as the wedding season draws to an end, i’ll spend the next 3 months or so, curating films from the days i’ve been granted the pleasure of capturing this year 📽️

over the past few weeks, i’ve pondered on what it means to be a documentary wedding film maker, asking myself…

what emotion do I want the end product to invoke? the emotions myself and the couple felt on the day. who is the film for? most certainly my couples & not for instagram content. do I construct moments or do I stand back and let the wedding unfold, from the sideline? small vs big moments, intimate vs public moments, to me each require a different approach but in essence, the moment and the day, always comes before the film. this sometimes means sacrificing perfect light, perfect timing, perfect framing, to notice the beautiful subtleties that are right in front of us.

here are a handful of VHS moments from lottie & david’s wonderful, emotional rollercoaster of a day at - some big moments, but mostly smaller moments where L&D are unaware of me and my camcorder 📹

honestly, my heart is so so full from this day - full film in the works 🤍

35mm film scans from laura and ben’s elegant, fun filled, outrageously aesthetic weekend celebrations at earlier this summer.

some of these images have to be my favourite film work to date; the tone and grain, the candid imperfections are what makes these shots so special.

the excitement you feel on christmas morning… that’s the feeling you get when the email arrives in the inbox, “your scans are ready” 🎞️

love to laura and ben, for being incredible people, bringing the best energy & showing us all how to party in style!

“i forgot to practice my soft smile!” said millie…

i’m so so glad you didn’t practice millie, because these are EVERYTHING 🤍 p.s. todd, you scrub up real sharp too x

less worrying about soft smiles & perfection at weddings; more real moments like these, pls.

the in-between moments, captured in a way that you feel as if you could reach out and touch them. for every wedding i have the pleasure of being a part of, this is my only aim. nothing flash, nothing forced, just real life happening in real time.

Poppy & Tiernan captured on digital & film ✨ a stunning destination wedding at in the rolling hills of the French countryside, between Bordeaux and Tolouse 🇫🇷

An intimate outdoor ceremony, a French menu outdoor wedding breakfast, glorious weather, a colour palette & florals to die for, surreal sunsets & one of the most manic dance-floor’s I’ve ever witnessed.

Honestly? This beautiful venue is a contender for my wedding, one day. Revisiting albums from past abroad weddings, amidst the prep & flight bookings for this summer, is getting me so excited for the beautiful couples we get to make films for, later this year, in Sorrento, Bordeaux, Lindos, Madrid, Lake Garda, Santorini, Ibiza & more ♥️

Love you guys & I’ll never stop sharing your wedding xo

Alexandra and George | The Ned, London

City centre, black-tie, a bouncing dance-floor, and all-round immaculate vibes.

A day I’ll never forget, & the content is everything I’d hoped it would be.

Ali and George booked me for their mid-October wedding, back in September of 2022. George & I had worked together many times over our years in the music industry, whilst George was managing Joel Corry, and I was his tour photographer.

On our initial catch up call, Ali & George had set the scene for what they were looking for, for the big day. Timeless & elegant, a black-tie event, with a compulsory ‘must dance’ policy. Candid photography & videography was the aim of the game, & Ali & George loved our style of authentic, non-awkward posing, style. We decided to run a little closer to the film / nostalgia edit for this one; the London setting & grand venue was calling for it.

It was a pleasure to be able to capture their special day. My personal highlights have to be:

~ The walk through The Ned & surrounding locations, for some of my favourite EVER portraits.

~ The speeches. Comical & emotional, with full engagement & participation from all the guests.

~ The dance-floor, blown away by a killer set from & the unreal band, fronted by

Ali and George, thank you for trusting us to play a part in your mega day. It’s one we’ll never forget.

Love, Baluga x

Rebecca & Brett, captured at the stunning 📸

All we can hope for, is that the bride and groom have a smile on their face all day. These pair were no exception. Embracing the walks in the tall grass, the champagne sprays, the sunset walk & the confetti tunnels. Honestly, hard to take a bad photograph of these two 🥲

More coming from this one soon, now that the season is calming a little, after a ridiculously busy and MEGA run of weddings through June - August 🖤

Our only objective on a wedding day, is to remind you to enjoy the ride, make you laugh & capture everything that you miss 🖤 no theatrics, no rigid posing for group shots, and finally, no WAY we’re leaving the dance-floor if there’s a party going down 🤠

The guest-list may be smaller, but there’s something special about an intimate wedding, with all of your friends and family in a stunning country with gorgeous weather ☀️
