Frequently Asked Questions

Planning a wedding comes with a lot of questions — and choosing the right videographer is a big part of that.
Here are ten of the most common questions couples often ask before booking.

  • Most couples tell me they don’t want to feel like they’re “on camera” all day — and I completely understand that.

    My approach is relaxed and unobtrusive. I focus on capturing real moments as they happen, rather than staging anything or turning your day into a production. The result is a natural, cinematic film that feels true to you — not forced or posed.

  • Very little.

    I’ll gently guide you if needed (for example, during a couple shoot), but for the most part I blend into the background and let the day unfold naturally. This helps you stay present and enjoy your wedding, while I capture everything as it really happened.

  • You’re not alone — almost every couple says this at first.

    The good news is that my approach is designed exactly for that. I don’t put you under pressure or ask you to perform. Most couples tell me afterwards that they quickly forgot they were being filmed at all.

  • Coverage is flexible depending on your plans, but typically I’m there from preparations through to the evening celebrations.

    We’ll go through your timeline together beforehand so everything runs smoothly and nothing important is missed.

  • Yes - I film weddings across Scotland and beyond.

    If your wedding is further afield, just let me know the details and I’ll confirm any travel arrangements clearly upfront.

  • Scottish weather can be unpredictable, but it’s never a problem.

    Some of the most atmospheric and beautiful footage comes from those conditions. I always adapt to the day and make the most of whatever the weather brings.

  • I take great care in crafting each film, so editing is done thoughtfully rather than rushed.

    You can typically expect your finished film within a few weeks. I’ll always give you a clear timeframe after your wedding so you know what to expect.

  • Music plays a huge part in how your film feels.

    I carefully select music that fits your day and the story I’m telling, but if you have preferences or particular styles you like, I’m always happy to take that into account.

  • Absolutely.

    I’m very used to working alongside photographers and always make sure we work together seamlessly. The goal is to capture everything without getting in each other’s way — and without disrupting your day.

  • If you like what you’ve seen and feel my approach is right for you, the next step is to get in touch and check availability for your date.

    From there, I’ll guide you through everything else and keep the process simple and straightforward.

    If you have any other questions at all, feel free to ask — I’m always happy to help.
