About Ellie

I'm a dedicated freelance camera operator with a passion for bringing live action to audiences through precision camera work and technical excellence. Raw enthusiasm and love for this industry drives everything I do.

Graduated from Ravensbourne University with a degree in Television Production, my journey has taken me from the high-speed world of Ferrari Challenge motorsports at legendary circuits like Silverstone and Donnington Park, to dynamic live sports events like World Chase Tag, and into the polished world of corporate production.

I thrive in fast-paced environments where split-second decisions matter. Whether I'm tracking racing cars at 150mph, capturing the intensity of live sports, or delivering flawless corporate conference coverage, I bring the same dedication to technical excellence and creative vision.

Working with industry leaders like Chris Hartley Media, KAS Media, SoundCredit, and EMG has given me invaluable experience across broadcast, live events, and technical rigging. I'm equally comfortable operating a jib, programming PTZ presets, running cables across venues, or building and balancing broadcast cameras.
