On Hitched.co.uk since 2024

Last update: July 2026

At SteerMedia, I create cinematic, documentary-style wedding films that reflect the unique emotion and energy of your day, without awkward poses or staged moments. I work quietly in the background to capture the real smiles, tears, and laughter, turning them into timeless stories you'll want to watch over and over again.

I'm James, a passionate filmmaker based in Leigh-on-Sea, Essex, serving couples across Essex, London, Kent, and beyond. I use industry-leading equipment (Sony FX3) to deliver high-quality, 4K wedding films that feel like a romantic short movie - starring you.

🎬 What's Included

My full-day videography package includes:

  • Coverage from prep to party – including first dance
  • A 5–8 minute cinematic highlight film
  • A 1-minute teaser video delivered within 1–4 days
  • Full speeches videos
  • Drone footage (weather and venue-permitting)
  • Professional audio recording
  • Online delivery of all films in 4K

All videos are carefully edited and delivered via a private online gallery for easy sharing with friends and family.

🤝 Why SteerMedia?

With over 4 years' experience, I've filmed many incredible love stories - each one personal and different. I take time to get to know you both, so your film reflects your personalities and the atmosphere of the day. Couples describe my approach as non-intrusive, relaxed, and reassuring.

I'm always happy to chat about your vision - whether it's a countryside barn wedding or an elegant London celebration.

Best decision we made for our wedding

For us, a great videographer isn’t just someone who films a wedding — it’s someone who gets it. Someone who notices the emotions behind the moments, the quick glances, the laughter, the nerves, and all the little bits of warmth that make the day what it is.

It’s the storytelling. The creative instinct.

And James has all of that. From the moment we met him, he had this calm, professional energy that instantly put us at ease. He captured our day with so much care and genuine talent that watching our film feels like stepping right back into those moments. He didn’t just make a video — he gave us something we’ll cherish forever.

Thank so much James. Wish you all the best.

Amazing videographer!

James was absolutely amazing as our wedding videographer! We are so happy with the footage we got back. James listened to our needs and was so kind in achieving our requirements for our video. He was so quick in getting our videos back to us after the wedding. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him!

Thank you for our dream wedding videos!

If you’re unsure about booking James as a videographer - just do it! We are absolutely over the moon with the videos from our wedding and have had so many compliments from our guests.

James is an incredibly lovely man which made it a pleasure to have him there with us on our special day. He made sure to get everything we wanted and he needed to be captured without making a fuss or drawing too much attention on the day itself - we couldn’t believe how many great shots he captured that we had no idea about.

He turned the highlights video around within a couple of days and the quality on all videos is second to none. James was also super attentive and happy to make any small tweaks we wanted.

We were originally on the fence about having a videographer but, after seeing James’s portfolio, we knew we had to book him and have zero regrets.

These videos are something we’ll treasure for the rest of our lives - we can’t thank you enough, James!

Thanks for everything!

We found James on Facebook fairly last-minute, and were so lucky that he was available for our wedding day! We really loved his immersive, cinematic style and were thrilled with how beautifully the final video captured the energy of the day (a special thank you for the stunning drone shots!)

James was also great about setting up a pre-wedding chat to go over what was most important to us (like having a full unedited version of the ceremony), which we really appreciated.

James is a talented and passionate videographer, and we’re excited to see his work grow! Thanks again for everything! ❤️

Wedding videography

James went above and beyond for our wedding day. He was professional, listened to what we wanted, was nonintrusive and made us feel at ease. Communication was on point and we received the most beautiful videos of our special day. We can not recommend James enough to anyone wishing their special day/event to be captured.
