Captured the wedding vibes perfectly

We found Ben after months of searching for someone who would match the kind of energy we wanted on our wedding day. When we saw all the incredible outdoorsy footage he'd previously captured, we knew we'd found our guy!

Ben was so professional and kind throughout the lead up, having a call and chatting through our plans to make sure we got what we wanted from the video, and helping think of things we hadn't even considered. He even attended our run through the day before, giving pointers for the wedding party.

During the wedding day he was everywhere, without being obvious, he fit right in and got absolutely gorgeous footage not only of the very emotional ceremony, but also the high energy party that came after it.

Both the photos and the videos have been so beyond what we could have imagined, I can't really believe it's us! They are incredible. And having the moments caught on video really feels like we can relive it again and again. Thank you so much.

Love, Mr & Mrs Almaas-Jacobsson

The best decision we ever made

The best decision we made for our wedding was booking Ben!! If we did our wedding all over again, we would call Ben to find out when he was available, and honestly book it all around him! Wow, he created the most magical film for us that really captured all the fun and love from the day. Ben went above and beyond, he filmed soo much and managed to get everything into a perfect highlights video which was edited beyond my wildest dreams. His drone footage as well was absolutely incredible!! Besides the actual film itself, in the build up to our wedding Ben was the only person who actually sat and went through the day with me to figure out how it would go and where he needed to be. This was helpful in so many ways and really made me feel safe that he cared about the wedding as much as we did and that he was going to look after our precious memories. On the day itself, Ben was a calm breath of fresh air in all the moments that could have been stressful. He was so calming in the room, he was perfect whilst also being in the background like you’d never know he was there in the best way. My husband was so anxious to be filmed in his speech, but Ben made sure without even having to say much at all that he was put at ease and completely looked after. You think on the day you’ll never forget how you felt, that the amazing feeling of love and happiness will never leave you - but you slowly forget it! Bens video absolutely brought all of those feelings back for us, and every single penny was worth it for that (in fact I’d pay double!!). If you’re questioning whether to get a videographer please please do it and please book Ben! Photographs are amazing, but you will never get the true feeling of the day without a video, and Ben just does that the best! Thank you Ben, we will treasure our videos for life!
