James Films Weddings
Who are we...
Hi I’m James and I’ve been making wedding videos for over ten years now. I was originally asked by some friends to film their wedding as a favour and loved the experience. I use my background of fine art with film and apply it to making carefully crafted wedding films.
James Films Weddings
My style of filming is very much to merge into the background and capture events as they unfold around me. I like to be in the thick of the action but without actually being noticed. I watch and observe before deciding what to film, picking out all the little details that make wedding days so unique to each couple. This gives the film a feeling that takes it beyond a simple recording of the day.
I will take directions from the couple beforehand, if there are any people etc that you’d want particular attention to then I’m always going to incorporate them. Otherwise I let the day take me and enjoy the atmosphere which all goes into capturing the emotion of the day.
I offer a complete day’s filming for £900.
That’s it. No gold, silver, bronze packages to choose from, extras to miss out on – you get everything for one price.
With this offer you receive a ‘highlights’ video set to a song of your choice and a full length movie of the day’s events, including the ceremony and all the speeches.
The highlights film is first delivered via an online link to share on social media and the full length movie is shared via a link with a private password to share with those you choose. You then receive both the highlights and full length movie on 5 DVDs packaged in recycled materials sourced from UK suppliers.
I arrive to film the bridal preparations (and the groom depending on locations) and then stay the whole day, past the first dance and into the jollities after.
My ethos is to have as low an impact on the environment as possible during the process of making a wedding film.
The only physical products of the experience are the 5 DVDs that are created and these will be packaged in recyclable material and sourced from a UK supplier.
Otherwise there is no impact on the environment through my use of used / secondhand equipment and the transfer of all footage online. I leave no trace on the day and value the importance of sustainability in the wedding industry that I work in.
