James makes dreams come true

I’m not sure where to start other than i didn’t want working with James to end! From the intro call to the planning meeting, arriving on the day and delivering our special video, working with James has been nothing short of an absolute JOY!

James has the unique ability to be your fun and caring friend on your wedding day whilst still maintaining the highest level of professionalism professional, and not only that, he brings bags of enthusiasm and insane levels of talent. When James had finished shooting our day, we didn’t want him to leave!!

When we received our wedding video, we got to relive our day through the eyes of our guests and the love that was shared - we shed many tears! As my mum sobbed watching the video back she said “he’s captured the joy” - and he really did. I’ve wanted a wedding video since i was a little girl, and James has made that little girl’s dream come true. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, James. 🫶🏼 Love, Mr & Mrs Westerman

James didn’t just film our wedding- he captured our story!

We honestly cannot recommend James David Films highly enough. Choosing James as our wedding videographer was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding, and from our very first conversation right through to the wedding day, he exceeded every expectation we had.

From the beginning, James made us feel completely at ease. Before the wedding, he took the time to explain exactly how the day would work from his perspective, what he would be filming, when he would be with each of us, and how everything would flow. It made such a huge difference. Weddings can feel overwhelming, and knowing exactly what to expect from our videographer gave us so much reassurance. We never felt like we were left wondering what was happening or worrying about whether important moments would be captured because James had already talked us through everything so thoroughly.

On the wedding day itself, James was everything you could hope for in a videographer. He was incredibly professional, calm, approachable and friendly. He has such a natural ability to put people at ease, and it honestly felt like having another friend there rather than someone we’d only recently met. We had so many laughs throughout the day, and because of that, everything felt completely natural. There was never any awkwardness in front of the camera, and we were able to relax and simply enjoy every moment.

James has an unbelievable eye for detail and an incredible creative vision. He suggested ideas and shots that we would never have thought of ourselves, and those ideas have resulted in memories that we know we will treasure forever. Nothing ever felt forced or overly posed. Instead, he captured genuine emotions, natural moments and all the little details that made our day so special. His passion for what he does shines through in every interaction and every idea he comes up with.

What really sets James apart is how much he genuinely cares about the couples he works with. You can tell that creating beautiful wedding films isn’t just his job – it’s something he truly loves. He takes so much pride in his work, and that dedication shows in everything he does. Throughout the entire day, he worked so hard behind the scenes while somehow remaining calm, organised and unobtrusive. We never once had to worry about whether he was capturing the important moments because we knew we were in the safest hands.

Looking back, we are so grateful that we chose James David Films. The memories he has captured for us are something we will cherish for the rest of our lives, and we honestly cannot thank him enough. If you’re considering booking James, don’t hesitate. He is worth every single penny, and we would choose him again without a second thought.

Thank you, James, for your kindness, your professionalism, your creativity and for giving us memories that we will treasure forever. You are truly exceptional, and we cannot recommend you highly enough.

Capturing memories

My daughter and son-in-law booked James as their wedding videographer, and I truly feel it was one of the best decisions they made. From the moment he arrived, everything felt effortless and friendly—it was as if we had known him for years. On the day, he captured so many beautiful, natural moments without ever being intrusive; to be honest, I often forgot he was there filming.
When I sat with the happy couple to watch the film, I was blown away. It was emotional, cinematic, and perfectly told the story of what an incredible day it had been. I have already watched it countless times and still get goosebumps. Nothing was too much trouble for James. He looked after the bridal party not just as clients, but as people, and he was so easy to talk to. His calm nature helped everyone relax, and he truly went above and beyond to deliver a film that exceeded all expectations. I honestly couldn’t recommend James highly enough.

Best videogroaher EVER

Wow, where to even begin with James... from my first enquiry phonecall with him, James was friendly, knowledgeable and professional and completely put me at ease as he spoke through all the information. I knew from that moment that we had to have him film our wedding.

James has fab communication and was so responsive throughout the run up to the wedding with questions I had.

On the day, James was absolutely amazing, I couldn't fault him at all. He was so professional , friendly and funny and was also good at recognising if I needed some space or if i was getting overwhelmed. He checked in with us constantly and went completely over and beyond.

I have been following James on Social media since we booked him and his work looks incredible and it makes me so excited to see our finished film and we thank you James that we will have that to relive such a special day over and over again.

We couldn't have asked anyone better than James and we thank you so much for everything.

If you are looking for an amazing, down to earth, talented videographer, then James is your man!

Outstanding!

We couldn’t be happier with our wedding videos from James. From start to finish, he was professional, friendly, and made us feel completely at ease throughout the day. He captured all the special moments so naturally without ever feeling intrusive, and the final film exceeded all our expectations. The attention to detail, storytelling, and emotion in the edit brought the whole day back to life for us.

When we watched our wedding film for the first time, it genuinely felt like reliving the whole day again, I cried my eyes out the minute it started. The way he put everything together — the atmosphere, the emotions, the laughter, and all the small details — was incredible.

The best of the best

An unforgettable experience from start to finish - in all the right ways! We were lucky enough to have James shoot our wedding and his charm, character and talent for capturing all the little moments made for the most incredible videos. He caught every expression, every look, every moment, and we ended up with films that we’ll cherish forever. My husband and I said that while watching them back, we could feel how we felt in the moment. What more could we ask for! And a shoutout to Yasmin who was nothing short of incredible throughout the process. So kind, caring and professional and willing to do whatever she could to make the process easy and enjoyable. All in all, a brilliant team who will deliver everything you want and more. Book them, you won’t regret it!

Just magical!

I have finally emotionally recovered from watching our wedding film and can hopefully put into words just how much we appreciate everything James David Films has done to make our wedding the most memorable experience of our lives!


Firstly, James was on it from the very beginning. A true professional and master of his craft. I had already viewed a few of the previous wedding films he’d shot and edited and it was unlike anything I’d ever seen before. They weren’t just clips strung together, they were a cinematic experience. I knew I had to have him as part of our special day. Yasmin (who deals with the admin side of things) was also wonderful, her communication and organisation was extremely smooth and efficient.

We were super lucky to have Hannah as our videographer. A genuine, warm person with so much passion and talent behind the lens. She captured every nuanced moment that would have otherwise been forgotten due to the craziness of the day. She was assisted by Mick who was so kind and relaxed, putting us at ease throughout.

They vibed so well with our photographers, working together to ensure we’d have memories of love and joy to last a lifetime.
The final product is unbelievable! I’ve watched our film (and it really is a film) every day since receiving it and every time I notice something different. A moment of laughter, a guest reaction, a look of love. It really is something else.

Thank you so much to everyone at James David Films for giving us something that we will treasure for the rest of our life.

Go and book them, you will not regret it!

Amazing videographer!!

We booked James and Mick as our wedding videographers and they were amazing! They captured the day perfectly.

Really easy to work with and captured everything we wanted and more, in a beautiful and natural style. Watching the videos brings us right back to the big day!

Hannah was also really helpful in organising and coordinating everything, making it so much easier.

Thank you so much! We would 100% recommend them.

Can't recommend James and team enough!!

All I can say is WOW! I cannot recommend James and his team enough! In the lead up to the wedding, James and Yasmin were both so attentive, answering any questions, sending us regular emails and video calls to run through details on the day - in which they both helped us to feel so calm and really get into the moment and enjoyment of what was to come in the following weeks. On the wedding day, both James and Mick fit in so well with the rest of the suppliers we had on the day, everyone became a well oiled machine and it meant that everyone could do what they needed to. James and Mick were also friendly and fit in seamlessly with guests also - was like they were part of the guest list! Nothing was too much of an ask, including helping us to capture the announcement of our wedding day surprise, our baby! We felt so at ease with them recording and to be honest, at some points completely forgot they were there as they blended in so well! Since the day, James has been teasing us with video sneak peaks and they give me goosebumps every time! I cannot wait to see the whole thing!! My husband and I have felt so emotional as cake has been eaten, flowers have wilted and our memories of the day are starting to fade and seeing these teaser clips has helped to take us straight back to the day and notice so many details that we'd hadn't noticed before! I cannot wait for the whole film. Would thoroughly recommend James and his team for your big day!

We've now received our final films and they are a beautiful way to relive the day. so many emotions and small things captured that we didnt notice on the day - having them to watch over and over again is beautiful.

You need james as your videographer for your wedding!

From the moment I filled out the form on his website to the conversation I had with him on the phone, I knew he was the right person to capture our wedding day perfectly!!! and from the videos we have now received from capturing every moment from the ceremony to the speeches and up to the evening celebration he has got the high spirit of the whole day and every moment is stunning and beautiful, so this is confirmation he is your guy!!!

James on the day was so professional and also very discreet in capturing the day with us and picking up moments that even we didn't notice. Even with people who are camera shy he has such a friendly manner it made then feel so at ease and comfortable that they loved it!!

Not only was he there doing the wedding video he also did these amazing Instagram reels including our guests which was utterly brilliant and everyone loved this and commented how amazing it was!!

I can't express how lovely these videos are - I literally cry happy tears every time I watch it. I will have these memories with me for a lifetime and just hearing your loved ones voices especially when they are not hear anymore still feels like they are in the room with you and that is priceless!!!!!! 5 stars just isn't enough I would give him 10 stars if I could.
