Venues I've Filmed At
I've been lucky enough to film at some genuinely beautiful wedding venues across the UK, each with its own character and story. If yours is on the list below, I already know the light, the layout, and the best spots to catch those quiet in-between moments — and if it's not, I'll always visit or research it thoroughly in the weeks before your day so nothing catches me off guard.
Moor Hall Hotel & Spa — Sutton Coldfield, West Midlands
An elegant country estate close to home for me, blending refined interiors with beautiful garden ceremony spaces and sweeping grounds that come alive from the air.
Ivy Lodge — Gloucestershire
A stunning Cotswolds setting where I captured my first full wedding. Warm, characterful, and framed by countryside that makes for cinematic drone work.
Birtsmorton Court — Malvern, Worcestershire
A moated medieval manor with the kind of timeless atmosphere that films itself. Every corner — from the courtyards to the lakeside — is made for storytelling.
Pimhill Barn — Shrewsbury, Shropshire
A rustic barn venue with gorgeous natural light and expansive grounds. Perfect for couples who want a relaxed, countryside feel with plenty of room for a cinematic outdoor ceremony.
Getting married somewhere not on this list? That's genuinely one of my favourite parts of the job — every new venue is a fresh creative challenge. Get in touch and let's talk about your day.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
I'm based in Sutton Coldfield, Birmingham, and travel throughout the UK as standard — anywhere within roughly a 90-minute drive is included in your package with no extra charge. For weddings further afield, I'll add a simple, transparent travel cost (fuel plus accommodation if it's an early start the next morning) and quote it up front so there are no surprises. I’d also love to cover a destination wedding — if your day's happening abroad, get in touch and we'll build a bespoke package around it. Wherever you're getting married, I can be there the night before so the morning is calm and unhurried
-
Absolutely — and I really enjoy it. A good photographer/videographer partnership makes both sets of work better, and I've built my whole approach around being easy to share a day with. I'll always reach out to your photographer in the week before the wedding to introduce myself, talk through the timeline, and agree how we'll move around each other during key moments like the ceremony, group shots, and speeches. My style is deliberately unobtrusive, so you'll never see me elbowing for a shot or getting in anyone's way. If you haven't booked a photographer yet, I'm happy to recommend a few I've enjoyed working with.

Honestly? Some of the most beautiful wedding footage happens in weather nobody planned for. Rain gives you moody skies, umbrellas, laughing dashes between buildings, and reflections in wet stone — it's genuinely lovely to film. My kit is weather-sealed and I always bring backup covers, so a shower won't stop me shooting. The only element that's truly weather-dependent is drone footage — I can not launch. the drone in high winds or rain, so if conditions ground the drone on the day, I'll capture the venue from the air on a scouting visit beforehand or a return trip afterwards at no extra cost. Whatever the forecast, your film will still feel like your day.

Most couples book 9–18 months ahead, and peak summer Saturdays (June through September) tend to go first — often a year or more in advance. That said, if your date is closer, always ask: I keep a limited number of shorter-notice slots open each season, and midweek or off-peak weddings are often still available at shorter lead times. Because I only take on a set number of weddings each year to make sure every couple gets my full attention, once a date is gone it's gone — so if you've got a date in mind, the sooner we chat, the better.
-
Yes — I don't think anyone should have to pay for their wedding film in one go. A 20% deposit secures your date, and the remaining balance can be split across interest-free monthly payments in the lead-up to your wedding, with the final instalment due two weeks before the day. If you'd prefer a different rhythm — a mid-point payment, a larger deposit for a smaller monthly, whatever works — just say and we'll build a plan around your budget. Bookings and payments are all handled through a simple online contract so everything's clear from the start.
-
Yes, a 20% non-refundable booking fee is required to confirm your date, and this is deducted from your final total. Until that deposit lands, I can't hold the date — I get asked about most Saturdays multiple times, so it's the deposit that officially takes it off the calendar. Once you're booked in, that date is yours and I won't take on anything else that day, no matter what comes in. You'll also receive a straightforward booking contract that protects both of us and sets everything out clearly, including what happens in the (very rare) event that a date needs to be moved.
