About

With a background in wedding photography, I'm perfectly placed to capture your day on video. My approach is candid - I'll be there to capture the moments as they happen, allowing you to focus on your day.

I love the idea that by capturing your wedding, I’m creating a spark to ignite your memories. A story told through my cameras using light, shadow, fun, emotion, and connection. My films are a beautiful, tangible reminder of your day after the vows have been said and the confetti’s been thrown.

I offer a five-minute highlight film, a 15 to 20-minute feature film, a ceremony film, and a speech film.

If you are looking for both photo and film, head to my photography and film page: Bigeye Photography

Amazing job!

We hired Marcus for both photography and videography and he did an absolutely incredible job with everything. We are obsessed with looking through the photos and rewatching our ceremony and speeches as well as our incredible highlight video.

He works incredibly unobtrusively and captures the emotion of the day so well. Nonetheless, we would still recommend doing the couple’s shoot before the wedding if you have any concerns about being photographed as it really helps to put you at your ease (we can see ourselves relax more into it the further into the shoot we got).

With a lot of experience behind him, having Marcus on your team is a real asset, as you know you can take his advice seriously. For this reason, we hired a second shooter and are really glad that we did.

Thanks again Marcus for a spectacular job.

So grateful for our incredible photos & videos... thank you Marcus!

We could not have asked for a better photographer and videographer for our wedding day! From the moment we met Marcus on Zoom, we knew he was going to be the the man for the job. Marcus was so much fun and it kept us so calm on the day knowing we were in great hands!

When Marcus started offering video footage, we knew we had to upgrade our package and we are so glad we did. He completely exceeded all of our expectations and we are so grateful to you Marcus, thank you!

Amazing! 10/10

Marcus was incredible theoughout the day, always with a smile on his face. We only decided to go ahead and book him for a wedding video a few days before, and boy did he deliver. We have the most beautiful videos to look back on forever, to a gorgeous quality. Thank you!

Marcus Ward Films without question made our wedding ❤️

Marcus
What can we say that will convey what a truly fantastic job you have done for us.
We were looking through your website and this caption you wrote caught our eye..

‘A story told through my camera using light, shadow, fun, emotion and connection. I love the idea that by capturing your wedding, I’m creating a spark to ignite your memories. My photographs are a tangible reminder of your day after the vows have been said and the confetti’s been thrown.’

This truly sums you, your work ethic, your professionalism and your end results up!

When you first sent us our wedding highlight video, we could not stop watching it, with tears of joy every time, without fail. But we thought it was just us, being caught up in the memories, so we put your video to the test. We set it up, so we were watching friends and families reactions when they watched it for the first time. We discovered it brought a tear to everyone, you really have created a masterpiece with our highlights video, capturing all the emotion. One that will be part of our most valued possessions.

Then we have our wedding pictures, set out in the most perfect way, accessible, organised and easy to store forever more. But the content of each picture is what blew us away, each one is an art composition in it’s own right, and for that reason, this is why it is so important for us to get across to anyone in the market for a wedding photographer, or a photographer of anything. Marcus comes very highly recommended by us. Since watching his talents at a friends wedding, to be lucky enough to book him for ours, to hanging out with him through the day, being gently Shepherded into being part of our beautiful pictures, and then being privileged to see the care and effort he has afforded us. The results really do speak for themselves.
Please take your time, find our highlights video, and make your own minds ups.
