DOCUMENTARY STYLE WEDDING FILMS

Our lives and our memories are made up of so many moments.

Some big, some little.

Moment’s of love, joy, growth. Moment’s of intimacy, of deep emotion, and belly laughter. Authentic moments,

I have a soft spot for moments and I shoot with an artistic and documentary styled approach.

I want to capture a feeling, the essence of your love and intimacy. Finding subtle movement, beautiful natural light, flowing textures and soft touches. 

For weddings and elopements I like to blend in, using minimal gear and a quiet, relaxed approach to capture things as they unfold. I love couples who are adventurous and who’ll laugh a lot with me throughout the day. Couples who will dance in the rain with me, who will climb mountains with me.  For family shoots your home and your special places, are my favourite locations to shoot. The place you live everyday or have an emotional connection to. I like the sun dappled windowsills, the entrance hall with school shoes and rain coats, the well lived in lounges and messy beds. 

I simply love love, and I love telling stories through my work. Capturing your experiences.

So if you’re looking for something more natural, emotive and adventurous, I’d like to work with you.

Please email me if you would like more information on my film and photography packages and rates.

PORTFOLIO

 

“ Carmen's love of nature speaks loudly and clearly through her films, even when she's telling a love story - a rare find. This made Carmen a particularly good match for us. Jess and I got married at Robberg Nature Reserve, which is very close to our hearts, and we hoped that our wedding video would reflect the unbelievable setting where we got ready, held our ceremony and celebrated our union. Carmen delivered on this and then some! More than this, she was able to fuse this sense of place with a true sense of person. By this I mean that her film caught authentic moments throughout our day, whether it be a roar of a laugh as we told stories in our ceremony or a look between our loved ones during the festivities. Through her combination of skill, exquisite timing and unobtrusive style, Carmen captured the essence of a magic day for us. That magic is evident from the first second of watching our wedding video. We are so very grateful.” - Lara Thomas-Stanbridge
