Q:  Videographer or Content Creator For Our Wedding

Wedding content creators vs. videographers:

they’re both fantastic, but they serve different roles in capturing your big day!

💨 Content creators specialize in fun, fast and real-time moments. They use phones to grab behind-the-scenes footage, candid clips and ready-to-post social media highlights. Their turnaround time? Crazy fast usually within 24–48 hours! Want instant reels, TikTok trends or bite-sized glimpses of your wedding? They’ve got you covered! But, and it’s a big but… it's small clips, the footage is unedited, no professional audio, not designed for the big screen and not something that would replace a beautifully edited wedding film, wedding higlight or your wedding photographs!

🎥 Videographers are storytellers. They use high-end cameras to capture deep emotions, cinematic visuals and crisp sound, delivering a polished, professional film that looks stunning on a 50-inch screen (or bigger!). Their films aren’t made for a quick upload, they’re made for lifelong memories, perfect for reliving your wedding day again and again. 

So, what’s the difference? Think chalk & cheese! They’re both awesome, but content creation is meant to complement Wedding Photography & Videography... not replace it.

If you love instant wedding content for socials, go for a content creator! But if you want a beautiful, cinematic film that you’ll cherish forever, hire a videographer. Or better yet get both!

That way, you can enjoy quick, fun snapshots while also having a professionally crafted wedding film to treasure for years to come.

Do you offer content creating some videographers & photographers do?

We focus entirely on crafting stunning wedding films so no, we don’t offer content creation ourselves. 

We believe in giving 100% to capturing every key moment with you, your family and your guests. Trying to juggle both videography and content creation could mean missing those once-in-a-lifetime shots and that’s not a risk we’re willing to take!

Content creation is best left to professional content creators that specialize in quick, social-ready clips.

Q: Are you full-time or part-time?

We’re not just videographers—we’re storytellers, capturing the laughter, the happy tears, and even that questionable dance move your best friend swore they’d never do. 🕺🎥

Operating from our commercial premises with a dedicated full-time team, we’re HMRC registered and fully insured because your wedding deserves professionals, not part-timers sneaking in a side gig

 for a bit of extra cash (often illegally yikes!), we do this for real—because your wedding deserves the best, not someone’s weekend hobby.

Because we take things seriously, we’ve got contingency plans, backup equipment, extra staff and everything you’d expect from professionals you can trust. No last-minute scrambling, no “oops, my camera died,” just smooth, stress-free filming of your big day.

Ready for a wedding film that looks straight out of a movie? 🎥✨ Let’s make some magic!

Q: Are you insured, can I see your insurance?

We are fully insured for:

Employers Liability - Health & Safety at Work - Premises Contents - Equipment Cover

Computer Breakdown - Business Interuption

 Professional Indemnity Insurance- Public and Products Liability £5 Million

(The later two are the most important for weddings)

Our Brokers are Morgan Richardson Policy No. AI19004222

We are happy to give any wedding booking or venue a copy of our insurances.

Q: When Can I Expect To Receive My Film?

We know you’re dying to relive the magic of your wedding day, and we’re on it! 🎥✨

From the moment we’ve captured your big day—or when you send us your hand-picked playlist of love songs (whichever comes later)—we aim to have your film fully edited within 16 weeks.

Now, we’ll be honest if it’s peak wedding season and our editors are drowning in footage of tearful vows and dance-floor showdowns, it might take a little longer. But trust us, every second of extra time means your wedding film gets that Hollywood-level polish.

So sit back, enjoy newlywed bliss, and leave the cinematic magic to us! 💕🎬

Q: Do I have To Provide The Videographers With a Meal?

We know weddings can be pricey, and some venues charge ridiculous fees for supplier meals. That’s why we never include it in our contract or expect you to provide food, no awkward obligations. 

We’re happy to head out somewhere local and grab something.

That said, if you do want to offer a meal, we’d be incredibly grateful! ✨

Q: How  Safe Is The Footage,  Memory Cards Can Fail.. Can't They?

We get it, technology can be unpredictable! Memory cards fail, hard drives decide to throw a tantrum… but don’t worry, we’ve got it all covered.

We take every precaution to ensure your wedding footage is safe and secure. Our professional cameras record on two separate memory cards, so there’s always a backup. Your wedding raw footage is stored on our office pro hard drive system whilst a 2nd copy is stored on a smaller hard drive at a different location and a 3rd copy of your raw files is kept in Dropbox Pro somewhere up in the clouds.

Why do we go to such lengths? Because you’ve trusted us with one of the most important days of your life, and we know just how precious those memories are. 🎥✨​

Q: How many videographers would film my wedding?

At every wedding that includes a full wedding film, we bring in at least two videographers—because why settle for one perspective when you can have a cinematic masterpiece? Whether it’s the grand entrance, the vows, or that epic dance-floor showdown between Uncle Bob and your bridesmaids, we make sure every angle is captured without guests accidentally photobombing your big moments.

During the photography session, one videographer sticks with the couple while the other mingles with your guests, ensuring no precious moment goes undocumented.
Your wedding film won’t just be recorded—it’ll be an experience. 🎥✨

And if you're feeling extra fancy, our Dream Package includes a drone pilot! Yep, that means sky-high shots of your venue, sweeping romantic moments, and aerial views that scream Hollywood-level production.

Q: Will you work with my photographer, do you reccomend Photographers?

Absolutely! We’re all about teamwork and making sure your wedding day runs smoothly. 🎥📸

We are always professional and super friendly to all suppliers and guests at a wedding.

We work seamlessly alongside photographers, always keeping things relaxed and professional.

The photographer takes the lead and when needed, we politely step in afterward to capture those small cinematic details that make your wedding film extra special.

No stress or drama, just a happy fun team dedicated to getting the best results for your big day together!

With over 23 years of experience, we’ve built great relationships with photographers and we’re proud to be recommended by over 19 photography companies.. a testament to how easy we are to work with!

Recommendations

And yes, if you’re looking for recommendations, we’ve got you covered! We can suggest photographers, content creators, pipers, candy carts, photo booths, DJs, bands, magicians, and more. But we only recommend the best suppliers who are fantastic at what they do and who go above and beyond for their couples, just like we do.

Need an honest recommendation or advice? Just ask! 😊

Q: Videographer v's Hybrid Photo / Video​

Hybrid photography and videography might sound like a great all-in-one solution, but it comes with big risks—especially when it comes to capturing the most important moments of your wedding day.

📸 The Hybrid Approach: This is when a photographer tries to juggle both photography and videography, capturing stills while also filming snippets for a highlight reel. Sounds convenient, right? But here’s the catch—key moments like walking down the aisle, exchanging rings, the first kiss, cake cutting and the first dance can’t be filmed and photographed at the same time on the same camera.

🎥 The Reality: If you go hybrid, you’ll likely find yourself redoing moments over and over—posing for photos, then waiting while the photographer switches settings to capture the same moment for video. That spontaneous, emotional magic? It gets lost in the process. 

🚨 The Risk: We’ve unfortunately had 7 couples that for some reason or another the photographer lost all or part of their wedding day & that's just us, we've heard it happening to so many other couples that we didn't film! Thankfully for our couples, we were able to recover missing photos from our 4K video footage (free of charge), but imagine if that backup didn’t exist—losing everything is not a risk we’d ever ask any couple to take.

💡 The Solution: A dedicated videographer ensures your wedding film is cinematic, seamless, and stress-free—without compromising your photography.

Q: Do you have business premises?

Since 2016, we’ve been based in the beautifully restored Old Victorian School House in Airdrie, now known as the Old School Business Centre. It’s the perfect hub for our editing team, offering air-conditioned comfort, disabled facilities, and top-tier security—including electric shutters, a door entry system, CCTV, and a manned fire & alarm system.

For couples, it’s a fantastic space to meet our team, view our work and discover how we can create a magical wedding film tailored just for you. Since we’re often out filming, we always recommend booking an appointment to ensure we’re available to chat!

Q: Should I Get Morning Prep?

Morning prep—love it or loathe it, the choice is yours!

Having a camera rolling during morning preparations adds a beautiful start to your wedding film, giving your partner a glimpse into all the pre-wedding fun that kicked off the day.

💄 Girls’ prep is always full of energy—makeup, hair, final touches and that big reveal moment. We capture the excitement, laughter and anticipation as the finishing touches come together.

🕺 Guys’ prep tends to be more laid-back—a mix of final touches and pre-wedding nerves! 

It’s usually a quick hair fix (if applicable!), a best mate adjusting the jacket, a spritz of aftershave and of course the classic last-minute jitters (or maybe a cheeky swig of courage juice to steady those nerves!). 🍻

We capture all the small but meaningful moments—the laughter, the anticipation and the little traditions that kickstart the day. Whether it’s a few deep breaths before heading to the ceremony or a power handshake between best friends, it all adds to the story of your wedding film!

Our most popular package doesn’t include morning prep, so the decision is completely yours!

Whether you want those behind-the-scenes moments or prefer to keep things private, we’ll make sure your wedding film is perfectly tailored to you.
