WEDDING THE ROMANCE OF THE BIG DAY
A stylish film in a stunning location, shot in a cinematic, widescreen format made Drew Johnstone’s romantic masterpiece a clear winner. “What an exciting wedding this was. The couple travelled from Australia back to Scotland to have the celebration for their big day. The bride thought about all the details and how the day should flow. It was full of joy and romantic vibes,” says Johnstone of Jst Married Wedding Films. A few day later, he met back up with the couple in the Heart of Glencoe. The couple wanted to show off the cinematic, earthly tones of the Highlands to friends and family back home half a world away. The mix of locations – Cameron House, Dumbarton Church, Boturich Castle and Glencoe – made this adventure an exciting challenge for a solo videographer. “I find a big part of my films is a sense of place, with elegant moments to tell the story, thus creating a cinematic film.”
Shooting weddings is often a proven stepping stone into professional cinematography. It’s a space that demands storytelling, technical skill and creative flair – while offering a steady stream of work with real earning potential. But as any seasoned wedding filmmaker knows, success in this field requires more than just capturing beautiful footage. Running a wedding video business means managing everything from marketing and bookings to insurance and cash flow, all while navigating a seasonal workload that’s heavily concentrated in the summer months. That’s why making smart, cost-effective choices when investing in gear is absolutely vital. One of the best ways to stretch your budget is by purchasing used equipment. But reliability is everything; you can’t risk an important shoot with untested gear from an online auction. That’s where MPB steps in. As the UK’s number one used camera specialist, it offers a significant selection of cameras, camcorders, mirrorless bodies, lenses and accessories – all individually photographed, checked, graded and guaranteed. Whether you’re upgrading or selling unused gear, MPB provides a safe, transparent and trustworthy platform to do so.
Beyond the financial benefits, buying and selling through MPB reduces waste and extends the life of professional equipment. It’s a smart move for your business, and a positive step for the planet. If you’re serious about wedding filmmaking – or any kind of content creation – MPB is the smart way to kit up without compromise.
