Frequently Asked Questions
Although I’m sure your wedding photos will be amazing, I feel photographs can only show so much. To capture the true feeling and story of the day, a professionally filmed and edited video is definitely the way to do it.
Something you can keep hold of for years to come and sit down and re-live your big day is extremely special. Many of my happy couples have informed me that their day goes by in such a blur, that the wedding video allows them to see it all unfold time and time again as if it were yesterday.
For the full wedding video I ask that you provide me with 6-8 of your favourite songs for me to use. However, I can’t guarantee all will be used, but I will try my best!
For the trailer I have to use licensed music so that it can be used online. This is chosen by me and I will always try my best to choose that perfect bit of music that works well with the video.
As all weddings are different, the length of your video can vary. Most will last between 45 – 90 minutes for the full feature video and between 2-5 minutes for the trailer.
I most certainly am! You can never be too cautious which is why I’m fully insured to film your important day. I have £5 Million Public Liability, Public Indemnity and fully insured equipment.
I pride myself on capturing the day as naturally as it happens so try to be as inconspicuous as possible. Although I use professional equipment you won’t find me sticking a camera in your face or interrupting you or your guests as you enjoy your day.
I love a bit of tech and pride myself on my equipment. I use a combination of Panasonic Cameras and also use professional tripods, and audio recording equipment.
This is the part that most people normally forget about; the amount of hours and thought that goes in to producing a polished and professional video that you are proud to show everyone. I use Final Cut Pro X to edit my videos and editing can sometimes be in excess of 50 hours to get to the final product (not because our work needs lots of editing, but more because I’m a bit of a perfectionist and like to get everything right.) To create a flowing video that is a joy to watch I edit to the music, therefore we ask for your music choices before we begin editing.
Although I’m based in Hertfordshire, I cover all parts of the country. An extra fee may be included to cover the extra fuel costs but I’m happy to travel wherever you want me to!
Of course you can! I’m always happy to meet my couples before the big day and I recommend around 30 days before your wedding is best, that way you will know more of the finalised plans and all the little touches you want captured. If you’re a bit of a distance away then a video call is also a fantastic option too!
I strive to produce visually beautiful, dynamic and emotional videos from your wedding day. I often get a bit bored of seeing so many wedding videos with a couple of cameras stuck on tripods and some random music dropped over the top. I use lots of movement to capture beautiful and dynamic shots. I believe that anyone can use a camera and get decent footage, but to have the artistic eye and attention to detail that allows a piece to really come together in the editing suite is something different. I believe that’s something I have and if you book me for your wedding day I promise to show I we do!
Not a problem at all, just send over a contact form with any additional queries and I’ll be happy to help!
