Last update: May 2025

Hi, I’m John Corcoran. I film weddings in an unobtrusive and unscripted way, naturally filming the day as I see it unroll. I always feel privileged being asked to film a wedding - it is a day full of happiness and love, which the couple shares with all of the people close to them. I started my business, A Beautiful Day Productions, over 15 years ago to shoot weddings in Peterborough, Cambridgeshire and throughout the UK. In 2018, I won the prestigious award of wedding videographer of the year for the Eastern region.

I film using small professional Canon mirrorless cameras and lenses, capturing moments from a distance to record your special day. A Beautiful Day Productions offers a wedding film with a movie feel and touch for each film we produce.

The Highlights wedding Package. Full day filming (from preparations to the first dance), 8-10 minute 4K cinematic highlight film plus a 60-second preview video. £875

Our wonderful wedding video

We took a lot of time choosing a videographer, it was one of the decisions that made me feel overwhelmed, mainly because I knew after our day was over, the main things we'd have to cherish our day forever would be our photos and video.

After trawling through what felt like hundreds of videographers we found John, I watched a sample of his work and then set to finding him on Instagram to look at more! He captured our attention straight away - we wanted someone that could offer a full length video but also a trailer that we could share on social media... something John did very well, so got in touch with John to have a chat about the service he offered and to check that he was a good fit for us and our day!

On chatting to John we felt confident he could offer exactly what we wanted and in the blink of an eye our day arrive! We'd obviously met John over videocall in the run up to the wedding but the first time we met in person was on the big day, John is one of those people who you meet who is instantly warm, you feel like you could have known him years.

John seamlessly fitted into our day, we wanted someone that could manage to capture our day but without if feeling invasive and he had this down to a tee. He worked with our photographers to ensure they all got the content that they needed, meaning they each had the quality shots without fighting each other for them (trust me I've been at weddings where this was NOT the case)

John was there from us getting ready until after the band were playing away and checked with us that we were happy and we had everything and everyone we wanted included before he left- we couldn't have been any happier with how the day had gone and had no doubt that the final video would be incredible ❤️

A short few weeks after we received a trailer of our video and it captured our day perfectly, I couldn't even imagine how perfect the final video would be! After a few months wait (but still before the time frame John gave us) we received the most beautifully presented box in the post! Our wedding video but with an arrangement of goodies including a framed photo, chocolates and a mini bottle of prosecco- such a beautiful touch.

That night we sat down to watch and I cried for about 50% of it, the happiest of tears streaming down my face! My husband and I, our beautiful children, parents, grandparents and friends all there on the big screen, celebrating our day - it was perfect! The work John did managed to condense every important moment of our day into our video... and i couldn't be more greatful.

Having a videographer for us was an investment - something we originally didn't know if it was in our budget, but to have the ability to see all of the people we love, in one video celebrating one of the most important days of our lives is honestly worth its weight in gold and I can't thank John enough

Scrivelsby Garden Wedding 2024

Our day was captured beautifully!
From start to finish we were made to feel at ease and as though the camera wasn’t there (very important for two people not that comfortable in front of a camera but eager to capture our special day). John was really organised prior to the day, gaining info on our timeline, which helped with capturing the smaller details throughout the day. As a very nervous bride, I felt instantly calm and comfortable with John and he captured such beautiful moments, from the bridal party getting ready right through to the driver of our Rolls Royce, who I shared was a really important part of our family. He was kindly directive, which was really helpful for me and the groom who needed the direction to help us capture the shots!
We look back at our wedding videos and can see our personalities captured so wonderfully throughout. We got to enjoy some of the most amazing moments which we didn’t get to see on the day, due to being the bride and groom! The editing of the video was fantastic (and emotional) and we’re pleased John honoured our music choices! Initially not sure if we’d book a videographer, I’m so so pleased we did! It was worth every penny and we’re so grateful to have this core memory to look back at and enjoy in the future. Thank you so much 🤍

Unforgettable Memories!

We found John through a Google search and were immediately drawn to his advert videos and competitive pricing. After reaching out, he came to our home to discuss our vision for the day. He had in-depth knowledge of our wedding venues — Normanton Church in Rutland and our reception venue in Stilton — and offered valuable insight into what he could and couldn’t do. His communication was fantastic leading up to the wedding, always quick to answer any questions we had.

On the day, John arrived promptly and looked very professional. He was relaxed but professional throughout, blending seamlessly into the background, which allowed us to enjoy our day without feeling overwhelmed. A few weeks after the wedding, we received our 3-minute trailer video — it was pure joy! I’ve watched it countless times. John ensured we had the full video before Christmas, and it was magical to relive the day and see all the moments we missed. After Christmas, our 13-minute highlight video arrived, capturing all the special moments perfectly.

We absolutely love our videos and don’t regret booking John for a second. If you’re on the fence about hiring a videographer, do it — it’s absolutely worth the extra cost, and booking John is a decision you won’t regret. He’s professional, talented, and worth every penny!

John was amazing. Having him part of our amazing day was effortless. He guided us when needed, and stood back and captured the gorgeous moments with no one realising.
Everyone who watched our trailer cried, as it captured our day perfectly , and our full video is just so so special,

I can’t recommend John enough. Thank you for capturing our memories

Best wedding video ever!

We had the pleasure of working with John & Monika for our wedding in August, and they exceeded all expectations. From start to finish, their professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail were unmatched.

The video perfectly captured the emotions of the day—every laugh, tear, and special moment was beautifully preserved. They have an incredible eye and the editing was seamless and elegant.

They were a joy to work with: punctual, responsive, and so easy to communicate with. On the wedding day, they blended into the background while still capturing everything perfectly. The whole family loved them and they were great with our four kids. They worked hard all day which we might add was a very long one!

If you’re looking for a wedding videographer who will tell your love story with authenticity we wholeheartedly recommend John. We cannot thank you enough.

Holmewood Hall 13th July 2024

We had the wedding of our dreams! A truly magical day. A beautiful day production were instrumental in making this happen. John & Monika are a dynamic pair. Professional, talented, creative, approachable & I felt they truly listened to what was important to us for our wedding video. Nothing was too much trouble & they understood exactly what we wanted as they took time to get to know us, make notes at our initial meeting & remember all the little details that make for a unique video, tailored to us the wedding couple, as we are all unique individuals. Our completed wedding video in it’s entirety made me cry tears of pure joy!! Importantly they are discreetly in the background, capturing special moments without us even realising they were there!! I cannot recommend A Beautiful Day Production highly enough!!! John & Monika you rock!!!! 😊

The MOST talented videographers 🎥

A Beautiful Day Productions were perfect. The mini-video they created for Instagram has so far had over 26-THOUSAND (26.6k) views! So it’s not just our friends and families who love the video they produced
😊 The wedding preview is incredibly high-quality and romantic, with lovely ethereal music. My husband and I must have watched it 100 times! 😅 (Here is the website link, if you’re curious: https://vimeo.com/990917354)

The longer wedding video captured the feel of our wedding so well that it really does feel like we’re back there again when we watch it!

On the day, John and Monika were so discreet, and worked very well with our photographers. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with lovelier people, and we hope you get the chance to work with them on your Big Day, too!

Thank you again John and Monika for everything you did for us before, during and after our wedding day! Tesh and Callum Hibbert

John made our dreams come true by creating the most beautiful and authentic wedding trailer and highlights reel. From the first enquiry he was professional and helpful to a fault! He couldn’t have done more for us. On the day he was so professional and the end product is more than we could have ever hoped for!

Incredible

We were lucky enough to have John and Monika filmed our wedding last July. We won their services through a competition they ran, we could not believe our luck and the kindness and generosity of them both! Throughout the whole process they were professional and put us completely at ease, we are so so pleased we have our amazing wedding video to look back on and re-live our special day. I would recommend John and Monika to anyone - it really is worth it to watch back your wedding day and we couldn't have had any one better to film this for us!

Captured Beautifully for us to remember forever

After knowing John for many years as my form tutor from school, seeing him at my friends wedding capturing her day and the beautiful results she received it was a no brainer to ask him to be apart of our big day.
John was professional, welcoming and knowledgable of our venue, the adaptations due to the weather on the day, and how to capture the natural environment of people enjoying themselves without it looking staged.
We was extremely pleased with the outcome of our videos, the turn around and the memories he has helped us capture for a lifetime, especially those of us spending the time with family who we have now sadly lost. The ideas of how to adapt to the weather showed the strength of knowledge and care John puts into your special day. I can't thank John enough for the experience and outcome of making our day stay with us forever and I would 100% recommend to anyone having a wedding a videographer will help those memories last forever.
