Couple Testimonials

WOW I’m absolutely blown away, it’s incredible. We all watched it last night and it was amazing to revisit the memories AND see things I didn’t/dont remember from the day.

It’s all amazing and I am so so thrilled with it. There were definitely tears.

If I could give more stars I would. Sam is absolutely brilliant, so unobtrusive (people even said I didn’t realise you had a videographer). The end result is utter perfection and I am so happy I decided to go for it. Sam thank you for your patience, guidance and support you made the whole thing fun and enjoyable. If you’re thinking about a video speak to Sam, you won’t regret it!

We LOVE the pictures and videos! I honestly can’t begin to find the words to express how beautifully you have captured the day, our personalities and vision.

This is genuinely the best money we have ever spent and I am so excited to continue looking back and hopefully working with you again one day.

“Picking Sam as our wedding videographer was one of the easiest and best decisions we made in wedding planning. Sam’s work is gorgeous, we’re completely in love with our video and as a vendor, Sam was a great communicator, personable and friendly, and all round everything we needed to put our minds at ease! I cannot recommend him highly enough.”

“Over the moon with our wedding photos and videos, Sam is amazing!

From the start, seeing that Sam offered photos and videos in one package was great. His pricing for this was very reasonable and as soon as we began chatting with him, we knew he was the perfect fit for us.

He made us feel really comfortable straight away (as taking photos can feel a bit awkward) and he was very thorough in getting to know us and what we wanted from our big day. He was very efficient with communication and answered every query we had along the way.

On the day itself, Sam and his assistant were such a calming presence. They chatting with us in the morning whilst we got ready and casually took shots, but just got on with getting all the footage he needed without having to bother us. Throughout the day we barely noticed them, and when we went out to take some couples photos, it was so efficient and fun.

We could not be happier with the videos. Getting cuts that are short enough to share on social media was great, but also to sit down and watch all the ceremony and speeches through again is so special. the photos are also incredible and we will treasure those forever.”

“We had the absolute pleasure of having Sam as both our wedding photographer and videographer – and we couldn’t be happier with the results. The photos are stunning, capturing every moment with a perfect blend of natural candid shots and beautifully composed portraits.

The video, too, was exceptional. Sam managed to capture the true essence of the day – the emotions, the energy, the laughter – all wrapped up in a film we’ll treasure forever. It’s cinematic yet personal, and genuinely moved us when we first watched it.

Sam was a dream to work with from start to finish – calm, professional, and completely unobtrusive throughout. He made us and our guests feel totally at ease, and it really shows in the final results.

If you’re looking for someone who delivers both amazing photography and video, while making the whole experience enjoyable and stress-free, Sam is your guy. We honestly couldn’t recommend him highly enough – 200% recommended.

Thank you, Sam, for capturing our day so perfectly.”

We truly loved having Sam capture our wedding day.

Not only did he create such a special video of our day, but his calm and kind presence made it feel like he was one of our guests and a friend we’d known for years. He slotted into our day perfectly.

Sam was incredibly professional and helpful throughout the booking and lead up to our wedding. Offering multiple calls and checking in with us.

Sam is kind, warm, funny and an extremely talented videographer. He made us feel so at ease and captured all of the special moments of our day without being invasive.

When we received our wedding video we were speechless. It is beyond what we could have hoped for. Sam captured the day beautifully and the video has been created and edited to such a high standard!

We could not recommend Sam more highly, not only for the standard of service he offers but also because he’s a joy to have around on your wedding day!

Sam was amazing from start to finish. He is so lovely and genuine and made us feel at ease straight away. What he captured and put together from our special day is something we will cherish forever. The quality and finish of his videos is second to none. We are so glad and happy we chose Sam to be apart of our big day. We would highly recommend Sam to anyone. He’s the best!

We had our wedding day June 18th 2024 and had the absolute pleasure of getting to know Sam.

I contacted Sam a year before our wedding and chose a package that included an engagement video as well as a 2nd videographer . We met at a beautiful park and spent about 3 hours getting to know Sam and getting to know his art style. We instantly felt comfortable with Sam as an LGBTQ couple and knew we were in great hands. During our engagement shoot we talked everything from wedding to kids to each family as well as all the trips and tricks we’d need to get a beautiful video back . Feeling comfortable around your videographer is absolutely key and it truly just felt like a friend we had known forever.

The day of the wedding Sam got to the venue before us and got a lot of beautiful footage before we even arrived!! We had one videographer for each bridal side and had them there from the start until very late in the evening.

We had a separate photographer who was not apart of Sam’s business and they worked amazing together. It was like they had known each other for years and it really helped my wife and I enjoy the day more.

We got back the BEST footage and it feels like we are able to relive the day. I loved seeing all the things I didn’t originally get to see during the wedding. We got back PLENTY of footage from Sam on a beautiful drive that we have kept in a memory box.

Sam was also thoughtful enough to give me a light when i accidentally did not bring a light to do my make up!! Life saver.

If I had to redo my wedding and I would 100% book again with Sam. Our wedding day was so enjoyable thanks to Sam, his jokes and his personality. I will find an excuse to book with him again!!

Sam was our videographer for our wedding this July, but we met him previously at our engagement shoot late last year. From the moment we met Sam we felt comfortable and at ease, he clearly is knowledgable on all things film and posing and that helped for 2 people who didn’t feel too confident in front of a camera! By the end of the session we felt like friends and had chatted about our families and lives as if we’d known each other for years, this only put us in good stead for the wedding day!

The engagement film was fantastic, and our wedding day films even better. We opted for the 2 person package and it was perfect, (on the day I forgot the extra supplier but Sam made us feel so comfortable about it – luckily the venue had already sorted it, but it shows he genuinely wanted us to relax and enjoy our day!). Sam went to the extra effort of including some more personal moments for us both to see on a lovely personalised memory stick, and we are beyond happy we trusted him with our films. He also kindly checked in afterwards in case there was anything more we would like to see or any tweaks to make – thoughtful from start to finish.

We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sam for a wedding film, so if you’re hesitating – don’t, just pop him an email and you’ll see exactly why it’s a great decision.

I highly recommend Sam. Our wedding video was amazing. He took time getting to know us and what was important to us. He captured everything!!! All our dearest friends and family made an appearance.

When things started to go wrong, such as us running late to church Sam remained calm and professional. In fact he was so focused on us having the best time it felt like he was family.

Thank you Sam.

Omg! Stop looking for a videographer now Sam Baly is the best ever!!!

So talented and truly lovely person.

My wedding video was done to perfection everything I wanted and more. It was so beautiful. You have to have Sam for a videographer he really is the BEST!

Thanks Sam you are truly amazing.

Thank you, we absolutely love it – have watched it about 15 times and cried each time haha. Thank you for capturing us, we feel it really matches our personality.

We hope you like it too & we did you proud! We can’t wait for our wedding video now! Hurry up 2024!

You are quite literally the best. Thank you again,

Grace and Lucas x

We’re not sure where to begin with explaining how awesome Sam was on our wedding day. He’s a lovely guy and professional which is exactly what you need in a videographer. His communication was great from the moment we contacted him and remained the same throughout the entire process.

We had two videographers which was perfect as we managed to get footage of the bride and groom prep. We received a highlights video which blows our minds every time we watch it. (About 10 times already). The music really suits the style and vibe of our wedding and it’s clear Sam really thought about this.

We will cherish this video forever and really can’t thank him enough. If you’re looking for a videographer then look no further.

Thanks again Sam!

Thank you Sam!! From our first meeting where Sam took the time to get to know us and what we wanted from a wedding film, to final delivery of our film, Sam was professional and put us at ease.

It is clear to see the time and care spent on the edit, and the result is a video that perfectly captures us and our wedding day.

Our last minute decision to get a videographer was definitely the 2nd best decision we made wedding planning, and booking Sam the best!

Working with Sam was an incredible experience from beginning to end.

He really took the time to get to know us beforehand – we had video calls, met up in person and he even produced us a surprise engagement video!

On the day he brought such a positive energy and made us and our guests feel instantly comfortable.

With the video itself, Sam went above and beyond and exceeded all expectations – it captured all the magic of the day and was shot so beautifully.

I would recommend Sam to anyone for any event (or any video at all) – he really makes everything feel like a movie and I’m so glad he was part of our wedding experience!

We were a bit late to the party with booking a wedding videographer, and when we came across Sam, we knew we had to book him.

He perfectly captured our wedding, from all the little details, to all the big moments and tears. I absolutely love it, and cry every time I watch it, and I must have watched it about 5 times in a row already!

From the bottom of our hearts me and Nick will never be able to thank you enough, for doing our wedding last minute, and anyone who is thinking of booking him, just do it now. We promise you will not regret it.

Thanks again so much Sam, we will forever cherish our video. Carey & Nick Percival-Broome

We have the most beautiful wedding on film forever thanks to Sam and his incredible talent!

Very professional, accommodating and there was excellent communication from the start (which helped as we planned the wedding from overseas).

The social media trailer is also perfect. He incorporated our personalities and the music was simply beautiful.

So many guests have said it’s the best wedding video they’ve ever seen! Highly recommend.

We couldn’t be happier with our wedding video that was put together by Sam Baly.

From start to finish Sam made the process so easy and relaxed, from the initial meeting over zoom to the big day its self.

Sam was very responsive to any questions or ideas we had. We left it down to him to compose the video after seeing some of his other work and speaking with him we were confident he would make it look amazing and that he did and more.

We have had so many compliments off of family and friends as to how good the video is, people saying it’s like a movie trailer! It captures our day in such a special way, from beginning to end fitting perfectly with the background music and the snippets of the vows and the speeches that were put in.

Thank you to Sam and his assistant for their hard work. We very much enjoyed having you guys there to capture it all.

We chose Sam Baly films for our November wedding day and couldn’t be happier!

Sam managed to beautifully capture all the moments of the day, understood and featured the key personalities (family, bridesmaids, groomsmen etc) and brought it all together in a stunning edit which we absolutely love.

Sam’s music choice in the background was perfect and complimented the day and speech givers who can also be heard in parts which is incredible. After our initial video call with Sam to confirm the booking, we immediately felt comfortable and liked him. He is calm, friendly and thoughtful, which was a godsend on the wedding day, and made being around the cameras fun rather than daunting (as I’m someone who doesn’t love being in the spotlight).

Would absolutely recommend Sam Baly for any future weddings and/or events. We would also like to say a massive thank you to Sam as he has given us something that we will cherish for the rest of our lives!

Okay – you are without doubt the best videographer I have ever had the pleasure of working with… hands down – not in 10 years have I ever enjoyed someone’s wedding video so much…

I will now recommend you to anyone who wants videography too.

Honestly, you have a real tangible talent.

If you’re looking for an outstanding wedding videographer, look no further.

Sam was excellent at communicating, friendly and professional from the very first email, to delivery of the film. He understood our brief completely and captured our special day better than we’d ever even imagined.

We can’t thank him enough for capturing every emotion in such an incredible way.

Words cannot do justice to how impressed we are with the quality of work and the professionalism of Sam and his team.

Absolutely cannot recommend them enough. You absolutely blew us away Sam, thank you!!

Sam is absolutely fantastic.

The whole pre-planning stage was very thorough and every last detail in terms of priorities of the day was noted to ensure nothing was missed.

On the day Sam was great, directing but not making things feel too staged and during the the big moments he was in the background just capturing content.

The final video is absolutely INCREDIBLE. All of my family have said that it feels like a Hollywood film.

If you’re looking for a videographer who will capture the story of your wedding and brings the happy tears – Sam is your man. We couldn’t have used a better videographer, thank you so much Sam!

My now husband and I traveled from the US to get married in the Cotswolds UK. I started looking for a videographer the start of new year 2023 because I just wasn’t sure how hard it was going to be being we are not from that area/country. I searched videographer in/near Cotswold and the search began. I looked at a couple profiles but just didn’t get the “this is it” feeling with the first couple.

I then gave up on my search and tried again and changed the area location to expand my search and found Sam. His video screamed out something so different, it made me feel like I was standing there at these weddings, to the music/clips everything he captured is what I was looking for. Idk how else to explain it but when you know you know!!

Right from the start of me filling out my inquiry he responded right away. I explained our plans of having a small intimate wedding and Sam provided the different packages for that and answered all my questions. We scheduled a zoom meeting talked more again about my vision and I was sold.

Sam was so professional through the whole process, helped us so much. Worked amazingly with our photographer, just did a fantastic job with directing it. I could seriously go on and on about how wonderful Sam is. The video Sam made for us made me cry, he captured everything and did a beautiful job. There is no one better than Sam, Sam is the man and will give you his all, to give you the most beautiful most memorial video and experience ever!

Sam was our videographer for our wedding in October, and honestly it was the best decision we made.

Sam was absolutely fantastic, he was fun, professional and calming, gave the perfect amount of direction to get the shots he needed, but also getting beautiful candid shots of our day too.

As a person, Sam is so lovely and was it was an absolute pleasure to have him as part of our day.

We received our video very quickly, it was delivered about 6 weeks after our wedding day. We also added on a separate edit of our speeches after the wedding which was delivered at the same time.

The videos are incredible, we couldn’t have asked for anything better and watching them takes us right back, Sam really captured how magical our day was.

The memories of the day really will last a lifetime and we cannot thank Sam enough for his incredible work.

Thank you again Sam, from Liv & Matt x
