What three words would you use to describe your business?
Fun, Exciting & Cinematic
What’s your biggest business highlight to date?
We are lucky enough to have been a part of many amazing events, not just weddings! Our main business highlight is definitely travelling to South Korea with Mastercard to work with them on producing content around an Esports event taking place out there! However, saying that, we love working on weddings, being a part of a couple's dream day and helping them relive that for years to come is so special and one of the many perks of the job!
What top tips would you give someone organising their event or wedding?
Planning wise, just enjoy the process and take your time, picking suppliers you really gel with makes a massive difference especially when you spend so much time with them around on your wedding day!
What do you like best about being a wedding videographer?
Personally, shooting weddings is my favourite job to do, every time I'm at a wedding I have to pinch myself to realise how far I've come. This truly really is my dream job and I'm so lucky and privileged to do it, I love every second of it.
What are the most popular shots people ask for at weddings?
As a Videographer I don't really get requested shots unless there is something special on the table layouts or bridesmaids are doing a first look at the bride for example, but I always get compliments on getting shots of those little details that the couple don't realise is going on during the day because they're so busy going around talking to everyone!
What are your favourite moments to capture on a wedding day?
Everybody loves a slow-mo kiss shot don't they! But something I always try to do is take the couple out to a really nice location around the venue and almost get them to re-enact their first dance, it looks super cinematic and super cute and I love those types of shots!
How would you describe your style?
We try to blend in as much as possible so people don't notice us filming, then we get the natural shots (harder than you think carrying around a camera rig). I always try to just get as natural looking shots as possible!
