Director of Photography
Thomas Chandler
Hi, I’m a Director of Photography based in San Jose with over 35 years of experience. My professional journey began in still photography but quickly transitioned to film and video production. While most of my work is in corporate video, I’ve also shot documentaries for NGOs, broadcast programs, independent features, short films, and the occasional commercial.
I’m equally at home on a soundstage or in the field, and comfortable working with crews of any size. Over the years, I’ve been fortunate to work around the world with some incredible people who have brought valuable contributions to each project. Below is a sampling of my clients and credits.
