Behind the Lens
I’m Lleyton Lewis, a filmmaker and photographer based in Toronto focused on visual storytelling, narrative shorts, and portrait photography.
Background & Approach
My work centers around atmosphere, emotion, and intentional composition. Whether shooting a short film or capturing still portraiture, I focus on building distinct visual moods through light, color, and natural movement.
Working across both digital cinema setups and analog 35mm film, I bring a hands-on approach to every stage of production—from early concept development and lighting on set to fine-tuning the final color grade.
