About me.

My name is Hayden Plath. I’m a cinematographer based in Cape Town, South Africa. I have over a decade of experience bringing stories to life on both local and international productions. From music videos featuring South Africa's top artists, to high-end European clothing brands, my work spans a wide range of projects.

My passion is to create visually striking, emotive, and thought-provoking content that inspires meaningful change. I believe that film is one of the most powerful mediums to do so. With my BA in Motion Picture, I bring a solid foundation in the craft of filmmaking and an unwavering commitment to capturing the essence of a story.
