Videography
In addition to photography (see separate pages), I can also offer video coverage of your wedding. This is done using the latest high end video equipment to produce a DVD containing footage of your day. The style of filming is usually informal and I try to be as unobtrusive as possible, to leave you to enjoy your day without being overly conscious of there being a camera present.
Videos can be produced in widescreen (16:9) or traditional (4:3) formats using professional quality equipment. Editing can allow a variety of effects, cutting out (or including as an out-take!) any embarassing slip-ups, incorporating slide-shows of "growing up" photographs or your guests' photographs from the day; the possibilities are ever expanding.
Below are sample videos of recent work, along with video package prices and information. Because of the capacities of the internet, these videos are very restricted in size, so please contact me to arrange to see higher quality sample work. Please choose between the videos according to your internet connection speed (they will open in a new window; please ensure any pop-up blockers are disabled). These videos require QuickTime player for viewing, which can be downloaded from here.

Style
In every package I usually take a good selection of informal / candid footage as well as the traditional formal style images. If you wish the proportion of these to be increased, please let me know.
Photo slideshows
A selection of “early years” and other photos can be added to the DVD as a slideshow, if you wish. If you have a stills photographer at your wedding, with their permission you can also have a slideshow of those photos added. Please discuss with me for the technicalities of what type of photographs can be added.
Extra DVDs
Available for £50 each
Other Extras
I can arrange a 7 inch digital “photo” frame that can sit on your mantelshelf or coffee table and play a lower resolution version of your main film, as well as include a slideshow of the still photographs your photographer has taken. £150.
DVD Format
Your DVD(s) will contain edited footage showing the day as I interpret it.
Usually it will be in 16:9 widescreen format for PAL televisions, but can also be produced in 4:3 format if you prefer (please inform me ahead of the day after speaking to whoever might require copies).
Terms of Business
A 25% deposit is payable upon completion of the booking forms. The balance is paid upon delivery of the video after the wedding.
Copyright
All footage taken by me remains my copyright. The couple must speak to the venues to ensure they are aware I shall be attending, and pay any copyright fees required by the venues (eg. Church copyright fees). Where the couple request particular music to be incorporated within the DVD, copyright fees must be paid to the Performing Rights Society.
