Hey there, I’m Lee Pendle. I’m a Freelance Lighting Camera Operator and DoP.
Who I Am
I’m a Lighting Camera Operator and Director of Photography (DP) with over a decade of experience, freelancing since 2017. My passion lies in the craft of visual storytelling, and I’ve had the privilege of working with a wide range of cameras, from Sony to Arri Alexa, to bring captivating images to life.
What I Offer
I provide in-house, high-quality gear, including the Sony FX6, A7SIII, and a basic lighting package. My experience spans corporate work, music videos, motorsports, live events and various other projects. I’ve honed my skills in a variety of roles—whether working as a one-man self-shooter handling audio, lighting, and camera duties, or collaborating with larger teams as a camera operator and being a DoP, taking control of the visual direction and managing other camera operators.
Why Work With Me
I’m a safe pair of hands who has consistently delivered projects for production companies with minimal oversight. I’m committed to pushing for excellence in everything I do, ensuring that each project meets the highest standards. My kit pricing is more affordable than traditional rental houses, and I have most of the kit needed for standard productions.
My Values
I believe in delivering high-quality results—both in terms of gear and skill. I maintain professionalism at all times and, above all, strive to create a fun and collaborative environment to ensure every project is an enjoyable experience for everyone involved.
