Capturing love, laughter and everything in between

Now taking bookings for 2024 & 2025

Hi, my name’s Daniel and I’m an award winning wedding videographer based in the UK.

Since the start of my career, I’ve been fortunate enough to document over one hundred weddings and counting, from intimate ceremonies to grand celebrations, I have had the privilege to travel all over the world capturing love stories in many beautiful locations, stunning venues - or even just the local pub!

My approach to wedding videography is rooted in storytelling. I believe that every day has its own unique narrative and it's my mission to bring that story to life through moving image. I strive to create films that not only showcase the wedding day itself but also reflect the personalities, emotions, and unique dynamics of the couple and their loved ones.

My goal is to provide you with a seamless and stress-free experience, ensuring that you can relive the magic and emotions of your wedding day for many years to come.

“You fitted in our day perfectly and made us both feel at such ease, it’s like you were part of the family. The moments and emotions you have captured are truly incredible and you’ve given us memories that will last a lifetime. We’re forever grateful and feel so lucky that we found you to film our wedding.”

My Approach

When it comes to capturing weddings, I'm in my element. I’m a big softy at heart who loves a party, and there’s just something that resonates with me witnessing two people declare their love for each other whilst surrounded by their nearest and dearest - and then wrapping it all up with a huge celebration.

I understand the importance of preserving authenticity which is why I always strive to blend seamlessly into the background of your day, allowing you and your guests to enjoy every moment without feeling conscious of being filmed. By adopting this candid approach, I’m able to capture the raw emotions that often happen spontaneously, and it is my goal to preserve those magical, fleeting instances so that you can cherish them forever.

I shoot with modern 4K cameras and lenses, with the inspiration behind my work coming from classic movies rather than the latest trend. Taking this approach you can rest assured that the films you receive will stand the test of time and look as great in 50 years as they do now.

Pricing

To keep things simple I have one, all-inclusive videography package, which includes:

£2500

A £250 deposit is required to secure your date and the final balance is due 28 days before your wedding.

Testimonials

“All we can say is WOW- we are recommending Made to Last Films to everyone we know planning a wedding!

What you don’t realise in advance, as a bride and groom is how the day will go by in a flash and you can’t possibly experience all of it. However, Dan captures it all and you get to re-live what goes by so quickly, all over again, as much as you like.

On the day itself, Dan is the nicest guy you could possibly have around, and yet you wouldn’t even know he’s there as he is so discreet and doesn’t make it feel like he constantly has a camera in your face. He is so talented at editing what he captures to give you the perfect summary of the day! His style is the best we’ve ever seen! All of our family absolutely loved it and we will watch it every year on our wedding anniversary. By far the best investment you can make for your wedding and booking Dan is the best decision we made! Thank you so much, Dan!”

— Jon & Hazel

“From the first time meeting Dan I knew straight away he'd be the one to film our wedding day!

Dan is one lovely lovely human, & WOAH were we blown away by our films. As a professional photographer myself I am incredibly visually & emotionally driven, and Dans attentional to detail and talent for really capturing the emotion of the day was just second to none, it was like watching some big time movie. Dan completely told the story of our dream of a day.

On the day Dan knew exactly where to be at the right time, and was not one bit intrusive at any point... in fact we'd consider him part of our guests, he had some lovely chats with us & our family & friends.

We can't thank you enough Dan! We wish we could do it all over again.... and you'd be the one to capture it second time around too!”

— Eve & Patrick

“We can't recommend this guy enough! Dan is honestly amazing at what he does and if you are searching for your videographer you can stop now at Made to Last films!

What he has produced is better than we ever thought. He has captured the day so brilliantly and beautifully, we were blown away! We really do live the whole day, and the feelings and emotions we felt on the day whilst watching the film back. I don't think we have watched it once without a box of tissues!

We didn't want somebody in our face on the day, directing us this way and that, and Dan just slotted into the role that we needed perfectly and the result is amazing. He was always where he needed to be, capturing everything but never intrusive. We also had such a laugh with him and he is just generally a great guy and a pleasure to have had with us all day.”

Get in touch.

I take on a maximum of 30 weddings per year to ensure the couples I work are always receiving the best experience possible. If you are considering me to capture your wedding please do not hesitate to get in touch as dates are often taken 1-2 years in advance. I am now almost fully booked for 2024 and over 60% booked for 2025.

“Daniel really is incredible at what he does. His ability to encapsulate the emotion, laughter and love of our special day is nothing short of remarkable. The way he has transformed fleeting moments into a cinematic masterpiece has left us in awe and we feel so incredibly lucky that he was there to capture our day.”

FAQs

  • It's recommended to book a wedding videographer as soon as you finalise your wedding date and venue. Videographers are often booked 1-2 years in advance, so securing your date early is ideal.

  • The turnaround time for wedding videos is never more than 12 weeks after the wedding, although the exact time can vary depending on the time of year and the specifics of each wedding.

  • Yes, drone shots are included in the videography package and there’s nothing more I love than capturing some nice aerial shots of your venue! However, it's important to note that the availability of drone is subject to the location and weather conditions on the day. Safety and compliance with local regulations are top priorities, and in some cases (for example, if your venue is near an airport or it’s raining) drone shots may not be possible. We can discuss the specific details and any additional considerations regarding drone shots during our planning discussions.

  • I mostly work alone as a videographer as it allows me to maintain the highest quality and consistency across your wedding films (all of the films on my website were captured by just me!). Working alone also allows me to be more discreet and blend in seamlessly with the wedding, ensuring a comfortable and natural atmosphere for everyone involved. If necessary, I'm happy to split my morning to capture both the bride and groom getting ready and this is something we would discuss before your day.

  • Your wedding films will be delivered to you in two formats. First, you will receive an online gallery where you can easily view, download, and share your wedding films with family and friends. Additionally, for safekeeping a hard copy of your films will be provided on USB stick (I know these are getting pretty dated now but I love the idea of you having a tangible copy to keep in your wedding box once the dust has settled!).
