Pioneer Videography LLC was started in 2008 and is a solely owned video production company based in Austin, TX. Below is a word from the founder.

“My name is Ben Hamilton and I am a natural history filmmaker. I travel the world, love the outdoors, and am infatuated with wildlife. Everyday in the field is a new learning experience and I strive to capture and share the majesty of our planet. I work part time as a freelance Cameraman, AC, and AE and spend the rest of my time working as Pioneer Videography in partnerships with conservation organizations. I work on everything from documentaries and television to commercial work and give my 100% every second of the way. I love to hear new project ideas and always enjoy getting involved with new and exciting organizations. Contact me about your next big project idea!”
