TWO shooters (rare in other standard videography packages), all day attendance, from preparation to 30 mins after the first dance (however long that ends up being), a 5 minute, 4K film delivered in an engraved wooden box/USB stick, drone footage (where possible), years of experience, friendly, interested service and years of media/theatrical experience. Not bad for a given eh?

R. Brookes Film Full Description

Cinematic wedding films from a filmmaker, not a videographer. Two cinematographers as standard, and only six weddings a year.

I'm Rick, and I make wedding films, not wedding videos. I came to weddings after years in professional broadcast and the arts, and I bring the same craft to your day: considered composition, honest sound and a story with a real beginning, middle and end.

Every wedding I film has two cinematographers as standard, me and my second shooter, Andy. That's rare in wedding film, and it makes all the difference. While one of us is with you at the altar, the other is catching your mum's face, your best friend's tears and the moments you'd otherwise never see. We work discreetly and dress smartly, and we stay out of your way so you can simply enjoy your day.

Your day is filmed in 4K on full-frame cameras, with aerial drone footage where the weather and venue allow and professional microphones for your vows and speeches. I then edit and colour-grade it myself into a film worthy of the big screen, with music chosen for you as a couple.

Because I edit every film personally, I take on no more than six weddings a year, so no couple's story is ever rushed. I'm based in Leeds and film across Yorkshire, the UK and abroad.

If you'd like a film that feels like your day and nobody else's, tell me your story. I'd love to hear it.

FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

It's always your first, isn't it? (hem)

The Crossleys in Chichester, 2008. Huge, touching, sprawling, magical and heartfelt. What more could I have asked for?

What about your business are you most proud of?

Our artistry and originality. Nothing is needless. Nothing is inappropriate.

What is your No.1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Start early and trust your early dreams.

A great late idea with no time to execute, remains just that. A great idea.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

It starts with a questionnaire. I get the bare bones. Then after maybe a couple of emails, we'll pencil in a talk, either in person or video chat. This is where I really get to know you both. After that, I leave you to your other thoughts so that you can rest assured, the film is dealt with.

What is the one film you wish you had directed and why?

A Single Man

Totally classy, simple, understated. Like anything I've ever tried to do, story is king, and boy does it show.

What is your favourite soundtrack to put to a wedding video?

This will be as different as the couple.

And you'll be glad to know, royalty free too, so you can share it wherever you like.

Describe how you got into videography.

Using the most basic of camera trickery, my big brother would make himself disappear and interact with copies of himself on TV.

I was only 8 but I HAD to know the secret. Combine this with a great love of music videos and visual art, and off we went.
