Start with the film they wanted
The brief began with reference videos and a song choice. Those gave me a starting point for understanding the kind of film the couple wanted, and a direction for bringing their wedding day together in the edit.
My job was to take those preferences and make a finished film from the day itself, carrying their ideas through the filming and into the final piece.
Two cameras, different roles
I handled the main camera and set up the audio. For much of the day, I worked on a Ronin, moving between angles to capture different perspectives.
I hired a second videographer to support the coverage with a B camera, working mainly from a tripod. That gave us a steady supporting view while I moved with the main camera.
Bring the coverage together
I then shaped the footage into the wedding film, using the references and chosen song as the creative starting point. The two-camera coverage gave me different views to work with, while the audio setup was part of capturing the day alongside the images.
The result is the finished film above: a personal piece made from the couple’s preferences and the moments captured at their wedding.
A full film and a short introduction
The project includes the full wedding film featured here and a separate mini introduction. The full edit is the main piece, with the shorter version offering another way into the project.
