A ‘cinematic wedding film’
can be all sorts of things.
The way the light falls behind you like some beautiful accident. Or how the camera stirs a memory as it moves with you through the crowd.
It could be how that *perfect* music carries you into a moment. Or how the framing of a smile tells a story, and draws you in.
And I think that’s the difference, you know?
Between a wedding video, and a wedding film. Between something you’ll just watch, and something you’ll feel.
So as I’m telling your story, that’s how I’ll do it. Carefully, creatively. With intent.
Giving you a film that feels like a memory, and looks like a movie. One that moves with you, laughs with you, and joins you in each moment.
A ‘cinematic wedding film’
can be all sorts of things.
It’s not all sweeping drone shots, and sunset silhouettes.
Sometimes it’s something small, something subtle.
A film that pulls you in as you watch, and brings you right back.
Your Experience
You can see it as you watch them; you can feel it in every frame.
That "known each other for years” feeling- where you can have a laugh, have a drink, and let your guard down. Be silly, be soppy, and just…be.
So if I’m your videographer, we’ll be friends from the get-go.
We’ll get to know each other before you book, and keep in touch after. I’ll be your hype-man on socials, your “quick question…” expert. I’ll know what’s important to you as a couple, what makes you laugh, and what makes you cringe.
And when your day comes, it’ll feel easy.
Cotton-wooled in that “So how do you know the couple?” closeness. Like we’ve known each other for years, and you’ve asked me to bring my camera.
You don’t want people staring down the barrel of the lens (especially on video, they look quietly insane).
So most of the time, I’ll be melting into your day like a cheeky-n-cheerful guest.
I’ll banter with the bridesmaids, fetch mum a drink, and crack jokes with your friends. Waiting patiently for those heartfelt, human moments- wide-eyed smiles, knowing looks, and running jokes. The messy and the beautiful, the eye-roll tears.
Catching them quietly, and weaving them into the story.
And while everyone’s all caught up in the excitement and queueing at the bar, my sole focus will be on you. Your happiness, your experience.
Giving you space to go wild, make memories, and be present. And making sure when you reach for something, it’s already there.
Most of the time on your wedding day, you’ll hardly notice I’m there. But your couple’s session is a wee bit different.
You’ll have me and your photographer… I’ll be honest, it’s a bit of a lens fest!
But you know what? It might just be your favourite part of the day. A chance to be together, just the two of you. To step away from the attention, and soak it all in.
So let’s go for a stroll, and have fun with it together.
I’ll joke around, hype you up, and ask for your A-game patter! Acting like an idiot with your photographer- to make you laugh, and put you at ease.
Because those are always the best bits. Your jokes, your secret language, the way you make each other laugh. That closeness that comes when it’s just you and them.
And I promise it’ll fly by- a little too quickly. Before you know it, you’ll be back in the party with a cocktail in your hand.

Your wedding Film will be your window into the past.
Your wedding photos will be your screensaver.
“Danny captured every ounce of love, laughter and tears – our film is the perfect way to relive our day over and over.”
A line from the speeches, noticed for what it was. Little looks that meant everything; those “do you remember…?” moments. The energy of the film- rising and falling with the energy of the day.
And more than anything, that’s what I want to give you.
Not just the story of your day, but the story of you. Your humour, your affection, your people as they are. All the things that brought you together, and the love that brought you here.
Those bear-hugs hello, and butterflies at the altar. Confetti kisses, and head-back laughter; love-heart sunnies in a dancefloor haze.
You’ll hear jokes, conversations, and clinking glasses; a tapestry of sounds you’ll never have to forget.
And beneath it all there’ll be something more. Sewn into the edit, flowing beneath the moments…something that’s yours, something you’ll feel.
And as the music starts to play, your memories of the day will come flooding back…
You'll cuddle up, and snuggle in as you watch it
