About
About us:
We are a family-run business with a young and well-balanced team specialising in cinematic wedding films and candid wedding photography. Despite the name, we are a multi-gender team consisting of brother and sister duo Sam and April as resident videographers, working alongside our resident photographers Sofia and Tom.
Our style:
No clichéd sepia-toned or desaturated presets here, every wedding we shoot is completely unique. Unlike other suppliers we have no set style and we pride ourselve on breaking away from the cookie-cutter approach. Whether it's a vibrant and colorful summer celebration or a romantic and dreamy autumn affair, we adapt our films and photos to perfectly match your day with authentic storytelling that resonates with who you are as a couple. We don't believe in forcing a one-size-fits-all style on your special day, we're shooting for you - not our portfolio!
Our approach:
We are relaxed and unposed with a natural and candid approach, meaning that we don't have expectations of you on the day, and we let things unfold naturally as they should without telling you how to be, where to be, what to be, or what to do. My favorite example of this is during your portrait session. Usually, this happens shortly after the ceremony, and it's the first time during the wedding day that you actually get to spend a bit of quality time with just the two of you without guests or suppliers interrupting to congratulate or greet you. We don't waste that time posing you - instead, we get the two of you to take a little walk around the venue, to the most gorgeous spots that we've already scouted out, and we'll encourage you to have a chat and a giggle while we hang back and capture those genuine natural moments of laughter and affection. We might suggest you practice your first dance or do something playful, but none of that overly-posed cheesy posturing! If you feel more comfortable with music, we can even bring a Bluetooth speaker pre-loaded with some of your favorite songs.
If we pick up on the vibe that you do need a bit of direction, perhaps you feel a bit awkward knowing that you're being photographed, then of course, we'll provide as much as is needed. However, our goal is for you to be able to forget that we are even there during those moments. We keep our movement minimal during any key moment such as the ceremony and speeches, typically our cameras remain locked down on tripods shooting from the edges of the room.
Most of our couples say that they either didn't notice us on the day (meant in the nicest way possible) or that they genuinely felt as if we were members of the wedding party. During the wedding day, we try to blend in, and we don't get in people's faces with cameras. When we do interact with the wedding party, we're never inappropriate or rude, etc. We dress formally, and we uphold a high standard of work and etiquette.
We absolutely love being such an important part of so many weddings, it's truly a blessing to be able to film and photograph such a beautiful day and to be able to create memories that you will treasure for a lifetime and be able to pass through multiple generations of your family.
Services Offered:
We offer two main wedding videography packages, which feature full-day coverage of your big day. Our video packages are all-inclusive. All packages come with full-coverage from morning prep until 20-30 minutes after the first dance, drone footage is included for free and we deliver full-length, fully edited multi-cam videos of your ceremony and speeches (separate to the main video) as part of the package. The only extras we charge for are if you require a second videographer or a stylised teaser video.
Highlight Films (£2,000-3,500)
Our highlight films are incredibly creative and stylised videos which tell the story of your wedding day, these can be 5-8 minutes or 12-15 minutes. These are perfect for sharing with family and friends.
Traditional Films (£2,800-3,800)
Our traditional films tend to be 30- to 40-minute wedding videos, which are filmed and edited in a documentary type of style, with a lot of reportage shots, a focus on guest interaction and the edit will be mostly in chronological order with a slower pace and less stylised/creative editing style.
Wedding Photography (£1,000-1,800)
We offer wedding photography packages starting at £1,000 for six hours of coverage, our most expensive package is full-day coverage which offers the same coverage as our video packages (morning prep until 20-30 minutes after the first dance) and this costs £1,800.
Additional Camera Operators (£500)
For both photography and videography - our packages come with one camera operator. An additional camera operator which may be required if you want both sets of morning prep covered, more guest interaction, or if you want to purchase the raw footage and you want to make sure we cover as much as possible... This costs £500 per additional camera operator.
Delivery:
We deliver all of our films and photos on gorgeous, weighted glass and rose gold USB drives inside of custom laser engraved mahogony boxes with a magnetic slide release and padded interior. Additionally we create an online gallery page for each of our couples to display their films and photos in an easy to navigate gallery which you can share with family and friends and use to directly order prints, albums and additional USB drives.
