About

The eye behind Shotbyogv.

Carlos Takudzwa: hybrid visual creator, mobile + camera, based in Harare and booked worldwide.

How it started

"Believe it or not, I started with a Samsung Galaxy Ace."

No 4K, no cinematic mode, no crazy camera setup. Just pure passion, creativity and the hunger to create something special. That simple phone turned into the beginning of the whole creative journey, and into Shotbyogv.

Today the kit is a mix: a full camera rig for weddings, stages and editorials, and a phone on a gimbal when a shoot needs to move fast and light. The approach hasn't changed: your gear doesn't define your talent. Your vision does.

Wedding & event visual storyteller: weddings, roora, events and decor. "Your moments. Beautifully documented."
