Frequently Asked Questions
-
I offer two main packages: A highlight film (3-5mn wedding film), and Feature film (15-20mn film). You can also choose to have the Highlight, or Feature film on their own.
Regardless of the option you select, I always cover the full wedding day, from start to finish. No hidden extras.
As well as this, I also offer additional films or extras, such as Trailer films, Instagram Reels the day after your wedding, speeches and ceremony. For more information on pricing, head over to my Pricing page.

As a professional wedding videographer, my sole focus on the day is to capture quality footage. For this reason, I only provide wedding films.
However, for photo and film packages, I partner with an editorial wedding photographer to offer discounted packages across wedding photography and videography. Head over to my photo and film page here for more info.
-
Yes. I offer discounts on my film packages for weddings happening weekdays or in the winter. Contact me for more info.

As a UK-based destination wedding videographer, I absolutely love to film weddings abroad. I love to travel, and my rates are the same regardless of the location. I do not charge extra, whether you’re considering a destination wedding in France, Italy, Spain or anywhere else around the world.
Travel expenses will need to be quoted separately, but if you have already been to a specific location and would like to offer suggestions on where to stay, I will follow your lead!
-
Yes, whenever possible. I always aim to capture the bride walking down the aisle, typically filmed from over the shoulder of the groom.
However, this is dependent on specific locations: I am sometimes limited by rules imposed by registrars, ministers and venue management as to what can and cannot be done (e.g. some ministers insist that no videography is allowed during the service, and others will insist that the videographer shoot from a specific location).
-
I always carefully curate licensed, royalty-free music to add to your film. This is part of my creative process for each wedding, and the music I pick for your film will be based on the story that needs to be told.
If you feel strongly about me using a specific song, then this is something we can discuss together, of course. But please note I am unable to use a song if it hasn’t been licensed and rights obtained from the artist.
-
You don’t need to pose on your wedding day, unless you want to, of course. Everything I do is off script, and I don’t direct anything on the day. Some of my couples are specific about what they want me to include in their wedding films: this can drone footage of the location, or a car they have hired for the day. Or a specific shot of the two of them. Either way, all of your suggestions can be worked into your wedding film. It’s a collaboration.
But if you don’t want to pose, then that is fine too, and will suit my documentary style.
-
I have small voice recorders that I carry with me, and that I will clip on to the speakers on the day. For example, before the ceremony, I will attach one to the registrar or minister, and one to the groom, as well as anyone else doing a reading.
Same applies to the speeches, so that I can record the best possible sound.
-
Drone footage is included in all my films and packages, regardless of the package you’re selecting. As a cinematic wedding videographer, I find it important to tell your story from a different perspective, and this includes aerial footage.
For more information about aerial shots on your wedding day, head over to my drone wedding videography page.
-
Most wedding films are delivered within 12-14 weeks. During peak season, this may take a little longer, but I will only ever send your wedding film once I’m fully happy with it and I know I’ve done your special day justice.
-
Only the first 20% deposit is due at the time of booking, to secure the day. The rest of the monies isn’t due until 30 days before your wedding.
