Available to hire
I’m Taylor Hogan, a Leeds-based filmmaker and photographer with hands-on experience across short films, commercials, and live events. Over the last eight years I’ve freelanced as a videographer and 2nd AD, coordinating crews, scouting locations, and producing media for social and promotional channels.
I love collaborating with creatives, planning shoots from storyboard to delivery, and helping brands tell their stories through moving images and photography. I’m always excited to take on new challenges, from festival shoots to corporate productions.
