the couple who will film, edit and produce your lovely wedding
video!
Well
where do I start ?, The beginning I suppose. We started filming
wedding videos by filming our friends wedding. We wanted the video
to look special and be a great gift for them for years to come.
We sat down and looked at various demos and they all suffered
from the same drawbacks. The videographer didn't seem to care,
they didn't use tripods for the service to get steady shots, and
often only used the on-board microphone so that the sound was
poor and the cameraman had to get close to the couple, spoiling
any intimacy they had. We talked to various contacts we had in
the world of television and discussed everything with them to
come up with our own techniques that produce professional wedding
videos that everybody enjoys.
We produced the wedding video for our friends
and we were soon called upon other friends, and friends of friends
to film their wedding videos. We really enjoyed the day and the
experience. We enjoy walking as our main hobby hence the pictures,
but soon we had a new hobby. We went on and filmed more wedding
videos for people who had been recommended by our friends or their
friends. Quickly what was intended as a hobby became our life
and at the end of 2003 decided to film weddings on a more commercial
basis and started to advertise.
When
a couple intends to book us Adrian (left) likes to pop around
and see them so we can go over the couples ideas and plans, so
we are focused on their wedding and style. He often visits the
couple or their parents if they live away, since it makes it easier
on the couple. The couple don't have to travel and visit various
shops or people on the weekend which takes up all their time,
Adrian visits you at your convenience in the week, and the aim
is to simply have a friendly chat.
We
are very technically minded people and we use the latest HD Video
Cameras and Digital Audio capture equipment to ensure that the
audio and video are outstanding. From the early days we have had
a good relationship with the licensing bodies. When the law changed
in 2002-3 we was commended for our excellent approach in handling
the licensing for the couples by the main licensing body, the
MCPS.
We
are also very family-orientated and find children at weddings
no bother, they certainly don't bother our sound capturing equipment.
We believe that Weddings are family orientated and are great for
everybody to share in the fun, laughter and festivities. We support
various charities with our work but fund the Wish House Charity
for terminally ill children, who strive to make children's dreams
become reality.
We
believe in professionalism and are members of WEVA the International
Body for Wedding & Event Videography. We do advertise our
services within the east midlands and receive a large amount of
business from recommendations. You can find our work on the Tying-the-Knot
DVD found in BEAVERBROOKS the Jewellers and other retailers. We
don't advertise at wedding fairs, which although great for window
shopping for the bride and groom are not to our taste. We like
people to take time to consider their choices and dislike the
hard sell approach that exhibitors seem to adopt.
Hopefully you have found this interesting
and informative. We have years of experience of producing quality
wedding videos as can be seen by our on-line samples. We design
and produce everything ourselves, with pictures or footage from
our own video cameras. If you intend to have your special day
videoed and we are booked (we
offer a personal service and can only film one wedding per day)
then please look closer at the company that will video your day.
Ask to see samples , not just clips but full wedding videos and
most of all ensure you are confident & comfortable with them.
