Caleb Graham is a Director and Cinematographer based in Sydney, Australia. Inspired by the landscapes and stories of the small towns where he grew up, he makes character-driven documentaries about resilience, mental health, identity, and the environment.

His debut feature as sole director, Beyond the Break - the story of world champion para-surfer Joel Taylor - screened at Cinefest Oz, the Byron Bay Film Festival, and Doc.Sydney, collecting several Best Documentary awards and a nomination for the David Stratton Best Documentary Award. Screen Inc has since signed on as distributor, with a streaming release on a major Australian platform set for late 2026.

Caleb is currently engaged as Director/DOP of ‘The Rebuild’ - an exciting 10-episode (and counting), YouTube-first documentary series for Sutherland Sharks FC that helped make them the most subscribed sports team on YouTube in Australia. It's the same instinct for character and story, built for how modern audiences actually watch.

Earlier work laid the groundwork: the 2021 feature Green is the New Black, which he co-directed, shot, and edited, played international festivals and now streams on Docplay and Apple TV; and his shorts Blue and Gold (premiered at Byron Bay Film Festival, acquired by SBS On Demand) and Awake, both awarded Gold ACS Awards for Cinematography.

Fifteen years into his career, Caleb works as both Cinematographer and Director. An active member of the Australian Cinematographers Society and a multiple ACS Award winner, he continues to shoot at a senior level across commercial and branded projects.

 

I acknowledge the Gadigal and Wangal People of the Eora Nation, the traditional custodians of the lands where I live, learn and work.

I recognise and am inspired by the original storytellers, and their continued connection to land, water, sky and community.

Always was, always will be.
