I am a freelance videographer based in Birmingham. I enjoy planning, capturing and sharing in the special moments of a wedding. I would say that I shoot in multiple styles, these included documentary and artistic. I always try to be discreet when filming blending into the background and capture emotions in an unobtrusive way. For me, video goes beyond photography, it is more than just a frozen moment in time. The experience that a couple has from watching the moving images of their wedding combined with a musically overlaid soundtrack is far more emotive than the still images alone - it captures the moments in between.
Professional service, used multiple cameras and mics. Managed to produce a high quality stream despite poor WiFi at the venue. On the day they ran everything smoothly without needing input, which was a big relief to the groom!
Matt and Taylor were the most amazing people we could have asked to video our wedding. Matt went above and beyond to make sure we felt comfortable and that he got all the best shots. We asked them both if they'd be happy to do something a bit alternative with the wedding guests and they took it all in their stride, which was so fun. We're both so excited to see the outcome of the video but honestly I cannot recommend this company enough. Their value for money is next level, they're personable and know all there is to know about tech (which is so reassuring because you know they're going to get the best shots). All of our guests have asked for their details, so I think they'll be very busy the next wedding season!
Matt and Taylor - thank you so much. If we could do it all over again, we'd have you there every time :)
Very happy with the service, the quality and the professionalism they showed us for my grandads funeral. Thank you Richard and Matt really appreciate all you did. Take care
I fully reccomend Specular Visuals to anyone requiring videography services.
Richard was super professional, ahead of schedule and delivered a final product that exceeded our expectations.
Don't think twice, book them!
5 stars really isn't enough! Richard got on with everyone really well and made everyone feel at ease. Many people commented on how nice he was and the great job he was doing. Richard really went over and above and we're so happy we chose him to be part of our special day.
Very good supplier on the day; we're now very much looking forward to receiving the materials in due course; thank you very much
Richard was brilliant! So friendly and just blended in with everyone, always making sure he was there to capture certain events during the day. He worked with our photographers and they came up with ideas for photos in new locations. Nothing was too much to ask of him, so glad we hired him and cannot wait to see the finished product!
Richard was professional at all times. We received the images within hours of the event and was able to upload quickly to our Facebook page. Would use again and recommend Specular Visuals.
Specular Visuals filmed one of our rental apartments in Mullins Bay Barbados. We are extremely happy with the video.
We hired Specular Visuals to film a rental apartment in Mullins Bay Barbados. The video was finished promptly and to a high standard.
"Richard took photographs and video highlights of Trixie Mattel's meet and great on her tour 'Now With Moving Parts' at the Glee Clubs in Birmingham, Nottingham and Cardiff.
Good quality photographs were produced fast and efficiently for Slay Presents Facebook page. Would use Richard again."
We are very happy with the animated explainer video we wanted for our crowd funding campaign. Good communication and quick to make any changes we needed.
Great job at taking pictures of the new kit. Richard came and set up at the Dojo and was organised and professional. We have also hired Specular Visuals to film our 2018 ICO Kick Boxing Championship in North Solihull on the 15th of April.
