Amber ReelWedding films

Service

Two hours, one location, and a short film before the main one

A pre-wedding shoot gives you a 60 to 90 second film and, more usefully, teaches you both what it feels like to be filmed, so on the day you forget we are there.

We meet somewhere that means something to you: the park where you got engaged, the street you first lived on, the beach you keep going back to. There is no posing. We walk, we talk, we film the bits in between, and we come away with a short piece cut to licensed music that works as a save-the-date, a welcome film at the reception or simply something to keep.

The real value is the practice. Couples who have done a pre-wedding shoot stop noticing the camera about twenty minutes into the wedding morning. Couples who have not can take until the speeches. If you are nervous about being filmed, this is the fix.

Shoots run for two hours in daylight, ideally the hour before sunset. Travel inside the M25 is included; beyond that we charge mileage at 45p a mile. Golden-hour slots in summer go quickly, so book this when you book the wedding.

FAQ

Questions about engagement and pre-wedding shoots

Do we need to prepare anything?

Wear something you feel good in and that you can walk in. Bring a dog if you have one. We handle the rest, including a wet-weather plan.

Can the shoot be at our wedding venue?

Yes, if the venue allows it, and it doubles as a recce for us. Some venues charge for access outside an event; we will ask.

Have a date? Ask whether we are free.

Send the date and venue and we reply the same day, usually within the hour between 8am and 10pm.
