Josh & Kristina // Essex Wedding Highlights Trailer – St Martin’s Church & Talbooth Colchester, Essex
“OMG, we just watched the highlights video!! It is absolutely INCREDIBLE!!. We both cringed a bit watching us back but the highlights video was amazing and we both loved it! You are both so incredibly talented and we can’t thank you enough for this, it means so much to us.”
Ed & Lauren // Wedding Highlights Trailer – Leez Priory, Essex
“From the moment I saw Stephen and Jenny’s work, we just knew we had to have them at our wedding!
The whole process was seamless; from choosing our bespoke package, to a prep call with Stephen before the big day, we were blown away by their professionalism and service. On the day, Stephen was warm, friendly, approachable and above all blended in seamlessly with our day, putting people at ease and capturing so many special moments.
Stephen captured so much amazing content on the day and was very quick and responsive if we had any questions. The films were edited quicker than we thought and we can’t even explain how happy we were when we received them.
Stephen is so talented and he went above and beyond to make our wedding videos perfect. We were so impressed with the delivery of the films (bonus points for even providing snacks, such a thoughtful touch.) and they surpassed our expectations completely.
We haven’t stopped watching them and are so excited to share with friends and family. We can’t thank Stephen and Jenny enough for making our special day so perfect, and highly recommend for any weddings or special occasions.”

Nicky & Tasha // Wedding Highlights Trailer – Smeetham Hall Barn, Essex
“Having been previously recommended to Stephen and Jenny by our good friends, after seeing their wedding videos, for us it was the easiest decision to make on who to be our videographer at our wedding. We knew we wanted quality as this was going to be a lasting memory of our big day.
We received our video package yesterday, delivered in person by Jenny, impeccably gift wrapped with extras such as popcorn and chocolate, such nice added touches. My wife and I sat down to watch the video at dinner and relive the memories from the big day and it was honestly like watching our own movie. The films are crystal clear and the editing is incredible, not dwelling too much on certain areas but cutting in and out of scenes throughout the day/night with speeches and music dubbed over the top… especially as we requested. Worth noting too, Stephen is incredibly professional and helpful from start to finish and remembered all of our small requested details.
To say we are happy with the outcome is an understatement, the video is perfect and more than we could’ve wished for and the 5 minute trailer captures the whole day. We could not recommend enough.”
Jason & Louise // Wedding Highlights Trailer – High House Weddings, Essex
“The Videos are amazing!!! So many moments we didn’t remember! Thank you for capturing our day so brilliantly!.“
“We can’t thank Stephen enough for the magic he worked on our wedding videos!! Our original videographer tested positive for covid a few days before our wedding and Stephen kindly stepped in and worked so hard to get to know us in a short amount of time and find a second videographer with a drone to ensure we could get all the footage we had hoped for. They were both the loveliest people and an absolute pleasure to work with on the day. The end results were beyond our expectations and have provided us with such special memories of our day.
We had a long style main film and a highlights trailer and this was just perfect – we have already watched both back multiple times. So many parts of the day were captured which we would never have remembered otherwise.
If you’re in any doubt as to whether to have a videographer at your wedding, I would say don’t even hesitate – and I couldn’t recommend Shepperson Wedding Films enough!”
Nick & Posy // Wedding Highlights Trailer – Private Property, Essex
“We just wanted to say the video is absolutely incredible, it’s been so amazing to re-watch our wedding and see parts that neither of us saw, we laughed and cried it’s just perfect.
Thank you so much for capturing our special day so beautifully, it makes us just want to do it all over again.”
“We cannot thank you enough for our video and everyone who has seen it says how amazing it is. From start to finish you have been incredible, asking all the right questions to get a real idea of what we liked and didn’t like.
We knew when we meet you 6years ago when you filmed my sisters wedding that you were the person when it came to our own. After re-watching my sisters video when we first contacted you I knew we would love our video but never realised how much, thank you for giving us something to treasure forever.”
Alan & Emma // Wedding Highlights Trailer – Braxted Park, Essex
“We had the entire family over at the weekend to watch the much-anticipated final edit from you. EVERYONE was blown away. Young and Old, everyone was gripped from beginning to end, and this was purely down to the magical way you edited our amazing day. Your attention to detail, the way you have overlaid our choice of music, the professional and personalised way you presented our package, how you have managed to capture the most wonderful parts of the day in a natural and subtle way, your choice of lighting, the way you chose pan shots to bring the beauty of our venue to life… every little detail is exceptional I could watch the video a million times over and not get bored!!
Thankyou for going the extra mile. By capturing late night outside shots, you managed to create some of our favourite content from the day – away from the madness, just us two at the end of a stunning day that you have captured superbly Thankyou for the screengrabs – I honestly prefer some of these shots to those of the photographer – you captured so much that they missed!!
Choosing to have a videographer (when we were already over budget for our wedding!) was a daunting and big conversation. So many of our friends forewent this, and seemed to be content with that choice. That was until they saw what Shepperson Films were capable of. Every single one of those friends who didn’t have a videographer has watched our film and is green with envy that they missed out on capturing their day in such a special way. Even those that did have a videographer have to agree that the editing provided by Shepperson Films is by far the best they have seen.
The ability of being able to show someone a 3 minute film of your day, and immediately make them feel like they were there when they weren’t – that is priceless. Your eye for detail combined with your ability to blend into the background throughout the day itself meant we are left with a film we will cherish forever. A million thank you’s!”
Ria & Scott // Wedding Highlights Trailer – The White Hart & Essex Barn, Essex
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – We received our wedding film this week and I can’t even explain how happy we are with it, it is just so amazing I can’t stop watching it.
I can honestly say from our very first meeting with Stephen he has been fantastic from first consultation to delivering the final product, and the service that he provided had been above expectations.
We can’t thank you enough we get to relive our special day and the film is just perfect.
Amazing wedding videographer. 🤩“
Chloe & Elliott // Wedding Highlights Trailer – The Fennes, Essex
“We cannot recommend Stephen enough! The whole journey from the start with him was faultless! He is so friendly & a pleasure to share our special day with.
We can’t believe how amazing our wedding film & trailer is. It brought us and most of our family and friends to tears when watching it and re-living the love and joy we shared on that day! We loved the personalised box & the extra special touches inside when it was delivered! All the thought put into it & the sheer quality of the film makes it worth every penny!!
Anyone thinking about having a videographer, I STRONGLY recommend it, along with a photographer too! (And I strongly URGE YOU to use Shepperson Wedding Films & Neal Laver Photography – both are SUCH HIGH CLASS, you won’t regret it!!) They each capture moments that you can’t put a price tag on! You can always make more money!… You cannot re-make all those memories or even remember it all as the years pass by! Thank you again Stephen for creating us something we will treasure our whole life & look forward to watching each year on our anniversary. Love, Mr & Mrs Tooth x”
THE SHEPPERSON DIFFERENCE
Why Choose Shepperson Wedding Films?
Experienced, professional wedding videography in Essex
1. Over 12 years of wedding filmmaking experience
Established in 2013, Shepperson Wedding Films brings over 12 years of wedding filmmaking experience to your day. Stephen has filmed 275+ weddings and holds a First-Class Honours degree in Video Production, with professional video production experience extending back even further.
2. Wedding videography packages tailored to you
Every wedding is different, which is why our wedding videography packages are fully customisable. Choose the amount of filming coverage you need, the films you’d love to receive and any optional extras that suit your plans and budget. Whether you’re looking for professional coverage of just your ceremony and speeches or a more comprehensive wedding film, we can tailor a package around your day.
3. Wedding teaser films, highlights and short films
From 60–90 second teaser trailer and 5-minute highlights trailers to our new 10-minute highlights wedding film, we offer a range of ways to relive your special day. Each film is available as a standalone product, allowing you to choose exactly what suits your wedding and budget, without needing to book a longer feature film. Our 10-minute highlights film tells the story of your wedding day in a beautifully edited, cinematic format, while our teaser films are produced with a quick turnaround in mind, so you can relive and share some of your favourite moments sooner.
4. Longer, more comprehensive wedding feature films
Our full-length wedding feature films have a minimum duration of 40 minutes, offering considerably more coverage than the shorter feature films commonly offered by many wedding videographers. While some wedding films are around 20 minutes long, we believe that having more of your special day preserved is something you’ll truly appreciate in years to come. From the heartfelt moments and laughter to the atmosphere and little details, our longer films allow you to relive much more of your wedding day with your family and friends.
5. Natural, documentary-style wedding videography with a cinematic finish
Our approach to wedding filmmaking is simple: we’re there to document your wedding day, not direct it. We aim to capture as much of your day as possible, from the big, unforgettable moments to the little interactions, laughter and emotions that might otherwise go unnoticed. With a relaxed, unobtrusive where possible filming style and minimal direction, we allow your day to unfold naturally while capturing the genuine atmosphere and personalities that make it uniquely yours. The result is a beautifully edited, cinematic wedding film that tells your story as it really happened, allowing you to relive those precious memories for years to come.
6. Your wedding films delivered online and in a beautiful USB gift box
Our wedding film packages include two convenient ways to enjoy your memories. Watch, download and share your films through online streaming, and receive a branded USB stick presented in a beautiful gift box — a wonderful keepsake to treasure for years to come. For bespoke ceremony and speeches only packages, we can offer either delivery option individually or both, depending on your preferences and budget.
7. Beautifully colour-corrected and stabilised wedding footage
We take great care with every shot used in your wedding film, applying professional colour correction and image stabilisation to ensure your footage looks its very best. From maintaining natural, consistent colours throughout your film to minimising unwanted camera movement, our attention to detail helps create a smooth, polished and cinematic viewing experience. We want you to focus on the beautiful moments and emotions of your wedding day, without distractions from the filming itself.
8. High-quality wedding audio recording and professional sound enhancement
Sound is just as important as the visuals when it comes to reliving your wedding day. We use multiple professional audio recorders throughout the day, particularly during key moments such as your ceremony and speeches, to capture voices, conversations and the atmosphere as clearly and naturally as possible. During editing, we carefully clean, balance and enhance the recordings to achieve the best possible sound quality. From hearing your vows and the laughter during speeches to the applause and atmosphere of your celebrations, we aim to preserve the authentic sounds and emotions of your wedding day, helping you feel as though you’re right back in those special moments.
9. Carefully selected music to complement your wedding film
Music is an important part of bringing your wedding memories to life, helping to reflect the atmosphere, emotions and personality of your special day. Our 60–90 second teaser films and 5-minute highlights trailers feature carefully selected, licensed music suitable for online sharing. For our 10-minute highlights wedding films, we can also take your musical preferences into account, with the soundtrack tailored to how you intend to enjoy your film. We can use appropriately licensed music for online sharing or discuss your favourite commercial songs for private viewing, subject to the necessary music permissions. Whatever your preference, we aim to create a soundtrack that beautifully complements your wedding day.
10. Spread the cost of your wedding videography with three instalments
We understand that planning a wedding involves balancing lots of different expenses, which is why we make paying for your wedding videography a little easier. Your wedding videography investment is divided into three instalments, helping you spread the cost rather than paying everything upfront. This allows you to secure your wedding date with us and manage the remaining payments as part of your wedding budget.
11. Two dedicated video editors ensuring every detail matters
Every wedding film we create benefits from the combined experience, creativity and attention to detail of Stephen and Jenny. With both of us involved in the editing and review process, much of our work is carefully checked by two pairs of eyes, helping us refine each film and ensure the finished result is something we’re genuinely proud of. From selecting the most meaningful moments to perfecting the final edit, we take great care in creating a beautiful, personal wedding film that you’ll treasure for years to come.
12. Extensive experience filming at prestigious Essex wedding venues
Having filmed weddings throughout Essex since 2013, we’ve gained valuable experience at some of the county’s most beautiful wedding venues, including Hatfield Place, Down Hall, Houchins, High House Weddings, Maidens Barn and The Fennes.
From elegant country houses and exclusive-use estates to beautifully restored barns and picturesque countryside settings, each venue offers its own unique character and atmosphere. Our familiarity with these locations helps us anticipate important moments, make the most of the surroundings and capture your wedding day with confidence, creativity and a relaxed, unobtrusive approach.
