Rachael thornton - DOcumentary Film Maker

I tell stories about people. It's my role to capture on camera the essence of being human.

Through my documentaries, I aim to amaze, shock and inspire; to challenge us to think outside our world and move us all to take responsibility as people who really do make a difference.

Shooting beautiful pictures is one of my favourite things in the world. Combine my camera with bold questions and raw conversations; that's how I tell a story.

I research, direct, shoot and edit all of my stories.

I travel with a small crew which gives me the flexibility to follow stories wherever and however they unfold. As both a director and a shooter I create an intimate space for the most precious and powerful moments to be captured on camera.
