He/She will then start filming all aspects from e.g. the venue from outside to guests arriving; at all different angles and perspectives. Our aim is to be as non-intrusive to you as possible, a bit like a ‘fly on the wall’. Of course, all details and requests will be discussed and approved with you before your event date.

Perfect choice of videographer for our wedding day
We chose Special Occasion Video Productions after meeting with Martin around a year before our wedding. Martin was very understanding in seeing what we wanted from our wedding video and very helpful and organised in the lead up to the day. He also took the time to explain the various options we had available and nothing was too much trouble through the whole process.
On the day, Martin and Mel blended in so well and were unobtrusive, yet they managed to capture every moment of the day so perfectly. Watching the video lets us see so many moments we couldn't take in on the day and watch everyone enjoying it.
We can't stop watching our finished video and are so grateful to Martin for all his help and the excellent video he has made for us.
Thank you from Sarah & Aaron.
