Equipment and Technical Specifications

Drone operations require CAA permissions and suitable weather conditions. We obtain necessary permits for aerial footage at your venue. Flight restrictions may apply near airports or restricted airspace.
Pre-Wedding Planning and Coordination
Effective wedding film production requires detailed advance planning. We conduct venue visits to assess lighting conditions, acoustic properties, and optimal camera positions. Timeline coordination ensures we capture all significant moments without missing key events.
Our pre-wedding checklist includes shot lists, family group requirements, and special requests. We coordinate with your wedding planner, venue coordinator, and other suppliers. This collaborative approach maximises efficiency during your wedding day.
Communication continues throughout the engagement period with regular check-ins. We provide guidance on ceremony positioning for optimal filming angles. Couples receive recommendations for lighting, music selection, and timing considerations.
Shot List Development and Special Requests
We create customised shot lists based on your preferences and wedding timeline. Standard coverage includes preparation, ceremony, group photographs, and reception highlights. Special requests might include specific family members, cultural traditions, or unique venue features.
Couples provide lists of important guests for focused coverage. We prioritise grandparents, special friends, and family members who travelled significant distances. This personalised approach ensures meaningful moments receive appropriate attention.
Wedding Day Filming Process and Methodology
Our filming team arrives early to establish equipment and assess final conditions. We begin coverage during bridal preparation, capturing natural interactions and emotional moments. Discrete positioning allows authentic documentation without intrusive presence.
Ceremony filming utilises multiple camera angles while respecting venue restrictions. We coordinate with officiants regarding movement limitations and audio requirements. Reception coverage adapts to lighting conditions and venue layout.
- Preparation coverage beginning 2-3 hours before ceremony
- Ceremony documentation from multiple strategic positions
- Group photograph coordination with family and friends
- Reception filming including speeches, dancing, and interactions
- Late evening coverage of final celebrations and departures
Post-ceremony filming includes couple portraits and family groups. We work efficiently to minimise time away from your celebration. Reception coverage continues through speeches, first dance, and evening entertainment.
Technical Filming Approaches and Styles
Our cinematic style emphasises natural lighting and authentic emotions. We avoid excessive direction, preferring documentary-style capture of genuine moments. Stabilisation equipment ensures smooth footage during movement and handheld sequences.
Audio capture includes ceremony vows, speeches, and ambient celebration sounds. We synchronise multiple audio sources during post-production editing. Background music selection complements the emotional tone of each sequence.
Post-Production Editing and Film Creation
Editing begins within one week of your wedding date using professional software including Adobe Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve. We review all footage systematically, selecting the most compelling moments and highest quality shots. Colour grading ensures consistent visual tone throughout your film.
Audio post-production includes dialogue enhancement, music integration, and ambient sound balancing. We create multiple edit versions including highlight reels, ceremony edits, and full-length documentation. Each version receives individual attention to pacing and emotional impact.
The editing process typically requires 4-6 weeks for completion. We provide progress updates and may request input on music selection or specific scene preferences. Revisions are included within our standard service parameters.
