🎥 What Even Is a Wedding Content Creator? (And Do I Need One?)

Okay, so you’ve booked your florist, your DJ, your celebrant (hopefully me 👀) — but what about someone to capture the vibe of the day? Not just the perfectly staged shots, but the messy, funny, emotional, in-between moments that make the day feel like you.

That’s where I come in — your personal behind-the-scenes bestie with a camcorder and an iPhone, capturing the day as it really felt.

📱 Wait… what’s a wedding content creator?

A wedding content creator captures all the behind-the-scenes moments of your day in real time using phones, camcorders, and pure good vibes. Unlike a traditional photographer or videographer, I’m there to:

  • Film the little things that don’t make the official cut

  • Capture stories for Instagram and TikTok as they happen

  • Get candid footage of your mates, family, and you being fully yourselves

  • Deliver content that feels like your day – raw, real, emotional, chaotic, joyful

It’s like having your best friend documenting everything — only I’m not in the group chat, I’m in the vendor outfit.

🎞 What’s the difference between this and a videographer?

Your videographer will capture the ceremony, speeches, and a cinematic highlight reel (and you absolutely should have one if that’s your vibe).

But what I give you is the fun stuff:

  • Your bridal party getting ready (yes, in robes, yes, with mimosas)

  • The moment your dog runs down the aisle

  • Your cousin ugly-crying during your vows

  • The dance floor chaos you didn’t even see happen

And I’ll have it ready within 24–48 hours, not 6 months later.

💡 What do you actually deliver?

You’ll get a custom folder full of:

  • iPhone videos (ready for Reels/TikToks)

  • Camcorder footage (for that nostalgic, lo-fi magic)

  • Behind-the-scenes pics of everything from glam to party

  • Optional Instagram story content ready to go on the day

I also offer post-wedding edits like:

  • A short “weekend recap” Reel

  • A camcorder highlight video with music

  • Stories you can repost for anniversaries, birthdays, or just because

🧠 Who’s this perfect for?

This is for couples who:

  • Want real-time, unfiltered memories

  • Love the vibe of film, phone, and old-school camcorder footage

  • Don’t want to bug their friends to film stuff (or end up with shaky videos)

  • Love a nostalgic, story-driven feel

  • Are obsessed with their wedding aesthetic and want to bottle it up

🏳️‍🌈 Do you work with queer couples?

Absolutely. I create content that reflects your love as it is — unapologetic, authentic, joy-filled, and deeply you. I’m all about queer joy, chosen family, and telling your story on your terms.

📸 Do I still need a photographer?

Yes. 100%. Your photographer captures the art. I capture the vibe.

We work with your photographer and videographer — not against them. I’m the extra set of hands and eyes getting the content they don’t have time to.


🎥 How do you shoot? What gear do you use?

I keep things light, real, and fun — just like your wedding day should be.

Here’s how I roll:

  • I shoot primarily on iPhone (yep, the quality is amazing), which lets me move easily through the day, catch candid moments quickly, and share footage with you fast.

  • For that nostalgic, retro magic, I also shoot with a handheld digital camcorder – think 90s wedding video vibes, but chic.

  • I work handheld, not with big rigs, which means I can blend in with your guests and capture real moments without anyone feeling like they’re on a film set.

This mix means you get both:

  • Sharp, clean digital content you can instantly use for socials

  • Grainy, vibey camcorder footage that feels like a time capsule

You’ll see moments from your day that even your photographer and videographer might have missed — like your besties popping champagne, your outfit swish test in the mirror, or that little laugh you gave before walking down the aisle.

🕐 When will we get the content?

Most couples get a curated selection of phone footage and BTS photos within 24–48 hours, so you can relive the day (and post the magic) while you’re still riding the high.

Camcorder footage and edited reels usually come within a week — depending on the package.

💬 Still got questions?

Let’s chat. Whether you want coverage of the whole day, just prep + party, or something sweet and simple — I can create a vibe that feels like you.
