Request QuoteI am English, I live in Copenhagen, and I am a freelance journalist. I shoot video primarily for the Associated Press news agency, AJ+ and Pear Video. I worked as a producer for the AP in London for five years before moving to Denmark in 2015. I shoot news stories and features, and use a Canon XF205 camcorder and a Canon 5D MkII DSLR. I've also written for the New York Times, the Guardian, the Financial Times, and others, and I'm the food editor of The Murmur – Denmark's English-language newspaper.

James was very communicative and on top of this story throughout the pre-production and shooting process. He followed instructions carefully, and he delivered exactly the footage that we’d discussed, plus some extra shots and angles for good measure.

James was wonderfully communicative and diligent throughout the process of making this video. He has a knack for finding a good story, and I'd be glad to work with him again.
