CANDID WEDDING FILMMAKER

Man holding a camera by a waterfront with boats in the background.

Based in the South. Covering the UK

Jordan Elwood

I’m a thirty-something year old filmmaker living in the South of the UK. My journey into professional film began almost 10 years ago, but I’ve been in love with crafting stories since forever. From writing short stories for my parents as a child, to working in documentary and TV as an adult, I’ve been lucky to work with some incredible creators over the last few years before exploring my dream role as a wedding filmmaker.

If you follow my work on any of my socials, you’ll notice that I’ll often post non-wedding related videos. Be it a foggy morning at a woodland pond, or a golden autumn sunset at a marina; I’m constantly inspired by real moments that capture a feeling in time. By collaborating with me, my couples are working with a filmmaker first, who has found joy and passion in capturing their weddings.

No scripted moments. Just honesty.

A FEW KIND WORDS

  • Ruby & Jordan

    Description goes We are beyond thrilled with our wedding video, and we couldn’t have asked for a better videographer! From the start, Jordan captured every moment perfectly—highlighting the joy, the fun, and all those little in-the-moment details that made our day so special. His ability to blend seamlessly into the celebration was incredible; we honestly didn’t even realise he was there most of the time. Jordan managed to document the candid laughter, the dancing, and the genuine happiness without ever feeling intrusive. Watching the final video felt like reliving the best moments of our wedding day all over again. If you’re looking for someone who truly understands how to capture the magic without disrupting the flow of the day, we highly recommend him!

  • Allysa & Karl

    “Not enough words to express how grateful we are to Jordan and for his film-making, but as a slight attempt:

    My husband and I both have family members abroad who weren’t able to attend the wedding, but Jordan’s films will allow them to feel like they were there, and will allow us to relive the day in the years to come, to which both experiences are priceless. From start to finish he was communicative, friendly and a genuine pleasure to work with. On the day, Jordan and Amie (our photographer) helped our nerves with their kind and patient presences.

    His package contained everything we were looking for and more! Our favourite part about working with Jordan is his openness, we wanted to do first looks and private vows before the official ceremony, and Jordan was on board with the idea straight away!

    Jordan was able to capture our special day unobtrusively which was important for us as we wanted to be able to enjoy our day naturally :) We also had an unexpected request to change the edits after he had already completed the films, and Jordan was more than helpful to meet our request and changed the films within a day!

    It was so lovely to get a physical copy with the USB, some snaps and extra bits and bobs 🥹

    Thank you for everything Jordan! 🤍”

  • Layla & Mark

    Jordan was a total dream to work with. He was friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. We felt so safe in his hands and his natural warmth helped us feel so relaxed. He was like a ninja on our wedding day, capturing moments beautifully and with ease. Throughout the process before, during and after the wedding Jordan was so considerate in our wants and needs and delivered a gorgeous wedding video that we watch all the time. I literally watch it every week and without fail it makes me so emotional because it sums up our day so well. If you’re on the fence about if you need a videographer please take this as a sign from me that you do! Nothing beats seeing your day brought to life in this way and in Jordans talented hands it will be one of the best decisions you make.

  • Ellis & Jacob

    We can’t recommend Jordan highly enough! The videos he has created for us are complete celebrations of the love and happiness we felt on the day. It truly showcases so many wonderful memories and sacred moments. It also included lots of beautiful interactions that we would have never seen otherwise, these were so special and heartwarming to watch back. Our wedding videos are such special keepsakes that we, along with our families, will treasure for life. Lots of people have commented that they didn’t even notice Jordan filming, which means that the shots he has captured are true candid moments, reactions and emotions that were shared by our loved ones throughout the day. Jordan has edited each clip together so beautifully to our chosen tracks, which must of taken many, many hours of hard work and commitment. Our wedding video was also delivered so beautifully packaged which added to the whole special experience of viewing it for the first time. We couldn’t be more grateful! Thank you so much Jordan, you are incredibly talented, professional and completely amazing and what you do!

  • Janet & James

    Thank you so much making our wedding day memories extra special! We love our video much and we can't wait share with all of our family and friends

CINEMATIC WEDDINGS WITH PROFESSIONAL COLOUR GRADES

I come from a professional colour grading background, which means all of my couple’s films receive a unique and bespoke colour grade that really helps make their films ‘pop’ and brings out extra details in a natural way.

I don’t use paid for presets and shortcuts. All of my grades are done by hand. This process adds a huge extra level of work for me, but it’s one I take immense pride and joy in, as I feel it gives all of my couples that personal touch that I believe their films deserve.

FAQs

  • Nope! Not right now, anyway. I love travelling and discovering new places, so as long as your venue is in the UK, then I won’t ask for anything additional to cover travel expenses

  • Yep! I’m an accomplished solo shooter, and I’ve been trained to handle all parts of a creative shoot by myself. I use multiple cameras to get coverage during the right times, and use a few different setups designed to fit the moments I’m capturing. I also find that shooting solo is a lot more discreet, and helps to avoid your ceremony from turning into a film set!

  • I like to send a snippet of your day within 24 hours. This is just something for you to enjoy while things are fresh as I begin to work on the highlights and main film. Highlights are usually returned within 1-3 weeks, and the main film is usually ready for you to view in 10-12 weeks

  • This is an interesting one. While I welcome direct input from my couples, I usually end up getting a pretty good feel for the kind of music they like as I get to know them, and will choose a style that I feel captures the vibe of their day. Doing it this way also gives me a lot more freedom in the edit to try and create a honest and meaningful film without being tied to a specific track request.
