Welcome to John Mark Films — home of elegant, cinematic London wedding videography. I’m John Mark, a multi-award-winning wedding videographer with over a decade of experience capturing real love stories in some of London’s most iconic venues.
My approach is rooted in authenticity — blending natural documentary-style storytelling with the artistry of fine film-making. From grand celebrations at The Ned and Kew Gardens, to intimate elopements in Notting Hill or Richmond Park, I craft wedding films that feel timeless, emotional, and utterly personal.
London offers a cinematic backdrop unlike any other — a city where history meets modern romance. Whether you’re exchanging vows under the chandeliers of The Dorchester, celebrating beneath the glass roof of Banking Hall, or sharing quiet vows in Hampstead Heath, I ensure every moment is captured beautifully.
My London wedding videography style focuses on atmosphere and feeling. The way your partner looks at you during the ceremony. The laughter shared between friends. The city skyline twinkling as you dance. I use the capital’s architecture, light, and energy to enhance your story — never distract from it.
My philosophy is simple — real people, real moments.
I believe the most powerful wedding films are the ones that don’t feel staged. My presence on your day is unobtrusive; I quietly document the laughter, the tears, and all the spontaneous in-between moments that make your celebration uniquely yours.
Every London wedding has its rhythm — from the morning preparations in Mayfair, to a golden-hour portrait session in St. James’s Park, to a sparkler exit under the city lights. I weave these moments together to create a narrative that feels cinematic yet deeply personal.

I offer both wedding videography and hybrid photo-video coverage, providing couples with seamless storytelling across motion and still imagery.
When you choose John Mark Films, you’re not just hiring a videographer — you’re gaining a creative partner who understands how to balance cinematic composition with candid emotion. My hybrid approach ensures your day is captured from every perspective, with consistency and elegance throughout.
Packages are tailored to suit London weddings of all scales, from luxury venues like Hedsor House and One Marylebone, to smaller, boutique celebrations across Chelsea, Shoreditch, and Greenwich.
With over 10 years in the wedding industry, I’ve filmed hundreds of celebrations — from high-profile celebrity weddings to quiet, heartfelt elopements.
As a Panasonic Lumix Global Ambassador, I use industry-leading technology to achieve flawless quality and colour. My work has been recognised at the UK National Wedding Awards, winning Best Wedding Videographer (South West) and multiple national titles for excellence in storytelling.
But beyond awards, what truly defines my work are the couples I film — people who trust me to preserve the most meaningful day of their lives through cinematic storytelling.
John Mark Films has been featured by Hello! Magazine and Junebug Weddings, who described my London wedding videography as “authentic, artistic, and individually tailored for every couple.”
Many of my London clients also choose to celebrate abroad — and I’m always honoured to follow their story wherever it leads. From Lake Como to Santorini, Paris to the Amalfi Coast, I travel worldwide to create wedding films that echo the same refined storytelling I’m known for in London.
Whether your celebrations unfold in the heart of the city or on a sun-soaked terrace overlooking the Mediterranean, my mission is always the same: to capture honest moments and timeless emotion.
Having filmed across countless venues, I’ve been privileged to capture weddings in many of the city’s finest locations, including:
Timeless elegance in the heart of the City
Surrounded by nature and light
Sophisticated and architectural
Classic London luxury
Grandeur just outside the capita
Iconic glamour in central London
Each venue has its own character — and I adapt my style to reflect its tone, light, and emotion. You can explore these venues on Visit London for inspiration when planning your own wedding.
While my reputation is built on cinematic London wedding videography, photography has always been an essential part of my storytelling. I began my creative journey behind the stills camera — and that experience continues to shape every frame I capture today.
My approach to London wedding photography mirrors the tone of my films: relaxed, elegant, and timeless. I focus on emotion rather than poses — capturing natural smiles, fleeting glances, and spontaneous laughter as the day unfolds. Whether it’s morning preparations in a Chelsea townhouse, a confetti moment on the steps of St Paul’s Cathedral, or a champagne toast under the lights of The Shard, every photograph contributes to the visual story of your wedding day.
For couples seeking both videography and photography in London, I offer hybrid packages that deliver the perfect blend of cinematic motion and editorial stills. Working with my small creative team, we move seamlessly together — ensuring consistency in colour, composition, and mood across your entire gallery and film.
Your photographs and video should complement each other — a complete visual legacy of your London celebration that will be cherished for generations. Explore more inspiration at The National Portrait Gallery or The British Journal of Photography to see how powerful still imagery can be in storytelling.
I’ve spent the last decade behind the camera, capturing the stories that bring people together. What began as a passion for creativity has evolved into a full-time craft that allows me to connect deeply with couples and document their milestones.
My home life is simple — long walks with my family on the coast, moments of calm that contrast the excitement of the wedding world. Those quiet moments inspire the way I work — patient, observant, and deeply invested in every story I tell.
Awards are humbling, but the most meaningful recognition comes from my clients — couples who value the emotion, detail, and timelessness of their wedding film.
Let’s create a London wedding film that feels like you — full of love, laughter, and life.
Every wedding is personal — and so is every film.
If you’re planning a London wedding and searching for a videographer who can blend artistry with authenticity, I would love to hear from you. Whether your celebration is grand or intimate, my aim is to make your film feel effortless, elegant, and true to you.
