"You have captured the real essence of our Wedding Day. Thank you Nick. We had the most amazing day filled with love, laughter and glorious sunshine. To look back on the Wedding DVD was like re-living all those wonderful moments all over again. I have laughed and cried throughout the whole DVD and I am especially grateful of how well you captured our daughter singing during the church ceremony, not to mention when we danced down the aisle. It was just magical to see it all over again.
Thank you for mingling with our family and friends throughout the day. You were both professional and friendly throughout. I have already recommended you to a friend..."

ZAKIR NOORALI - VIDEOGRAPHER

Zak studied at St Mary's University College in Twickenham. Since graduating in 2005, Zak has worked extensively for Three Rivers District Council at Watersmeet Theatre. During this time he worked on the Youth Film Project, for which he was head cameraman, as well as assisting with the lighting and sound.

Zak also works as a freelance cameraman for D.B. Media Ltd. which creates programming for Asian television channels, and most recently for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's live broadcasts during this year's Royal Wedding.

"We couldn't wait to e-mail you to tell you how great Zak was! Please pass on our sincere thanks to him! He was with us from 12 noon to 12am and was so professional throughout the day and night.... His arm must have been hurting so much because he seemed to always be there in the background with the camera. There were a lot of friends at our wedding who are not married yet so we will be sure to recommend your company"

PAUL EGAN - WEB DESIGNER - VIDEOGRAPHER

Paul has been in and around the media industry for more than ten years. He's a qualified PHP developer but started off as a professional actor, training at the Central School of Speech and Drama. Sadly he didn't graduate and left half way through his second year after failing to be a Madagascar Jumping Giant Rat!! Luckily for everyone he worked professionally for 7 years before concentrating on his web design company PJE Designs.

As well as web design and acting Paul has also done a lot behind the camera. He has been involved with Stages for around 3 years, helping filming where he can and has also worked for other companies as 1st assistant director on multiple music videos and short films.

GEORGE ARMSTRONG - VIDEOGRAPHER

If he looks familiar, you're showing your age. George Armstrong starred as Alan Humphries on BBC's "Grange Hill" for five years in the late 70's and 80's before joining Todd Carty for another three years on "Tucker's Luck". Given he started acting on television in 1977 George certainly knows his way around a camera. Since moving to the other side of the camera George has produced and shot too many corporate videos to mention, as well as award winning documentaries and commercials. If George ends up filming your wedding you can be confident that he knows what way the camera points!
