When planning your London wedding you’re spoilt for choice. There’s so much in terms of: venues, entertainment, fashion and extras to add to your shopping list that you forget about one of the most important things… the wedding video.

With London being the cutting edge city, Londoners are now aware of the distinction between wedding photography and wedding videography. Photography gives you stylised images but a wedding video that’s been shot by professional wedding videographers will capture the atmosphere, sounds, mood, humour and action that it will actually be reliving the day again. London is a hectic enough place as it is but a London wedding is so busy and manic that you may miss your wedding!

This is where wedding videos become important, our style of wedding videography at Bloomsbury films is observational; when you watch it back you get to experience it the way a guest would. London is perhaps one of the most multicultural cities in the world and so we have shot a vast array of wedding videos across many cultures and religions. Whatever type of London wedding video, chances are we have shot something similar already so contact us for a sample DVD.

How can you tell the difference between good videography and bad videography? It’s not a trick question. You don’t have to be a film student to know the difference. For starters, good videography captures the mood of the occasion, not just the sights and sounds. It makes you feel like you are there. It’s truthful. It does justice to the event itself.

Have you ever been to a great wedding? The kind that people talk about years later. And did you then watch the wedding video and recoil in horror at the lousy shots? Was that aunt Helen or cousin Phil? With that dark, grainy footage, who can tell? You don’t have to be an expert to know that’s bad.

Good videography means that you will want to watch that video over and over again, like any great film. Bad videography means that you will stick it on the shelf behind the Prison Break DVDs and never show it to anyone!

At Bloomsbury Films, we only do good videography in gorgeous high definition. Frankly, we don’t see the point in anything less. We leave that up to the other guys.
