Wedding Videos

Cavell & Samantha - Wedding Video Highlights


In late 2024 I gained my first bit of experience as a wedding videographer.
In line with the couples preferences, I approached this project from a very fly on the wall type perspective. This allowed them to enjoy their special day without any notable interference from me, while I weaved myself in and around the days festivities. 
I was able to document
all aspects of the day from wedding preparations, hair and make up, early in the morning right through the ceremony, speeches, and well after the first dance, into the early hours of the following morning.

Passion Projects

Project: Sevastopol (Alien: Isolation edit)


Comprised of my own in-game screen recordings. In which I positions and moved the main character to frame and conduct various angles, movements and compositions.
I produced this video during the latter half of 2021 to practice with more complex edits and denser timelines prior to purchasing my first camera. And I'll be frank, I just love this game.

​

To top it all off, when I initially posted this video - on my older account at the time - I received a surprise complimentary email from Alistair Hope, the creative director of Alien: Isolation from Creative Assembly.
