Camera Operator for Hire
Blackmagic URSA 12K, BMPCC 6K, and Sony A7 IV — all own kit, no rental costs on your end. Available for agency shoots, production company bookings, and directed productions UK-wide. Clean rushes, experienced operator, Ltd company invoicing. £995/day.
Camera Package
Three camera bodies, cinema prime glass, and a full lighting package. Everything travels with the operator — no separate kit hire invoice for your agency or production company. One booking, one day rate.
Working With Me
On a directed shoot, the operator's job is to execute the brief without adding friction. Here's how that works in practice.
On directed shoots, my job is to execute the brief, not contribute to it uninvited. I read shot lists in pre-production, arrive knowing the brief, and make the necessary decisions without needing constant input.
The full Aperture lighting package comes on every shoot. I work to the gaffer's direction or, where there's no gaffer, set and adjust light to match the director's visual reference.
Clean metadata, organised folder structure, delivered promptly. No chasing, no resends. A post team that receives well-organised rushes works faster and produces better output.
For shoots also needing aerial, all four drone systems are available. I can operate ground camera and drone within the same day — no second operator for straightforward aerial.
Portfolio
Commercial, brand, and agency work across the UK — directed productions and single-operator briefs.
FAQ
Common questions about booking a camera operator and how the package works.
Yes. For agency and production company briefs I work as camera operator — executing the brief, managing camera and light, delivering clean rushes. Creative decisions are the director's.
URSA 12K as primary, BMPCC 6K as second, Sony A7 IV for stills or flexible video. Full cinema prime glass. Full Aperture lighting. All included in the day rate.
Yes. Multi-day rates available for longer productions. Get in touch with the shoot schedule and I'll come back with availability and rate.
Yes. I'm comfortable in a larger crew structure — taking lighting direction from a gaffer, feeding into an existing post workflow, working alongside a focus puller or sound recordist.
