Hi, I'm Jamie!

A studio camera operator and multiskilled production professional with a background in live TV and digital broadcasting. I’ve worked across a range of studio setups; from pedestals and handhelds to jibs and robotics. I’m just as comfortable behind a vision mixer as I am bringing breaking news to the nation.I’ve built my career on being adaptable, calm under pressure, and ready to jump in wherever I’m needed; whether that's live news, digital streams, or fast-turnaround studio shoots. This portfolio is a snapshot of the work I’ve done so far and the roles I’ve loved being a part of.
