Your Southern Highlands Wedding Videographer

“Hello, new friend. I’m Dion, a Southern Highland Wedding Videographer. Thanks for stopping by my little corner of the interwebs. I have always felt there is something remarkable about being able to capture moments that would otherwise be lost forever.

Over the past few years, my style has evolved to follow my heart, and for you, capturing genuine moments, people, kind words, and love as it happens is something I hold dear. I believe a good story is so much more than pretty images and music—it’s about heartfelt moments, genuine emotion, and the honest connection between people.

Check out some of my Southern Highlands wedding videography below!

Why choose me as your Southern Highlands Wedding Videographer

I bring a warm and relaxed approach when capturing your wedding day and prefer my couples to just be themselves, fully living in the moment, celebrating those beautiful, messy, emotional moments playing out in front of you.

Each one of my films is crafted to capture my couple’s style and the vibe of their celebration. This is why some of my films feel elegant and cinematic while others feel emotive, upbeat and fun. Another reason why my films feel different is because I don’t film to a predetermined shot list or send your films overseas to be edited. Instead, all footage is meticulously edited in-house and as you may notice from the shear amount of  content in my films, this approach provides me with an extensive array of footage to craft your film in the editing suite.

We chose Dion for our wedding in the Blue Mts and honestly, it’s one of the best investments we made for our wedding day. Dion was so lovely, helpful and professional on the day. He was always behind the scenes capturing the magic and we were blown away with the end results!
Dion created an incredible teaser video just 1 day after our wedding and we just got the rest of the videos and were in tears as to how much we love them! We could see the love, effort and detail Dion put in and his communication through the whole process was amazing! We are forever grateful for our videos! If you are considering a wedding videographer, you will not regret choosing Dion. Absolutely incredible. ♥️ 11/10

Common Wedding Videography Questions

I totally empathies with this. A big part of what I do isn't just knowing how to use a camera, its about making you and your partner feel relaxed and knowing how to shoot so you look and feel comfortable. 

Of course your photographer and I may guide you and offer some direction when need to help make your photos and footage amazing but the main thing to remember here is that for me to make great films, I don't need you guys to be anybody but your wonderful selves.

Once you've chosen a film package,  I'll send you a contract that outlines all the details. From there you can read and return the signed contract and pay the $300 deposit. Pretty simple yeah! This will ensure your wedding date is officially locked in with the remaining balance due 14 days before the event.

Real. Organic. Honest. Cinematic.

I'd use these words to describe my style but at the end of the day these words don't mean a whole lot. Check out a few films and you'll get the idea or better yet let's organise a video chat- I'm way better at explaining things when I can use my hands.

Yep, let's catch up for a chat. Nothing serious here, we can talk about weddings, life, dog videos, music, anything really. More than anything this gives us some time to chat freely about what is important to you and I welcome ALL your questions.

I sure do! I'll be there for morning preparations all the way through to the end of formalities once the dance floor is open and in full swing. (Yep, dance floor action!) This allows me to fully cover your wedding day regardless of hours compiling a huge amount of footage and allows you to celebrate the day without needing to worry about the time. 

Absolutely, heading to the amazing locations couples have chosen for their special day is something I adore. Due to large travel distances, it can be difficult to film in one location and be somewhere else the next morning. It's best to get in touch as soon as you have your venue locked in. For Blue Mountains, Southern Highlands, South Coast and Sydney weddings there is no travel fee. For weddings outside these areas including destination weddings I will create a custom quote.

Knowing a venue is nice, but knowing my couple is infinitely more valuable. A beautiful venue is just a location like any other space in the world and a legit wedding videographer can work in any location to create stunning imagery. A destination wedding is a great example of this. Finding a videographer that you connect with should be the defining decision in my opinion.

Every film you see here is me shooting solo. I've been doing this for a while now and I'm super comfortable shooting on my own. I truly believe in quality over quantity and that for most weddings, a second shooter is overkill. But if you've got something planned that you feel might benefit from an additional shooter get in touch.
