About films with Clare...

These highlight films are an 'add on' available to any photography package with Lake District Photographer, Clare Gelderd.

I shoot hybrid (photographs and film) single handedly (well with two hands actually), meaning there is just me. I am relaxed, fun and very much part of your day. Shooting hybrid means I switch between photo and video all day, to be honest the longest film snippet I do is around 15 seconds, then I'm back taking photographs. So if you are looking for a less in your face approach to your film and photography, this is a great option for you. 

Focusing purely on the couple and the details of their special day, with no extended coverage of the ceremony, speeches or guests. No mic's, no tripods set up all around the room; just simple subtle,  documentary film as your day unfolds by your photographer. Edited in a cohesive style to your wedding photographs, ensuring both photography and film sit side-by-side comfortably.
I have to be crystal clear, If you want hours of footage, full speeches, full ceremony, and hours of footage, then you need to book a professional videographer.

These highlight films are the perfect length to overview your special moments, with depth, emotion and an artistic finish. My approach to film is that you reliving the meaning and moments of your day without endless lengths of footage.
Ideal for sharing on social media and with friends and family worldwide.

Highlight films are available in 2 coverage lengths:

  • 2-3 minute mini film
  • 10-12 minute wedding highlights film (Only available for wedding coverage over 5 hours)

Is the photography and film hybrid option for you?...

  •  Your having an intimate wedding and want something to share with friends and family worldwide
  • You've invested heavily in your wedding day and like the idea of a film, but can't justify / don't like the idea of a full wedding film or film team at your wedding
  • You want just one person with a camera (or 2) capturing your day subtly and keeping you at ease.
  • You are looking for a film that is cohesive with your photographs
  •  You are happy with your guests to film your speeches if they choose on their phones, and you aren't too worried about having them filmed.
  •  You love movement, having fun and not staring into a lens

Things to remember...

 

  •  You WON'T get any speeches filmed
  • There will be no full length ceremony filmed, only a sprinkling of beautiful bits
  • I WON'T film everything, shooting hybrid means there are elements I can and will miss
  •  Your wedding film is built around how I perceive your wedding day
  •  I CAN'T just use a particular song you want, again it is built around the emotions, and flow of yours day, so I select fitting music to allow for the film to flow
  • It will be great fun
  • You don't need a huge film / photography team to receive stunning galleries and films
  • no RAW film footage is provided
