About Directors of Photography
A Director of Photography (DP) is the creative and technical leader behind every frame of your video production. Assignment Desk employs over 20 full-time, W2-employed DPs stationed across 24 US markets — each equipped with their own broadcast-quality camera, lighting, and audio packages. Our DPs bring decades of combined experience shooting for networks like ESPN, HGTV, HBO, CNN, and NFL Films, delivering cinematic quality on corporate, sports, documentary, and commercial productions. Unlike freelance camera operators, our Directors of Photography own and maintain professional equipment packages valued at over $100,000 each. They arrive on set ready to shoot with Sony FX9s, RED Komodos, ARRI cameras, professional lighting kits, wireless audio systems, and grip gear. This eliminates the need for separate equipment rentals and ensures consistent, broadcast-ready results on every project. Whether you need a single DP for a corporate interview or a full production team for a multi-day shoot, Assignment Desk matches you with the right Director of Photography based on your location, budget, and creative requirements. Same-day bookings are often available through our nationwide staff crew network.
