Professional Videography & Photography in Stafford

About Me

Hey there! I'm Jonny – a filmmaker and photographer who's spent the last 14 years with a camera in hand, capturing stories across Stafford and beyond. While my DMI qualification gives me the technical foundation, it's my love for finding those genuine, unscripted moments that really defines my work.

Stafford has become something of a second home for me. There's a certain magic to filming here – maybe it's the way sunlight filters through the ancient trees at Cannock Chase, or how the cobblestones in the historic center catch the evening light. I've come to know its hidden corners and best angles through countless projects over the years.

My camera has taken me to some pretty cool places – from directing Christmas commercials for Sky TV to capturing behind-the-scenes moments with Shia LaBeouf during filming of "Salvable." I've worked with talents like Maimuna Enya Memon, Nina Wadia, and even spent time shooting with Rio Ferdinand at Old Trafford. But honestly? I get just as excited about filming a local business owner talking about their passion or capturing a couple's first dance at Weston Hall.

I bring my trusty Canon C300 Mark III and C70 cameras to every project – gear that delivers that cinematic quality without turning me into an intimidating presence at intimate events. When I'm not filming, you'll likely find me walking my golden retriever Jess along the River Sow, probably daydreaming about creative angles for whatever project is coming up next.

What I Offer in Stafford

Stafford gives us such an incredible mix to work with – Norman castle ruins, Victorian architecture, and those gorgeous green spaces. Here's how we might work together:

History Brought to Life: From the towering remains of Stafford Castle to the timber-framed Ancient High House (England's largest timber-framed townhouse, by the way), Stafford's rich history provides some extraordinary backdrops. Having spent hours filming in these locations, I know exactly when the light hits them just right and how to capture their character in a way that enhances whatever story we're telling.

Business Stories That Connect: Whether you run a quirky independent shop in the town center or a tech company at Staffordshire Technology Park, I'll help create content that actually feels like you – not some generic corporate template. We'll dig into what makes your business different and translate that authentic personality to the screen.

Weddings & Celebrations: Stafford has some stunning venues – The Moat House sitting by the water, dramatic Stafford Castle on its hill, or the elegant Weston Hall surrounded by countryside. I blend into the background (guests often mistake me for a friend with a nice camera), capturing those natural moments while making sure nothing important is missed.

Fitness & Sports Stories: With Stafford's thriving fitness scene and facilities like Stafford Leisure Centre, I've developed a specialty in creating dynamic content for gyms, personal trainers, and local sports teams. Movement requires a different approach to filming, and I love the challenge of capturing both the energy and results of physical training.

The Difference in My Approach

Having filmed everything from dawn at Cannock Chase to sunset in Victoria Park, I've built up the kind of local knowledge that only comes from spending real time in a place[6]. I know which locations work beautifully in different seasons and how to navigate the quirks each setting presents.

But clients seem to value my approach as much as my technical skills. I believe people look their best on camera when they feel comfortable and forget I'm even there. I focus on creating a relaxed experience while still maintaining professional standards. No awkward posing or stilted corporate speak – just natural, authentic content that captures what makes each project special.

Some Recent Local Projects

Last month, I spent several days with a family-run business in the heart of Stafford, creating a series of short films that told their story from its founding to today. Rather than just showcasing their products, we focused on the people and craft behind them – the early morning preparations, the relationships with local suppliers, the regular customers who've been coming for years. The resulting content has connected with viewers in a way catalog-style photos never could.

I also filmed a wedding at Weston Hall that combined sweeping drone shots of the countryside setting with those intimate, unplanned moments throughout the day. My favorite clip was the bride's grandmother tearing up during the ceremony – a tiny moment that became one of the most meaningful parts of their film.

A Note from the Author

There's something about Stafford that keeps drawing me back – perhaps it's the way the evening light catches the stonework of St. Mary's Church, or how the castle stands sentinel as you approach town. After countless hours filming across this area, I've developed not just technical knowledge but a genuine fondness for its character and community.

Let's grab a coffee somewhere local and talk about creating something that truly feels like Stafford.
