Vaughan Scott - Nelson-based Photographer & Videographer

Vaughan Scott is an award-winning cameraman. His career spans more than fifty years and has taken him all over the world. With a thirty-seven-year television background, that started in the black and white era, he has captured major world events in some of the most difficult locations. His visual storytelling abilities are exceptional and have stood him in good stead operating his own business these past fourteen years.

“As a television cameraman, I travelled to over 50 countries capturing stories of major world events. I experienced the slums of Kenya, the war-torn streets of Iraq, the devastating aftermath of both 911 and hurricane Katrina. I moved among the mourning crowds paying tribute to Princess Diana, the victorious crowds celebrating Obamas’ Presidential Election and a gun-fueled funeral parade for a martyr through Gaza city. Life experienced through the viewfinder has been the most rewarding and exciting career I could have hoped for.

What began as a teenager developed into a lifelong passion”.
