Pre-wedding film

Your Story Before the Big Day

A wedding film is about more than what happens on the day. It’s about who you are together. A pre-wedding film gives space to tell that story properly.

This is a relaxed, cinematic shoot captured ahead of your wedding, centred around your everyday lives, shared passions, or a place that means something to you both. It’s not about posing or performing – it’s about capturing the connection that already exists, naturally and honestly.

The FAQs

Documentary wedding videography means capturing the natural moments without getting involved or posing/setting anything up. My style is to capture your day as it happens and all the natural and unprecedented moments that come with it. This is a documentary approach which also supports my phrase I use often – creating films with feeling.

The term “cinematography” has its origins in Greek. It is derived from two Greek words:

  1. “kīnēma” (κίνημα) – meaning “movement”
  2. “graphein” (γράφειν) – meaning “to write”

Therefore, “cinematography” essentially means “writing or recording of motion.” It refers to the art and science of capturing moving images on film or digital media through the use of a camera.

Yes! I insure with Policy Bee. I am more than happy to share my documents with you, the venue or your planner. Just let me know.

Absolutely! I have worked with many filmmakers across Scotland so I can always ensure I can add them to my team to aid in capturing your special day. Weddings are incredilby hard to capture and I strongly beleive that having an extra pair of hands will allow me to deliver a better overall production. I also wrote a blog post about why having a team is so important here.

I require 25% of the total value to secure the day. The final 75% will be due one month before the wedding day.

I offer a complimentary Google Meets call for potential clients, where we can chat about your plans for your day. I also offer to meet up in person if the logistics align. I will then explain my approach, my style, and the general flow of the day from a videographer’s standpoint. Since I am spending most of the day with you and creating a cherished item for you, I aim to make certain that I am the ideal match for your needs!

I have been a filmmaker for the last 10+ years, working for a wide variety of clients across the UK. I began working as a wedding videographer in 2017 because I wanted to take what I had learned in the commercial industry and use those skills to create emotional, story-driven wedding films. If you’d like to know more, check out my About Me page.

I shoot with small Sony mirrorless cameras that allow me to keep a low profile and shoot in any lighting condition. I also shoot with two drones that give you an even more cinematic feel to your films.

I’m so pleased that you’ve taken a good look through my website, watched my portfolio and are impressed enough to consider taking the next step. I look forward to working with you soon.

Kim’s Wedding Planning Advice

WEDDING PLANNING ADVICE FROM KIM Tell me about the wedding- the theme, location, colours? Our wedding was at Glenfinnan and Fort William. I did not have a theme as such; I went with the flow and the theme of the places we visited and pinks and greys. The colour palette was chosen after meeting our…
