READ CAPTION: 2024 was the year I turned a lifelong hobby into a career. After swapping my full time office job, for a full time role as a video editor, and then finding out there was a lack of work after a few months meaning we all got let go; I was pushed into the scary but rewarding world of freelancing. And it’s been the best thing to happen in my career so far. I’ve been incredibly lucky to meet some amazing people who’ve made this journey so much smoother. In particular, I have to give a massive shoutout to @ellisdeaves . Your advice, encouragement, and support have been invaluable throughout! Can't thank you enough for always being there when I needed it and even passing on my details to people. Freelancing has opened doors to so many different industries, but my favourite part has been meeting incredible people along the way. I'd also like to give a special shoutout to @andydtwy , @loooux , @mollybmcd , @edursion , @jordan.mp4__ , @60lenz and @benbrady_ . You've all given me invaluable tips and advice, thank you! And last but not least, my biggest supporter who always encourages me to pursue and grow in this world, @becky__sb ! Here's to reflecting on a incredible journey so far with a mini recap of the year. If you like what you see and think I could help your business grow, please don’t hesitate to get in touch! #Freelancer #contentcreatorlondon #freelancinglife #digitalnomad #freelancework #selfemployed #videoeditor #creativefreelancer #videographer #smallbusinesssupport #growyourbusiness #freelancesupport #ukvideographer #passiontocareer #yearinreview #supportsmallcreators

This showreel might look like a bit of a name drop…and yeah there are some familiar faces in there! But this is really just a snapshot of the talking-head work I’ve been lucky enough to shoot over the past year - multicam setups, junkets, red carpets, podcasts, and everything in between. Just to be clear, I don’t only shoot famous faces. These clips are examples of the craft, such as, lighting, sound, framing, storytelling, editing...not a requirement for who you need to be. Right now, I’m looking to work more closely with businesses, founders, teams and brands who want their websites, youtube channels and socials to feel more human, more polished, and more 'them'. If you’ve got something to say and want it to look (and sound) great, give me a shout.

Wish I could say something really profound about this experience but in all honesty, I could not wait to get back on the ground. Nice to look back on though. One for the books. 🇱🇦

What happens when you put loads of young people in a room and ask them about digital wellbeing? In short: some pretty epic results! We are still absolutely buzzing after the Youth Town Hall last week, our fully youth-led event hosted by the FlippGen Digital Rebels, in collaboration with @5rightsfound @scitechgovuk and Lush! Here are some of the highlights and key takeaways from the day. A massive thank you to @jaaf.mp4 for capturing the event so perfectly!

Back in April 2025, @megabeatt and I hopped on the cameras to film the Sinners junket for @cosmopolitanuk 🎥 🎬 Who knew that one year later @michaelbjordan would win an Oscar for his performance in Sinners, and the film would rake in four Oscars on top of that...🏆 From left to right @haileesteinfeld , @michaelbjordan , Jack O'Connell and @wunmimosaku . Featuring a horrible curtain for a back drop. Watch the full junket on Cosmopolitan UK's youtube channel.
