Hi, I’m Darren
I’m a wedding filmmaker with over a decade of experience behind the camera, and a lifelong love for stories that feel real rather than rehearsed. Based in Northamptonshire, I travel across the UK and beyond, capturing weddings for couples who want more than a recap. They want something that moves them.
I started out in photography, which gave me an early obsession with light, composition, and the moments that slip past unnoticed. But film is where everything truly comes alive. Sound, movement, pacing, and emotion combine to tell a deeper story. The raised eyebrows before vows. The whispered jokes during dinner. The hugs that happen long after midnight. Not just how the day looked, but how it felt to be there.
On a wedding day, I’m calm, observant, and quietly present. I blend into the background when that is what the moment needs, and step in gently when a little guidance helps things flow. During couple time, I offer relaxed directionthat brings out something cinematic without ever feeling staged. I stay late, I never clock watch, and I genuinely love it when the dancefloor comes alive.
What matters most to me is that couples feel comfortable. Comfortable enough to be themselves. Comfortable enough to forget the camera is there. That trust is what allows the real moments to unfold, and it is those moments that make a film worth returning to years later.
Outside of weddings, I’m a proud dog and human parent, a lover of thrillers in both book and film form, sunsets, sweet snacks, and muddy countryside walks with my kids. I’m also a bit of a tech geek with a soft spot for beautifully simple things, which probably explains why I care so deeply about making films that feel both timeless and emotionally honest.
If you’re planning a wedding full of love, laughter, and a little chaos, and you want a film that truly feels like you, I’d love to hear from you.
