Hi, I'm Lee 👋

Calm

Nerdy

Professional

Hi, I’m Lee! I believe it’s essential for couples to know who I am and get a sense of my vibe. While I’m obsessed with filmmaking and cameras, I’m also a bit of a paradox. Despite my calm nature, I’m a hardcore trance music fan and have traveled the world for festivals. I’m an animal lover (especially guinea pigs) and a total tech geek. I love deep conversations and forming authentic connections over small, meaningful moments.

FAQs

Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

That's a tough question because I've enjoyed every wedding I've filmed. But one that stands out is an Oxfordshire wedding I filmed while helping another filmmaker. The couple had planned for an owl to fly down the aisle and deliver the rings, but the owl refused to leave the handler's finger and squawked in the background instead. It was hilarious and had all the guests laughing—whether that's a good or bad omen, who knows!

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Documentary, cinematic, timeless, minimalistic, authentic

What about your business are you most proud of?

The thing I'm most proud of is the reactions I get from couples when I deliver their films. Seeing how much my work means to them, how it captures their story, warms my heart. It's far more rewarding than anything I’ve experienced filming for corporate clients.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

My top wedding planning tip is to take it one step at a time. When I was planning my own wedding, I felt completely overwhelmed by everything that needed to be done. But by breaking it down and doing a little bit each day, you’ll stay calm and enjoy the process.

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

One of the most memorable personal touches was when the groom surprised his bride by serenading her as he walked down the aisle. It was especially meaningful because they were both musicians, and the moment felt so genuine and intimate.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

My process begins with an initial chat to make sure my style aligns with what the couple wants. I get to know them, learn about any important details or moments they want captured, and gain an understanding of their personalities. Crafting their wedding film is like telling a story, and to do that, I need to know the couple like characters from a book.

What is the most exciting thing you have caught on camera?

Rather than one single moment, I get excited about capturing the energy of the day, especially when filming the dancing. That’s when everyone’s loosened up, the vibe is high, and it feels like the celebration is truly in full swing.

What is the one film you wish you had directed and why?

I don’t see myself as a director—I’m more of a cinematographer. However, I would have loved to be on any set for any Edgar Wright film. He’s such a brilliant filmmaker, and I've probably watched Shaun of the Dead more times than I’ve seen any other movie.

What is your favourite soundtrack to put to a wedding video?

I love using beautiful, timeless soundtracks—especially piano or string quartets. They add an elegant, classic touch, which fits perfectly with my aim to create wedding films that feel timeless.

Describe how you got into videography.

I’ve been passionate about filmmaking and photography from a young age. I studied it in university with the idea that I’d become a video editor, which is why I love crafting stories from wedding footage. However, I soon discovered I also loved being on set, so working in wedding filmmaking gives me the best of both worlds. Though I still do corporate work, I relaunched my wedding business because delivering a couple’s wedding film feels far more personal and fulfilling.
