Sam and the White Villa team captured our wedding in August 2019 at Lower Slaughter, Cotswolds. 

I really can’t illustrate in this review not only how good they were on the day, in that they were not intrusive and operated almost unnoticeably but the final result was absolutely breathtaking! 
The video is such an important part of the day and my wife and I are absolutely delighted with the footage captured and post-filming editing which resulted in a 15 minute film that we will treasure for the rest of. our lives.If you like the examples that are posted on the White Villa website - you will absolutely love your film.

Simply put, I cannot thank or recommend them highly enough! More...

We are so glad that we booked these guys! Sam and the team have been absolutely brilliant from the moment we booked, up until receiving our film in the post - we felt like we were in safe hands. The team were amazing on the day and I forgot we were even being filmed because they were so discreet, this was great because both my partner and I can be a bit awkward on camera! Our wedding film captured everything and more and told our story beautifully. I’m so glad that we chose to have a videographer in the end and I feel that it is something that you should make a priority when budgeting for your wedding. Being able to look back and relive the day over and over again with family and friends is so magical and we are so pleased with the result! Thank you! More...

Could not recommend Sam enough. We were lucky enough to be guests at previous weddings that used White Villa (we were the 5th wedding out of our group of friends), so already knew that the quality of the photos would be amazing. On the day itself, it was so easy, Sam got the photos we asked for and so much more. He has captured our memories to last a lifetime - thank you! More...

We cannot speak highly enough about White Villa Photography & Films and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone. They shot our wedding this year and from the first shot to the last, the photos are amazing. Sam's approach was thorough and thoughtful. He took time to meet with us in the early planning stages of our wedding, to discuss exactly what we wanted from the photos and explain the process and everything he would need from us along the way. He responded to all correspondence quickly and clearly and was always incredibly helpful. On the day Sam's work was exemplary. He was professional, discreet and a joy to have at our wedding. We were both keen that he had a good day at work, so tried to make things as simple for him as possible, making sure he had accommodation, food and travel covered. Most importantly, the photos are absolutely perfect. Sam really managed to capture the essence of our day. More...

We only decided to book a videographer a month before the wedding, so we were very lucky to find someone of Sam's calibre available. It was the best decision we made and I would strongly recommend that getting your special day recorded is a must! Sam was absolutely brilliant and we are very happy to give Sam a glowing testimonial. We found him professional, friendly, courteous and with a reassuring calmness that comes with experience and expertise. The finished video's in 4K are exceptional. Thank you Sam and we wish you all the best in the future! More...

From the start of our discussion Sam knew exactly what style to use for wedding. He travelled out to Spain to film and was a del eight to have there at the wedding as our guest. He produced a 30 minute movie that simply wowed all of our guest when they watched it. The music chosen in the edit worked wonderfully with the theme, the cutting of the film was amazing - captured the fun and live of our day. Can’t thank Sam enough for what he produced, more like a documentary film of celebrities than just little odd us getting married More...

Absolutely incredible, amazing and PERFECT!!!!!

Sam was the videographer for our best friends and my sisters wedding before capturing our wedding day on 29. 03.18. I had no doubts about Sam creating the most perfect wedding videography and I had every faith in him. He certainly did not disappoint with a trailer that moved me to tears and a full feature that allowed me to relive the best day of my life again and the best way I could imagine.

I would not hesitate recommending White Villa to anyone and everyone who is looking for the best! Sam is professional, warm and talented!

Thank you so much for capturing our day. Xxxx

My husband and I used White Villa to capture our wedding day on film. We are so pleased with the film, it is incredible and a perfect way to keep our wedding memories alive. My husband in particular, was nervous about being filmed, but it was done so discreetly, and we felt completely at ease. The company was professional through all stages of the process.

It was a pleasure doing business with you and would highly recommend your services.

Thanks again.

There was never a time when we were not going to have our wedding day filmed, it was just a case of whittling it down to the right company - and we definitely made the right choice with White Villa Films!

Everyone said to us before that the day will fly by, and it did, but White Villa Films managed to capture so much of our day and did so very discretely.

The final DVD was very personal to us and we both feel it was money very well spent.

Thank you again for all your hard work!

Best of luck for the future.

Well..... what can I say! Samuel and Katy (White Villa) have thoroughly impressed my husband and I. We decided to have a wedding dvd produced so we could relive the day for many years to come. We have not been disappointed. Samuel came to our flat and we chatted through the plan but we both had no idea how fantastic the end product would be. Katy and Samuel stayed the whole day of our celebrations....we were astounded how long and how hard they worked for. Compared to others in the business they just go the extra mile. They are very friendly and easy to get on with but also unobtrusive which is something I feel is very hard to find in this business. Many of our friends were not so fortunate with their own experiences. We absolutely love our dvd. It is literally perfect. My family have commented on how professional the outcome is and it still brings tears to my eyes (and I have watched it a fair few times). It is the best thing we bought for our wedding...by a long way. Many things you never see or use again but this is something we will treasure for the rest of our lives. I know our daughter, who has just been born, will adore watching it and this thought makes the dvd so special to us. Her great grandparents are at our wedding and this will help us to savour those lovely once-in-a-lifetime memories. I cannot thank Sam and Katy enough for all their hard work. Every minute they spent on our dvd is so appreciated. We wish them all the best and I'm sure will be asking for more photos in the future of our new family:) More...

Well where do I start, we are absolutly over the moon with our wedding DVD, we have watched it over & over again & still love every minute of it. Every special moment of the day has been captured & edited it such an amzing way which just flows throughout the whole DVD. The music used is great & very inkeeping through the DVD which they picked all themselfs but is exactly what we would have chose. The guys were great to work with too, great fun & we didnt even relaise they were on the day as they mingled in with everyone.
They had great contact with us, before, during & after our wedding. They edited & sent us a proof copy just over a week after our wedding which is amazing & the cover of our DVD is perfect!

Absolutely fantastic! Sam was our photographer at our wedding and, quite simply, We can't recommend him highly enough.

Sam was absolutely amazing throughout the whole experience. He couldn't have been nicer, more professional, or more helpful and ultimately we have stunning photographs that capture the experience of our big day with our friends and family.

Sam talked us through the whole experience and we discussed and agreed - after taking recommendations from Sam - things like the order for photos, where key photos should be taken, etc. He was excellent on the day being both friendly and hugely professional in dealing with us and our guests.

The pictures Sam captured are stunning although absolutely priceless and we can't thank them enough.

I recently had the pleasure of using White Villa Photography and Films for my wedding in Oxfordshire, England. My wife and I found them really easy to work with, and they went above and beyond to capture all the magic moments of the day.

These guys were incredibly accommodating, considering that my wife and I were working with them from New Zealand.

They started early, and stayed late, and we definitely had our share of great photographs to choose from by the end of it, in fact, we are still working through them and deciding on new favourites every day.

I'm looking forward to receiving the finished copy of our wedding video next, and having seen the draft (sent out to NZ for us to view, and review), I know that we are getting something really special.

Thanks for everything White Villa

Sam recently filmed our wedding and we've just received the film! I cannot find the words to describe how pleased we are with it! The attention to detail was phenomenal, he even filmed a birds eye view of the venue which was a lovely surprise when we watched it, we didn't realise Sam could fly!
With having both a photographer and videographer I was worried it would seem a little intrusive, but we barely noticed Sam was even there and were then shocked with the amount he'd managed to capture!
Initially we didn't budget for a videographer, but I am sooo pleased we changed our minds! After watching the film I realised Sam had managed to capture many unforgettable, once in a life time moments that we will never experience again, it's lovely to be able to sit back and watch all the highlights in our own time and take it all in as the day went so fast and now seems like a blur. Not only do we get to relive those special moments but there were quite a few parts of the wedding I had managed to miss by being caught up in the day itself, for example my Dad's face when he saw me, my parents reactions to the ceremony and our friends and family dancing, laughing and enjoying the day/evening.
Even though I didn't tell Sam who people were, he managed to figure it out himself and even caught my brother's reaction to a remark made about him in my Dad's speech! I was very impressed with this and it shows how invested he was in the day, ensuring he filmed all the things that would mean the most to us and our families.
I love the fact that forever more we can watch the moment we became husband and wife. I know weddings are expensive and a videographer can seem like an added expense but my advice to anyone getting married would be to have it filmed, and especially by Sam at White Villa as you will get a professional service with an exceptional end result. Thank you so much for the amazing video you created for us! Love Mr and Mrs Tinling x

Well, Sam! We are finding it difficult to find the words to describe our thoughts, feelings, emotions, pride ... for your efforts with our Wedding Film. You have captured such a special day for us with true style!

Amazing! Truly magnificent! Perfect! If that isn't one of your best productions ever, I'd really like to see what is!!! I know we're slightly biased because we're in it, and we know everyone in it, but honestly, if we knew nobody at all, it would still be an 'epic' piece of work that would have us glued to the screen! “Eminently watchable” as one of our friends remarked!

We now must have watched this 20-30 times and there's been more than one tear shed every time we do! The professionalism of your work, both throughout the day, and in the editing/ cutting room, is astounding. The fantastic shots you somehow managed to take and the incredible close-ups you achieved are phenomenal - and the most amazing thing, it was all without being noticed by anyone – in fact, many people didn't even know you were there! Remarkable!

The mixing, fading and the blending is breathtaking, together with your choice of music use from our playlist for the various parts of the day is so appropriate, and even humorous at times with the little filming/ musical jokes you have added. The attention to detail, the cover, the Special Features – all superb!

I really don’t see how that can possibly be improved upon. You have created a true masterpiece! An incredible piece of work worthy of an award! We cannot praise you highly enough - and that comes from two perfectionists - very well worth every single penny.

Sam, you are a master of your craft! Thank you so very, very much for all of your, and your colleagues’ efforts; in short, we are simply blown away! We cannot recommend you, and your team, highly enough.

Brilliant!
Cheers!

They were very attentive and contactable throughout the whole thing. Our wedding films and photos are amazing, we're really pleased with it. They did a brilliant job of capturing the magic of the day and includes all the main parts and does well to include everyone. We also like that the whole of the ceremony and speeches are in the special features. We thought they did really well to fit the DVD around the songs we choose and it all flows really well and the whole feel to it, you can tell a lot of effort's gone into it. Also you can really tell it's been filmed in high definition, the detail and where some bits were slowed down, like with the confetti, are absolutely brilliant. More...

White Villa Photography and Films filmed our wedding in Sept 2014 at Thornbury Castle and the end product was nothing short of outstanding. We had a very professional and courteous consultation with them in the build up to our big day, so that we could get a feel for their style and put across our ideas, which they were keen to implement into their shoot on the day, whilst also considering post production i.e. music and editing. They were always swift to answer any emails we sent them in the lead up.On the day of the wedding, we barely noticed the two cameramen as they seemed to float around everyone expertly and discreetly. It didn't take very long for them to edit and send us the final video and I can only say that we were absolutely thrilled when we saw it. They captured our day in the most magical and fluent way. It felt very natural but polished and professional and it delivered everything we could have possibly wanted. the angles, the moments, the feel; everything was just right. As an extra special touch, they were able to capture some aerial shots of the venue (via helicopter/drone) which they edited in; it was spectacular!! I would happily recommend them to anyone looking for the perfect wedding video. Scott and Emma Hazell More...

Capturing that moment! Being the ones to record something that is otherwise lost forever but can now be celebrated and remembered as it truly was.

There was a huge gap in the market for better videographers and photographers and introducing a standard and quality otherwise unseen.

Because we care about your event and we care about your memories. We want people to say good things about us, really good things and theres only one way we can make that happen :)
