OK SO, WHY ARE WE CALLED NINE18 WEDDING FILMS I HEAR YOU ASK?

Ok let’s take a trip back to 1993.. May 6th to be more precise…

I had been waiting on the right time to make my move and tonight seemed like the best time so I asked Angela (my now wife) out.

At first she thought I was kidding on… this continued for a while so at one point I said… look, it’s 9:18, if I am kidding, I’ll stop now, you won’t hate me… she nodded, I paused, then I asked her out…“I’ll think about it”, she said…That was the Thursday night…

Fast forward to the Sunday evening and we’re at a friend’s house and she leans over and says “Yes”.

I looked at my watch, it was 9:18 – that was over 31yrs ago…

Ten years after that, we got married at Blairquahan Castle. Married on our ten year anniversary, a genius move if you ask me. Means I wouldn’t forget our wedding anniversary and I only had to buy one card lol. I mean who says romance is dead 🙂

a little bit more about Me

More than just your wedding videographer.

Picking the right person to film your wedding is no easy task, I know, I watched hours of wedding tapes and DVDs back in the day. Today the main difference is you have social media to allow you to whittle down the potential candidates.

Your creative team (videographer, photographer) will be with you anywhere from 8-12hrs on your wedding day so you have to like them. Rapport is essential here because you want to feel relaxed and able to enjoy yourselves so that’s why I have RULE NUMBER ONE.

RULE NUMBER ONE is the most important rule and you must follow it or you’ll make the bald guy cry, possibly.  

{Rule Number One states: It’s your day, you’re in charge}

I will never ask you to act differently, as a couple, just to get the shot. You want to enjoy the experience not hate it so it’s ok to say “no”. When you watch your film back you want to see the real you but in fancy clothes, not two people that look like you but are not acting the way you normally do. Example being, not everyone is comfortable with public displays of affection so being asked to go in for a wee kiss gives them the ick. 

I also help the guys make sure they look dapper as in the kilts, there’s currently 23424 ways to tie kilt shoe laces and none of them stop the laces from falling down during the day. True story.
