Experience
What is your most memorable wedding?
We recently filmed a wedding that had a rodeo bull and everyone had a go, even the bride & groom.
Describe your style in 5 adjectives.
Natural, relaxed, stylish, fun and approachable.
What about your business are you most proud of?
I think I'm most proud of the quality of our films. We bought most of our kit just before the pandemic hit and we self taught in a matter of months (we are used to shooting on TV cameras which are huge and not appropriate for weddings).
I'm also chuffed to bits that I managed to set up a website all by myself without killing anyone... (wine most definitely helped)
I'm also proud that we can now do wedding photography and videography- working together as team on the wedding day and in the office with all the editing.
What is your No.1 wedding planning tip for couples?
Speeches BEFORE Wedding Breakfast. Controversial I know but here are the reasons why;
1.) It's kinder to the speakers as they are less stressed. This way they can actually enjoy the food and wine.
2.) Less time for loose lips from the Best Man/Woman when they are not able to drink their nerves away.
3.) It's an ice breaker & good talking point for people at tables, especially if they don't know each other well.
What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?
I think it was the Rodeo Bull at the wedding drinks reception. If we weren't filming everyone on it it I think we'd have given it a go. It was a great and all the guests were getting competitive. The Crazy Golf at Prestwold Hall was another big favourite of ours at a recent wedding.
Describe your typical process with a couple.
We receive all our enquiries through our website. If you don't hear back from us within 48 hours, please do check your Junk Folder.
What is your favourite soundtrack to put to a wedding video?
I love the bridal prep and the ceremony section of our films the most so that's where my favourite tracks are. They are usually very chilled and atmospheric.
Describe how you got into videography.
Our background as television producers and directors meant that we were all over the world filming for the BBC, ITV, Channel 4, and Discovery.
Since having our two children, we decided to set up Bridger Film and Photography so that we could stay creative, keep doing what we love but with the flexibility to suit our family life.
