What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?
A bride being walked down the aisle by her 2 year old daughter, such a touching moment.
Describe your typical process with a couple.
The first step (before even booking) is to chat with the couple, either by phone, Skype or in person when possible. This helps me to get to know what they would like from their wedding films and puts a face to the name of my business. We would then talk again a month before the wedding date to go through the finer details of the wedding, answer any questions and generally just to catch up. After the wedding I keep in touch with the couple to ensure they are aware of when their films are going to be ready to watch.

I would have to say my trip to India to film a wedding was full of fascinating moments to capture!

Describe how you got into videography.
I studied Documentary film and Television at University where I developed technical skills and understanding that apply perfectly to wedding videography.
