Cherry Tree Wedding Films - Scottish Wedding Videographer
How we work, to achieve relaxed, natural & real wedding videography.
Moments become memories.
As Dr Seuss said, "sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory" and that just speaks to us.
Our technique in creating wedding films is to be professional observers. To watch and capture, and use our experience to anticipate where and when all the wonderful little moments will happen on a wedding day. The knowing glances, the smiles and conversations.
We're discreet, and love to just blend in, that way things just happen around us, things that you won't notice, won't see maybe, and that's the absolute beauty of what we do.
Real Wedding Films.
On the day, if need be, we'll give you some gentle guidance rather than full-on direction, we'll not be asking you to pose, to act, or to stare down the lens. Feel free to do it, we'll be ready, but we'll not ask.
We just want you to be yourselves, your wonderful natural selves.
Then we'll take all those little genuine moments, the loving smiles and glances, all the fun and excitement, and all the spoken words from your day - ceremony, speeches, toasts, readings etc - and we'll blend them all together with a cracking soundtrack to create your wedding story. No templates, no scripts, just your own genuine wedding story.
We're not just looking for clips for Instagram, we're looking for timeless footage that'll last a lifetime.
Where were you?
We've lost count of the times we've heard "we didn't even know you were there" which is a real compliment as we're there for a good 8-12 hours on your day.
Those comments are of course because we are discreet, but also because we're not strangers! We love to get to know you a little - when time & distance allows - as it helps us to create a more individual wedding story - and that too helps us just blend into the background of your wedding day.
We also hear "you were such a great help" a lot!
That's simply because we have a huge amount of experience and whether it's trying to calm an anxious moment, suggest a plan, fix a tie, bustle a dress, or just fetch & carry, we are there to help.
Wedding films with soul and humour.
Fun. It's an essential part of a wedding, and we absolutely love to show it, from the nervous excitement of the morning preparations right through to the raucous dancing at night, there's fun and humour everywhere!
Soul. This is exactly why we prefer to be discreet and capture the real you, and not ask you to be something you're not.
It's the only way to create wedding films that show the real essence of you both, of you as individuals (as the day begins) and then you as a newly married couple. It's only through a relaxed, natural & real approach that can we capture this. It's a beautiful way to work.
Legacy.
The one thing that wedding films have over any other part of your wedding, is that we have a unique opportunity to take you straight back to your wedding day, and the sights and sounds of the day. A film that can be re-lived for generations to come.
Without being too sentimental, and with our own life experience behind us, it's very true to say that the value of this investment only increases with age. It simply is well worth investing in. We really do help to turn those moments into permanent memories.
They're pretty priceless in the grand scheme of life.
