Last update: April 2025

Recognised for my award-winning work, I've had the privilege of capturing high-profile events like Miss GB’s wedding and collaborating with well-known names such as Ed Sheeran and Coleen Nolan.

My approach is discreet and natural. Using compact, silent cameras, I ensure nothing disrupts the atmosphere of your celebration. I dress to blend in, avoid directing or staging, and focus on capturing authentic moments with cinematic techniques and natural light.

Every couple has a unique story, and getting to know you is one of the best parts of what I do. Your wedding is a one-of-a-kind celebration, and I’m here to ensure those memories are preserved in a way that feels as special as the day itself.

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

Captured the emotion in the ceremony and the fun in the evening perfectly

We cannot thank James enough for the incredible wedding video he created for us. He perfectly captured the spirit of our day, from the ceremony to the evening celebrations, preserving every special moment beautifully. We are especially grateful to have the speeches recorded to relive forever!

James was early, professional, and discreetly captured so many wonderful moments without us even noticing. His friendly and relaxed nature made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera, which truly shines through in the video.

On top of that, he created some fun short Instagram reels that I’ve absolutely loved watching and sharing! They perfectly highlight the best moments of the day in such a creative way.

James was part of the family as soon as he walked through the door! He was so personable, friendly and his attention to detail was amazing.
We were so happy that James did our videography, he caught so many poignant moments of our day and did a wonderful compilation. So thrilled with the result!
Everyone needs a James for their wedding!

James was a true professional from start to finish, he guided us through the process completely stress free with a fun attitude and good vibes.

On the day James was unnoticeable yet perfectly in control of getting the best content to create such a beautiful video for us. All our guest mentioned how professional and relaxed James was.

WOW WOW WOW, what a service and man!!

As I say in the title, WOW WOW WOW!!! We are so glad that we used James and we have no regrets whatsoever. From the first time we contacted James he was so helpful, explained everything clearly, worked with us and communicated everything so simply and brilliantly. On the day he worked so hard, but without any fuss, to make sure he captured such beautiful memories. He always had a smile on his face and worked with us so beautifully that it put us at ease and we really enjoyed every moment. I was then expecting a bit of a wait to get the finished films, but no not with James. He worked tirelessly to get the footage over to us, always keeping in contact, and the results were just breathtaking!! I watched both my new wife and there were laughs, a few tears (hod tears) and things on the film that we had either forgotten or not taken in on the day!!!! If you are thinking of filming a special day, then seriously give James a call, you will not be disappointed!!! Said ut before, but from the bottom of our hearts a massive thank you for everything you did, was again an absolute pleasure and you are an absolutely legend. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!

Absolute Perfection

James is a super talented professional who really bonded with us from the start and understood exactly how we wanted things to look and feel on the day. Our vibe and personality was captured perfectly and the end results are fantastic. We didn’t even know he was there most of the time and he blended in so well. He’s so friendly and kind he felt like family. I would highly recommend James.

Thank you James

James was the videographer at our wedding in August 2024, London, which took place at two venues: the church and the reception. I recommend his services. Here are a few key points that stood out about his work:
1. Disciplined and Responsible: James is a very disciplined and responsible professional. He arrived early to capture footage of the empty streets before the ceremony, setting the mood beautifully. At the church, he prepared his video equipment well in advance. Anyone who has planned a significant event like a wedding knows how crucial it is to have reliable vendors who take your special day seriously.
2. Organized Workflow: James's work was well-organized. From our initial call to the final amendments of the video, everything was clear and timely. There were no delays, which made the entire process stress-free for us.
3. Client-Oriented: James is very client-oriented. He listened to our suggestions and made sure to incorporate our wishes into the final product. For example, I asked him to capture a moment with my groom's mother. He not only captured that interaction but also managed to catch her smile (she smiles not often now) which was incredibly meaningful to us.
4. Technical Expertise: James is an excellent videographer who stays updated with the latest trends in audio and video technology. The audio quality in our video is superb, thanks to the high-quality equipment he provided.
5. Hardworking: James worked tirelessly throughout the entire event, from before 10 a.m. until around 8 p.m. During both the church ceremony and the reception, he captured every significant moment and detail. He didn’t miss a thing and worked diligently every single minute.
As a result, we have amazing footage from which he created a stunning highlight movie
6. James' work was unnoticed. My groom was concerned that filming the event might be intrusive and feel like an endless Instagram shoot. However, in reality, James' approach was very subtle. We hardly noticed the filming, yet he was always around, capturing everything
7. James did very well with the music arrangement and superimposed the speeches onto the video

Exceptional!

There has not been a single person we have shown our wedding video to who has not been moved to tears! Jame’s attention to detail and ability to capture all those magical moments is unreal! He was able to encompass everything we were looking for in a video without even telling him much! He just knows!! James was also a pleasure to have on the day. He was super easy going and fun to hang out with….basically another guest! Don’t bother looking around for anyone else, just give him a call and you won’t regret it!!

A legendary videographer, fits in like a wedding guest, and produces incredible videos, capturing the essence of the day!

An absolute legend of a videographer!! James was such a gentleman in how he handled working with us - he was incredibly friendly and took every measure to make sure we felt comfortable with him. This paid off on our wedding day as from the start he slotted himself in very seamlessly. My wife and I even felt like he was a wedding guest - that was how comfortable we were with him! James was also great with working with our photographer, and together they worked amazingly. James gave great guidance, and at times it was just what we needed to have some extra special shots. Finally, James works so efficiently - our videos were finished within a week!!!! An absolute pleasure working with you James - I wish all the best for your career!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
