Auckland wedding videographer One person behind every film.
I film and edit every wedding I take on, from your first enquiry to the day your film arrives. No subcontractors. No handoffs.
I've been making films since I was a teenager.
Growing up in Auckland, I spent most of my spare time with a camera - short films, skate videos, anything that moved. Wedding filmmaking has always stood out to me because I love storytelling. There is something really special about being able to capture one of the biggest days of someone's life in a way that they can relive the emotions for years to come.
I run this studio as a solo operator by choice. Not because I can't scale, but because I believe story-driven wedding films are better when the person behind the camera has been with you for every moment of the day - the nerves in the getting-ready room, the real laugh during the ceremony, the look your partner gives you before the speeches.
I'm based in Auckland and regularly film on Waiheke Island and across the wider region. If your wedding is further afield, ask; travel is quoted up front.
Start to finish, it's me.
At a lot of studios, the person you enquire with, the person who films and the person who edits are three different people. Here it's one, at every stage.
-
Enquiry
I reply to every enquiry myself, usually within one business day, with availability and a quote.
-
Planning
Your wedding brief tells me the people, the timeline and the moments that matter. I arrive knowing your day, not just the address.
-
Wedding day
I film the whole day myself, quietly, with wireless audio on both of you from the first look to the speeches.
-
Edit
I edit every frame. Your vows and speeches become the spine of the story, not a soundtrack under the music.
-
Delivery
Your film arrives on the date I gave you, on a private page with direct downloads.

"On the day he blended in so naturally that we hardly noticed the cameras, yet he somehow managed to capture every important moment, all the emotions, and the little details that made the day special."
What I don't compromise on.
Unobtrusive by design.
Unobtrusive coverage means I blend into the background and move quietly through your day - working closely with your photographer and prioritising what unfolds naturally over what's directed. The moments that matter most are rarely the posed ones.
Audio is non-negotiable.
Vows and speeches are the emotional core of a wedding film. Wireless lavaliers on both of you, a direct feed from the PA and on-camera ambient audio, all running at once, with an independent backup recording on every ceremony. I have never lost audio on a wedding day.
Deliver what I promise.
I stick closely to my delivery timelines, stay in communication throughout the process, and make sure there are deliverables along the way - so you have something in hand well before the final film arrives.
