Videography
The emotion, the laughter, and of course the banter. In the digital age, you're able to capture so much more. Relive the best day of your life over and over again via your phone or the computer.
Your wedding day only happens once. Why wouldn’t you want to record it all for prosperity?!
The reason I got into creating wedding films was to create beautiful visuals that tell the love story of my amazing couples. I truly do believe a wedding film is an amazing addition to your wedding day and so, so worth it. The moving image offers such a raw and emotional connection that still photos (as beautiful and amazing as they are) don’t have – you get to see moments unfold all over again and it really can be quite magical watching it.
- Your wedding day passes so quickly and it’s impossible to see and remember every detail. A great video will help record the important moments for you, plus show you things you may have missed too.
- Not everyone can come or is invited to your wedding. Being able to share your wedding with them helps them feel a part of your day too.
- A video can capture the emotions and words of your wedding day.
My Style
Picking a photographer is hard enough, let alone a videographer. I read the emotion on the day and tell it via a story. With vibrant warm tones, Alot of banter + epic dance moves. I am the calm presence who will help you navigate your day. From helping the photographer organize your family photos, to carrying your train + veil. To finding one of the bridesmaids to help you when you need help climbing on and off the toilet.

Thank you Mel for capturing our day so perfectly! Mel is so flexible and easy to work with, she really captured the atmosphere of the day and we're so glad we have our video to remember it by. There's something that video captures that you don't get with photos and these memories are so special to look back on. One amazing feature of Mel's work is the next day sneak peek! She's so efficient at communicating and quick to get the finished product out to you. Everyone felt so at ease on the day, Mel ensured that we were able to relax and have fun. Once again, thank you Mel!
