The following year, he was Oscar®-nominated for his work on the period thriller "The Prestige." He received his most recent nod for his cinematography on Nolan's 2008 record-breaking blockbuster "The Dark Knight."
Pfister had earlier received an Independent Spirit Award for his work on Nolan's compelling drama "Memento," which marked their first collaboration. He also lensed the director's 2002 thriller "Insomnia."
His additional film credits include "The Italian Job," directed by F. Gary Gray, and the independent features "Slow Burn," "Laurel Canyon," "Scotland, PA," and "The Hi-Line," for which he won the Moxie! Award for Best Cinematographer at the Santa Monica Film Festival. For the small screen, Pfister served as the cinematographer on such telefilms as "Sanctuary," "Sharing the Secret," "Breakfast with Einstein," "Rhapsody in Bloom" and "Sketch Artist."
