK film industry for 15 years. She shot many a short film (several of which have won many awards), and a wide range of music promos, documentaries and commercial content.

​

The short A Cup of Coffee with Marylin by Alessandra Gonnella has been developed into a Television series with Paramount. 

​

Another project to mention is Everything I Ever Wanted to Tell my Daughter about Men; a multi-director feature film (narrative) created by Lorien Haynes. Barbara shot a large part of this project, which was created in support of survivors of sexual abuse: "23 short films, 21 female directors, 1 movie feature to support survivors of sexual abuse."
