Denis was born in Glasgow. He studied graphic design at Glasgow school of Art before attending the National Film and Television School in Beaconsfield to pursue his interest in cinematography.

“As a kid, I was taken to the cinema every week, so I saw a lot of movies. As I got older I became interested in how they were photographed, how they achieved a visual style and who had filmed them….Cinematographers such as Vilmos Zsigmond and Gordon Willis”
