I'm Harry and I live in sunny Bournemouth with my wife Penny.

I create my wedding videos from an office at Bourne Space, in Bournemouth Town Centre. This is where I run Plato Video, a business my Dad set up over 40 years ago. 

I grew up around my Dad's video equipment and have always been fascinated by technology and motion picture.

I filmed my first wedding for a family friend in 2004 and loved capturing the event and creating their video. After studying film production at University I continued filming weddings for family friends until I felt experienced enough to turn professional in 2012.

Not long after joining my Dad’s business I decided to create ‘Harry's Wedding Films’, which gave my work a personal identity.

What Drives Me

Reliving the past in video is my passion. I enjoy finding new ways to make this experience more natural and expressive of the moment.

A wedding video can give you a lifetime of enjoyment. I believe that hiring a videographer is easily the best investment you'll make towards your wedding day.

Considering all the planning that goes into your wedding day and the unique mixture of friends and family involved, it makes sense to have a high quality memento created.

What sets me apart:

  • I appreciate the importance of capturing decent sound as well as cinematic video. You really need high quality sound to truly recreate the atmosphere of the day.

  • I'm one of the few videographers who offer customised packages. Create your own tailored package or choose from my set options.

  • I lovingly craft all of my videos. No part of the editing process is outsourced.

  • I'm a documentary style guy, I prefer to be unobtrusive and unnoticed.

  • I can shoot weddings on Super 8 cine film!


So that's me in a nutshell! If you haven’t already, you can learn more about my wedding video services through the links below.


My Favourite App

I thought I'd share an app I use in my personal life, it's called One Second Everyday.

It's a video diary which creates one second clips from videos you make and stitches them together to produce a video covering anything from a few months to a year of your life. Basically it's a way to remember something from everyday of your life. 

If you don't think you can commit to it long term, I'd definitely recommend it for a holiday or in the lead up to your wedding day - just as a way of remembering yourselves and your journey during this time of your lives together.

It's a great way to look back on your life - a whole year in 6 minutes! It's available on Android and iPhone, check out their website for example clips here.
