SAM HOCKLEY
Hello
I'm a London-based Shooting PD with a cinematic eye and a passion for storytelling. Experienced in observational documentary and branded content, I thrive in fast-paced environments, making informed narrative decisions on the fly. Skilled in self-shooting with Sony Cine and Nikon Z, I work seamlessly within large teams or independently, handling sensitive access, high-profile talent, and international shoots with confidence.
Let’s create something impactful together.

DARE TO HOPE
I had the privilege of directing and filming Dare to Hope, a documentary feature following fine art wildlife photographer Harry Skeggs on his journey to the frozen wilderness of Antarctica and South Georgia. His mission: to capture a breathtaking image of the region’s majestic wildlife while confronting the physical and emotional challenges of such an extreme, untamed landscape.
More than just a quest for the perfect shot, the film explores resilience, the human spirit, and our connection to the natural world. It’s a celebration of hope and the power of storytelling to drive change.
Now available to watch on WaterBear and Nikon’s YouTube channel
