Creative Films director, Craig Walsh

A Calm, Story-Led Approach Your wedding day isn’t a production. It’s a story unfolding in real time.
My approach is simple: stay unobtrusive, stay present, and capture moments as they naturally happen. No staging. No interruption. No pressure to perform for the camera.As a former TVNZ news camera operator and editor, I learned how to anticipate moments, work calmly under pressure, and capture emotion honestly — without staging, noise, or disruption. I bring that same discipline and instinct to every wedding I film.
Weddings are not productions. They are stories unfolding in real time, full of laughter, quiet glances, and moments no one repeats. My role is to be there without getting in the way, to see the things only a trained eye notices, and to shape them into films that you will watch again and again.

How We Work on the Day

Weddings move quickly, and the most meaningful moments are often the quiet, unplanned ones.
With years of broadcast and live-event filming experience, I work calmly and instinctively, anticipating moments rather than chasing them. This allows your day to flow naturally while ensuring nothing important is missed.
I blend in, work seamlessly alongside your photographer, and let your wedding unfold exactly as it should.

What Couples Tell Us

Couples often say the same things after watching their film:
They felt relaxed.They barely noticed the camera.They saw moments they didn’t even realise were happening.
That’s always the goal.
A wedding film should feel immersive and emotional, bringing back the voices, laughter, atmosphere, and connection of the day, years later.

Why Experience Matters

On a wedding day, there are no second takes.
Experience isn’t about how long someone has been filming. It’s about knowing when to move, when to wait, and when to let a moment breathe.
That experience shapes every decision we make, from how we film on the day to how your story is crafted in the edit.
Let’s Tell Your Story
If you value calm professionalism, natural storytelling, and a film that reflects how your day truly felt, we’d love to hear from you.

From Filming to Final Film
Storytelling doesn’t stop when the day ends.
Each film is carefully shaped in post-production with pacing, sound, and emotion in mind. Clean audio, thoughtful editing, and a strong narrative ensure your film feels timeless rather than trendy.
The aim is simple: a film you’ll want to return to, share, and one day pass on.
Personable
There are no silly questions. Talk to me about anything! I've had the pleasure of attending hundreds of weddings, and can share some great stories.
However, on the day, please ignore me. I won't take it personally - and it will make for a better video.
