It covers the wedding videography you’ve booked with me, including the coverage plan, the edits, and delivery, as set out in the accepted proposal (and any later written changes we both agree to). If anything is unclear, I’d rather you ask before the day so we can make a simple plan and I can focus on filming, not chasing decisions mid-wedding.
What I’m filming
My job is to film your day in a calm, documentary way, following the timeline and access you share with me and adapting when real weddings run late. The specific films and items you’re receiving are the deliverables listed below.
To do that well, you’ll send me your latest timeline and address list before the wedding day, and you’ll tell venues and celebrants that I’m filming. If access is delayed or restricted (common in churches and civil halls), I’ll keep filming what I can, but coverage shifts to match the time and angles I’m actually allowed.
* Edited wedding film * Short highlight cut * Ceremony edit * Speeches edit * Digital delivery link * Raw footage handover
Payment
To book the date, you pay 30% of the total price when you sign the proposal. That booking payment holds the date for you and is part of the total, not an extra.
The remaining 70% is due when I hand over the finished work. I invoice at the booking stage and again at handover. Each invoice is payable within 14 days of its date.
If a payment is late, I’ll let you know straight away and pause any new editing or delivery until the account is up to date. If the final payment is late, I won’t release download links or the raw footage handover until it’s paid.
Review and changes
I include one round of revisions. A revision round means you watch the review link and send me one combined list of notes, focused on trims and small changes like tightening a section, swapping a shot, or adjusting the pacing. It does not include rebuilding the film from scratch, changing the overall style, or making extra versions for different songs or social formats.
If you want changes beyond the included round, I’ll price it first and I’ll only do that extra work once you’ve okayed it in writing. If your timeline, locations, or coverage hours change after booking, I’ll confirm what it means for coverage and price before the wedding day.
Who owns what
Once you’ve paid in full, you own the finished edited films I deliver to you and you can share them anywhere for personal use. You can also download and keep copies for yourselves and your family.
I keep ownership of my working files, project files, templates, colour grades, and anything I use to make the edit happen behind the scenes. If you’ve chosen a raw footage handover, I’ll supply the raw files as delivered, but that handover does not include my edit project or the ability for someone else to step into my timeline and recreate the same cut without rebuilding it.
Showing the work
I may use short clips and still frames from your finished films to show my work. That usually means my website, Instagram, and private links I send to couples who are deciding who to book. I keep it respectful. I’m not interested in turning your day into an advert.
If you want privacy, I’m fine with that. Tell me in writing before the wedding day and I won’t post your film or any clips. If you’re comfortable with me sharing, but you’d prefer I avoid names, venue tags, or faces of certain guests, tell me and I’ll follow your boundaries.
If something goes wrong
I take backups seriously. I record to dual cards where possible and I run at least two audio sources for the ceremony and speeches. Even with that, some risks can’t be removed completely. If a camera, card, or audio recorder fails, I’ll use the backup coverage I have, but I can’t recreate moments that didn’t record.
I’m also not responsible for things outside my control that affect what I can capture, like officiant rules, venue restrictions, poor house sound, lighting changes, guests blocking cameras, or delays that reduce the time available. I’ll work around these calmly and keep filming what I can.
Ending the booking
If you need to cancel or move the date, tell me as soon as you can. I’ll confirm in writing what happens next, including any notice period we agree together and what fees apply for work already done (planning, calls, location notes, admin, and any edit time).
If I have to end the booking for a serious reason, I’ll tell you promptly and I’ll refund any money paid for work I have not done. If the booking ends after I’ve started planning or editing, you pay for the work completed up to that day, and I’ll hand over what’s been finished and usable at that point (for example, any completed edits or the raw files I’ve already prepared for delivery).
