Your wedding day is one of the most special days of your life. We get them occasionally, those big moments that mark the passage of our lives and track out our history for us. And when they are over, they are something that we will want to look back on, to recall in detail, to re-experience and dwell on at leisure. A truly great wedding video allows you to do that. And not only to look back at the things you remember, but to discover other small details and touching little moments that you had in fact missed, given that you were so frenetically busy at the time! Imagine if you have your big day, it’s amazing, moving, fun, stimulating, beautiful, emotional, a blast.
Then you settle down into married life and the wedding video arrives. It’s disappointing. Jerky images, stiff-necked guests not sounding a bit like their natural selves, blurred coverage of some of the most crucial moments, distorted audio. Nothing could be more disappointing, could it? If you want to guarantee that your wedding video will be professionally shot, beautifully executed, sharply edited, perfectly focused, creative, inventive, sensitively filmed and natural feeling, then Bloomsbury Films are the company for you.
Our highly skilled videographers don’t miss a thing. Our use of at least two cameras guarantees a choice of angles for those crucial highlights. Our professional editing suite means that your footage will be expertly cut. Our promise to you is a wedding video that you will cherish always, and be proud to invite family and friends over to share it with you time and again. We like to keep you firmly at the centre of the whole process, from conception to execution. We’ll chat to you and find out what you want. Check out our website here for help and advice.
What is great videography? Is it a case of turning on a video camera, sticking it in the right direction at some exciting activity or other, and pressing record? Nope. Is it the difference between doing all that with a shaking hand or with a rock-steady hand? Nobody wants wobbly visuals in their video do they? So does eliminating the wobbles make the difference between poor videography and great videography? Nope. Okay then, is it a case of eliminating the wobbles and making sure the audio is consistent and clear? Does that make for great videography? Nope. Well, how about eliminating the wobbles, getting crystal clear audio and making sure you catch all the important action? That must surely make for great videography? Again, we here at Bloomsbury Films would answer, nope! If you manage to do all of the above things you are probably going to achieve the level of pretty good videography.
Certainly, chances are you’ve dragged your video out of the very poor videography level, the kind that will have your audiences coming up with any old excuse to leg it for home. Sorry, left the cat in the dishwasher, got to go – that kind of thing. But it still won’t be what we would call truly great videography. And that’s all we are interested in really – being the best, creating the greatest videography possible and doing it with style and finesse. And we believe in story. That’s what we believe differentiates between very good videography and great videography – telling a story that will captivate an audience. Doesn’t matter what the story is – that depends on the story you want to tell.
But story is central, crucial, and story is what sets Bloomsbury Films apart. Check out our Videography FAQs and learn more about this fascinating creative art form.

There’s more to top-rate wedding filming than first meets the eye. It might look very easy. Take a camera, point it at the action, press record, but those in the know will realise that this is a very simplistic view of matters.
Truly great wedding filming is an art form, and is as much about people as it is about equipment and technical know-how. Not that we don’t have those in abundance. We do, as a quick look at our videography articles will confirm. Our London editing suite is first class, with editing facilities worthy of a movie production company. Our staff are highly skilled and thoroughly trained in the creative and technical sides of our business. Our Director’s Cut package offers a service second to none. The delight on our clients’ faces when they see the final product is testament to our skill, and if you watch a few of the sample videos on our website we’re sure that you’ll agree that our quality speaks for itself. But there is even more to it than that.
Wedding filming is, above all else, something that happens on your wedding day. And nothing is more important than you, and the wedding itself. That’s where our people skills and professionalism come into it. We won’t take over your day, won’t make your guest uncomfortable and stiff-necked in the face of intrusive cameras and bright lights. Subtlety is our strength. We will merge into your day in a seamless fashion that will leave everybody relaxed and allow us to capture the very best footage in the most natural way. And that’s why our wedding filming is a cut above the rest. Because we understand that this is your day. Our job is to preserve it for you in its true form, and we do it beautifully.
When you have enjoyed the food, the drink, the speeches, the companionship, the romance and the reunion with cousins and aunts who you haven’t clapped eyes on since the last family wedding more than a year ago when great uncle Brian dislocated his shoulder swinging his octogenarian wife around the dance floor, what you will most want to do is catch your breath then live it all over again. Sad to say, once it’s over, it’s over, and there’s no going back in time to re-experience that lovely moment when the bride arrived resplendent in her finery and the groom’s jaw dropped open as he laid eyes on his future wife. Or to hear again the touching sincerity in the bride’s voice as she professed her vows, or the pride in the groom’s as he professed his.
And what about the preparations, when mother and daughter sat together quietly and prepared to change their family unit forever? All of these things can come only the once, but with a professionally produced wedding DVD you can revisit these moments over again and again, so you needn’t miss a thing. With a wedding DVD you can invite around friends and family to share the event with you all over again. Together you can laugh at the awful jokes, smile at the sweet moments, shed a tear at the emotional highlights. And Bloomsbury Films produce the greatest wedding DVDs in the business. Whatever type of wedding you hold – Asian, Greek, Nigerian, Civil Service – our teams can blend into your day and capture the real flavour of your event, the real character of your individual day.
We work all over the country and indeed across the world. For details of our regional coverage please visit our website for further information.
If, like many people we come across, you are not quite sure what a videographer is or what a videographer does, then browse our videography articles here for more information.
We’ve spoken to people who had no idea what the term videographer means. And we’ve spoken to people who understood it to refer to the person or persons behind the camera recording a video. In fact, that seems to be most people’s understanding of what a videographer is and does. Hold the camera, point, and shoot. Well, as I’m sure a brief look at our website will clarify for you, there is a whole lot more to videography than simply holding a camera and pointing it at some activity or other – whether that be a wedding, a corporate event, or simply a family occasion that you will want to remember forever. Anybody with access to a video camera can do that, can’t they? Not difficult. But then again, we’ve all seen the results haven’t we? Wobbling lens, lost audio, decapitated subjects, blurred visuals, endless patches of uninteresting content.
We’ve all been subjected to such material too, while visiting friends and relatives and being dragged into a viewing that will leave all but the most personally smitten viewer twitching and reaching for their car keys. But when your material has been gathered and edited, and cut and polished, and creatively crafted together by one of our professional and talented videographers, then it’s a different story altogether. For a start, it will be a story, not just a mish-mash of activity. And as with any good storyline, our videographers here at Bloomsbury Films have the knack of drawing in their audience and holding them long after the final credit has rolled by. Pass around the popcorn. Your guests are here to stay.
We here at Bloomsbury Films know all about the importance of good team work. Our teams work with each other in a positive, tactful, professional way designed to bring all their combined skills together in whatever way will best serve our clients. Companies who agree with our belief in the importance of good team work will take the trouble to hold team building events for their staff. And those who really care about good team work will also take the trouble to engage the services of a professional videography company to attend the event and create a team building video that will not only act as a record of the event, but will also provide a wealth of material that your staff can reflect upon long after the actual event is over.
Most of us learn not just by doing, but also by reflecting on what we have done, and an effective team building video gives you the perfect opportunity to do just that. There is nothing like a visual record to really bring home what any given action or interaction looked like, allowing participants to review their responses from an outsider’s perspective – enabling true objectivity and cool logic to be applied to one’s own behaviour. Not something you can achieve as an active participant in a given moment. Or maybe you don’t want to use the record in such an instructive way.
Perhaps you just had such a great a time you want to relive it all over again. Whatever your agenda, if you consider your team important enough to hold a team building event for, then you surely realise that they are important enough to create the very best team building video for them. And you can do that by hiring our team at Bloomsbury Films to do the job for your team.

Where are you thinking of holding your Russian wedding ceremony? Manchester or Moscow? St. Petersburgh or St. Clements? Do you dream of basking in the unpredictable spring sunshine of the UK, or huddling tight in wrappings of fur to keep out the snows of winter-bound Russia? Wherever you decide to take your vows, whatever the climate and conditions, Bloomsbury Films can be there creating the perfect Russian wedding video for you to peruse and enjoy at leisure long after the last toast has been proposed and the last dance has been danced. Our team of videographers will consult closely with you to ensure that they are fully conversant with your individual ideas and desires for your own personalised Russian wedding video.
They will use this information to tailor your video to your own wishes, so that the DVD you are presented with at the end of the process will be one from which you will derive long-lasting pleasure and one which you will be thrilled to share with your loved ones and friends. Our videographers on the ground will use at least two cameras to capture all the details of your event, and they will do so in a tactful and discreet manner that doesn’t have your guests feeling on display, but creates a relaxed and natural atmosphere that will spill over into the video itself. This footage, which will include both the big and small moments of your day, will be taken to our video editing suite in London where our talented cutting editors will create a record of your day that you will treasure always.
