Nowdays everyone views video on the go - with sites like youtube and facebook making it possible for everyone to share videos with their friends and family at the touch of the button. We are really pleased to launch another new service to expand our ever growing list of extra services - video conversion!

Sounds a bit boring, doesn't it? It doesn't have the worlds most glamourous name but it is a service that has proven to be popular with clients in the past. If you want to add the highlights of your wedding day to youtube then we can provide you with a converted version of your film so it can be added with ease - you don't have to worry about all of the boring conversion stuff, we'll do it for you and let you have a disc with the file ready to go!

We also offer conversion for iPhones and iPod Touch's - so if you want to show off the fancy wedding or civil partnership videography we can now help you out by converting your film so that you can play it back on your incredibly swish mobile or music player!

Visit our extra services page for more information and pricing of converting your wedding or civil partnership video so that you can share it with the world! If you have any questions or comments then please get in touch. You can e-mail us at info@adamhuckle.com and we will get back to you as quickly as possible.

Not many people ask about this, but everyone seems to like to be reassured about the issue - and the issue is insurance. As we work with members of the general public on a weekly basis filming wedding and civil partnerships we have a type of insurance coverage called Public Liability Insurance. You can read more about what this actually is here.

We are covered for up to £5,000,000 which means that come your big day you have no worries what so ever. We are fully covered as is all of our equipment which we use. If you would like more information about our videography public liability insurance then please get in touch. You can e-mail us at info@adamhuckle.com with any questions you may have.

Picture Worth Sharing


I am currently editing a film which features this beautiful shot which is just too good to not share, this shot was filmed perfectly by Marcus.

New Services


I recently blogged about the launch of some new services to our wedding and civil partnership videography extras. I am really pleased to say that these extra features are now on our website and available for purchase - you can view them here. We have launched three new additional extra services, I will detail each of them below.

DVD Invitations
This is something thats rather uncommon within the wedding industry but we really feel it could take off. We will meet up with you (even if you're not a wedding or civil partnership videography client) and film you inviting your guests to your wedding. It's a casual shoot and we can do as many takes as necessary to get the perfect shot. You can tell your guests all the information they need to know in this really unique and personal way. We will then create the short film on to DVD which you can post to all of your guests. We will design you some custom artwork for the disc displaying you and your partners name, it's really quite something and is a very personal way to invite your guests. We also put the information as text on the DVD as a special feature so they can check their diaries and let you know their response quickly! This service is £200.

Thank You DVD
This service is quite similar to the DVD invitation service, whereby we film you and your partner thanking your guests for their attendance at your big day and to also thank them (if applicable) for their presents. We will come to you and film you and your partner with your personal message to all of your guests. Once again this is quite unusual and not a service offered by many but it's a really unique way to say thank you. As with the DVD invitations, we will create some artwork for the DVD disc so that your guests know its a personal little token from you to them. This service also costs £200.

Second Preview
As standard with every videography project we undertake, we will send our clients a preview of their film. This basically means that you and your partner can view the proposed final film before you show it off to your friends and family - it also gives you a chance for feedback. If there are any changes that you would like we will happily carry these out at no charge (some terms apply). We are now however offering a second preview, which means you and your partner can see a second draft of your film with your changes in place. This means you can once again see the film and give it the OK before we finalise it on to DVD. This service costs £100.

If you have any questions about any of the above services, or if you have some suggestions on what new things we should be offering, then please get in touch! You can e-mail us at info@adamhuckle.com with any questions, comments or suggestions. We would lov to hear from you. Our videographer services are based in Bristol but we film wedding DVD films all over the UK.

Blog Pictures

I was sent a question recently asking if we upload pictures from all of our weddings to this blog - we don't. We only add pictures every so often because we don't want to flood the blog with pictures (after all we're not actually wedding photographers!) and get anyone confused. We try to add some pictures from a recent wedding or civil partnership about once every month or so!

If you have any questions about your wedding videography or any of the other services we provide then please give us a shout! You can e-mail me directly at info@adamhuckle.com. We are based in Bristol but our videographer services cover the whole of the UK!

Funny Cake Topper


I found this picture online and thought it was worth sharing on the blog. When filming weddings and civil partnerships we have seen all sorts of cake toppers but nothing ever quite like this! It's from a wedding that took place in America and features the bride and groom a little worse for wear.

If you have any pictures or videos of your weddin that you think are "blog-worthy" then send them over. You can e-mail us directly at info@adamhuckle.com with any pictures, questions or comments. We are based in Bristol but cover the whole of the south west and the rest of the UK!
