What I Bring to Weddings at Swynford Manor

Having filmed here before , I understand how to use Swynford Manor’s unique layout and lighting to its full cinematic potential. My approach blends fine-art editorial style with real emotional storytelling — meaning I’m always seeking out not just beautiful moments, but meaningful ones too.

I often arrive early to capture the property in its natural morning stillness, before coordinating with photographers and venue staff to ensure we maximise golden hour and make the most of every creative opportunity. I work closely with couples to help them feel comfortable and confident, whether during heartfelt vow readings or high-energy dancefloor scenes. With professional audio capture, discreet lighting setups, and a calm, considered presence, I’m there to bring your wedding story to life in a way that feels timeless and personal.

Why Swynford Manor Works So Well on Film

Swynford Manor’s unique character makes it a dream location for cinematic wedding videography. The black and white aesthetic creates natural contrast that looks incredible on camera, adding a sense of drama and refinement to every shot. The natural light that pours through the ceremony room windows flatters skin tones and brings a softness to emotional moments like vows or speeches. Outside, the gardens provide lush, secluded settings for editorial-style couple portraits, especially during golden hour. Every corner of the venue offers potential — from intimate indoor lounges to wide garden views — making it the ideal canvas for a bespoke and beautiful wedding film.

“The cinematic way in which he films and edits all his wedding videos was just a perfect fit for us.

For most of the time we forgot we were even being filmed, so we were truly ourselves without any nervousness! He managed to capture every emotion and caught so many little candid moments that were just a joy to re-live.

His professionalism, care and general gentle persona leaves you at ease throughout the entire process and the finished product was truly incredible.”
