DANIEL DUGMORE

I'm a wildlife cameraman and naturalist with over a 14 years of professional field experience across Africa and North America, specialising in premium natural history storytelling. My work combines deep ecological knowledge with high-level camera craft, operating a suite of camera systems and tech.

​

I have contributed to blue-chip and landmark wildlife productions for BBC, Sky Nature, ITV, National Geographic, and independent film companies, filming across a wide range of African ecosystems. I hold specialist knowledge of big cats, elephants, and birdlife, supported by extensive time in the field.

​

I'm currently based in Kenya and highly experienced in remote and logistically complex environments, bringing a calm, self-sufficient, and solutions-driven approach to fieldwork. My background also includes safari guiding, expedition leadership, and operational management in challenging conditions, enabling me to work effectively with producers, scientists, local communities, and crews while respecting cultural contexts and conservation priorities.

​

Technically versatile, I operate confidently across long-lens, drone, gimbal, time-lapse, and specialist camera systems, with strong situational awareness and an emphasis on ethical, behaviour-led wildlife filming. I am equally comfortable embedding for long-term shoots or supporting fast-moving, high-pressure productions.
