About

On Hitched.co.uk since 2021

Last update: November 2024

As featured on my website, www.jamesdavidfilms.co.uk, I've had the honour of filming high-profile events, including Miss GB's wedding, and working alongside personalities like Ed Sheeran and Coleen Nolan. I’ve also been recognised with awards for my work!

My filming approach is discreet and cinematic. I use compact, silent cameras—no bulky rigs or obtrusive microphones—ensuring my gear never disrupts the beauty of your day. I blend seamlessly into the setting, dressing appropriately and capturing moments naturally without staging, directing, or making guests feel on camera. This allows me to focus on what truly matters: preserving your memories with natural light and authentic cinematic techniques.

Getting to know each couple is a joy for me. I love hearing your stories and capturing the essence of your wedding day. Every wedding has its own unique story, and I can’t wait to help tell yours.

James makes dreams come true

I’m not sure where to start other than i didn’t want working with James to end! From the intro call to the planning meeting, arriving on the day and delivering our special video, working with James has been nothing short of an absolute JOY!

James has the unique ability to be your fun and caring friend on your wedding day whilst still maintaining the highest level of professionalism professional, and not only that, he brings bags of enthusiasm and insane levels of talent. When James had finished shooting our day, we didn’t want him to leave!!

When we received our wedding video, we got to relive our day through the eyes of our guests and the love that was shared - we shed many tears! As my mum sobbed watching the video back she said “he’s captured the joy” - and he really did. I’ve wanted a wedding video since i was a little girl, and James has made that little girl’s dream come true. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, James. 🫶🏼 Love, Mr & Mrs Westerman

Reliving our dream

We cannot recommend James highly enough! From the moment he arrived, he went above and beyond to make not just us, but our bridal/groom party feel comfortable. James' professionalism and warm demeanour instantly put us both at ease, allowing us to enjoy our special day.
The way he captured every moment was nothing short of magical. The attention to detail and the creativity in the shots truly brought our wedding day to life in the most beautiful way. Watching the video feels like reliving the day all over again, with all the emotions and joy perfectly preserved.
Thank you James, for your incredible work and for making our wedding day unforgettable.
If you're looking for a wedding videographer who will exceed your expectations, look no further!

James was a true professional from start to finish, he guided us through the process completely stress free with a fun attitude and good vibes.

On the day James was unnoticeable yet perfectly in control of getting the best content to create such a beautiful video for us. All our guest mentioned how professional and relaxed James was.

Absolute Perfection

James is a super talented professional who really bonded with us from the start and understood exactly how we wanted things to look and feel on the day. Our vibe and personality was captured perfectly and the end results are fantastic. We didn’t even know he was there most of the time and he blended in so well. He’s so friendly and kind he felt like family. I would highly recommend James.

Exceptional!

There has not been a single person we have shown our wedding video to who has not been moved to tears! Jame’s attention to detail and ability to capture all those magical moments is unreal! He was able to encompass everything we were looking for in a video without even telling him much! He just knows!! James was also a pleasure to have on the day. He was super easy going and fun to hang out with….basically another guest! Don’t bother looking around for anyone else, just give him a call and you won’t regret it!!

Memories to last a lifetime

James created stunning footage of our day. The communication leading up to it was great and he was really flexible in his approach, happy to slot into the photographers timings. It’s so lovely to look back on all the little moments you miss on the day itself as well as having footage of the precious memories. Thank you so much! We would highly recommend!

James made it so easy for us to trust him to make the perfect wedding video for us, he listened exactly to what we wanted and went above and beyond to deliver it. Outstanding communication and it really felt like he was one of our friends attending the wedding with his bubbly and approachable personality. We received a highlights real the day after our wedding and our wedding video just two days after our wedding which is just unbelievable! I would recommend him to anyone who wants the perfect shots for their special day

Absolutely fantastic films and great videographer!

I couldn’t recommend James David enough! He filmed our wedding on the 10th June and the early shots look superb and were such beautiful quality for the day.
The service we received was brilliant from start to finish, James was extremely helpful and accommodating. Nothing was too much trouble and the whole experience was great.

So Very Happy!!

We just clicked with James right from the start and knew he was our man.
We purposely only chose a videographer, as we knew we could take stills from the film, so saved us the cost of a photographer…happy days.

James took a lot of time to be with us and we were well aware that he was extremely capable, yet he listened and was excited for our special day.
We had A LOT going on and he captured it all!!

So far, we’ve only seen snippets of our day and so far it looks truly memorable.

We just know we will be super happy with our final movie….Thank you James ❤️

He will capture unique memories to last a lifetime

A totally unique professional and tailored service. Our wedding was in Cyprus so we had the added benefits of Jamie joining us with our wedding planner ahead of our day. He took time with our family at the hotel and his creativity and excitement about our celebrations blew us away! he's got the most infectious energy and he has the ability to be involved but without you even realising he's there! mainly due to the fact that within hours of being in his company we quickly realised he was going to be a friend for life! every bit of the footage Jamie captured told a story...our fairytale that came true and as cheesy as it sounds he was pivotal in making it all come to life...the most amazing memories made

The most amazing wedding videographer!!

Wow wow wow!!! We couldn’t be happier with our experience with James!
He captured our wedding day perfectly, producing the most stunning videos that brought us to tears. Every special moment, big and small, was beautifully documented, and his attention to detail and artistic touch truly shone through. Beyond his incredible talent, he was an absolute pleasure to have around - warm, professional, and easy to work with.
We’re so grateful for the memories he’s given us, and we can’t recommend him highly enough! Thank you for making our day unforgettable!

N&F wedding

James was part of the family as soon as he walked through the door! He was so personable, friendly and his attention to detail was amazing.
We were so happy that James did our videography, he caught so many poignant moments of our day and did a wonderful compilation. So thrilled with the result!
Everyone needs a James for their wedding!
