Pricing & Investment

Self-shooting DP with full Sony FX cinema kit, lighting and sound. High-speed raw footage delivery. Perfect for agencies and production teams who already have an editor.

MOST POPULAR FOR BRANDS

CORPORATE & PROMO

£1,400-£5,000

BRAND FILM

£3,000-£10,000+

In-depth story development, multi-location shooting and full post. The film you build a brand around, not the one you replace next quarter.

High-touch production requires dedicated focus. Rather than running a high-volume studio, I take on a select number of productions each year to guarantee every film gets the craft it demands.

Freelance Videography FAQs

What areas in Scotland do you cover, and do you charge travel?

We are based in Edinburgh and regularly film across Glasgow, the Central Belt, Fife, Stirling, Dundee, Aberdeen, the Highlands, and the Islands. Travel expenses within Edinburgh are included. For travel across Scotland, expenses are quoted transparently upfront with zero hidden markups.

Can you provide full editing and post-production, or is it filming only?

We offer both! For agencies and production companies with an in-house editing team, we deliver clean, organised raw footage (Sony Log 10-bit) on hard drive or secure cloud link. For brands and businesses needing a finished marketing video, we handle the entire edit, sound design, licensed music, color grading, and subtitles ready for web and social.

What camera and audio equipment do you bring to a shoot?

Every shoot includes a complete professional production package: Sony FX cinema cameras (4K 10-bit up to 120fps), fast cinema zoom and prime lenses, wireless lavalier and boom microphones (Sennheiser/Rode), bi-color LED lighting panels with softboxes, and gimbal stabilization. There are no separate equipment rental fees added to your day rate.

Can you work white-label on behalf of our agency or production company?

Absolutely. We frequently represent London, UK-wide, and international agencies on location in Scotland. We arrive dressed professionally, communicate with your clients under your brand identity, follow your director's brief meticulously, and maintain strict confidentiality (NDAs signed upon request).

What are your rates and minimum booking fees?

Freelance filming starts from £650 for a standard shoot day including core equipment. Full turn-key video productions typically range between £1,400 and £5,000+. We do not take on unpaid 'exposure' work or ultra low-budget micro-shoots, which ensures our clients receive 100% focused attention, reliability, and broadcast-grade quality.

How quickly can you be on location, and how fast is footage delivered?

We can often accommodate tight deadlines or short-notice bookings in Edinburgh and the Central Belt depending on diary availability. For filming-only projects, raw footage is backed up immediately and delivered digitally via high-speed transfer within 24 to 48 hours post-wrap.
