Just a little
about us.
What is it that sets For You apart when it comes to wedding film companies?
It’s the easygoing, seamless experience we provide to you - both prior to, and on your wedding day itself. It’s the cinematic aesthetic and emotive visual style that’s become our signature, and it’s definitely the dashing good looks* and feel-good vibes we’ll bring along with us.
We absolutely love the privilege of being able to capture each and every wedding differently, tailored to suit your specific needs and desires - and we love bringing your stories to life in a unique and authentic way that we’re more than sure will bring a tear to your eye even after the hundredth viewing.
Marc and James co-founded For You back in 2017, and although the team has continued to grow since, our focus has always remained the same - capturing all of the most memorable and emotional moments in a relaxed, fun and authentic way to reflect on one of the biggest days of your life.
We’re here to create something timeless, special and bespoke just for you - a wedding film that we’ll make sure you and your partner will treasure for the rest of your life.

FAQ
Some of our most frequently asked questions are here - but if you still can’t find the answer you’re looking for, don’t fret! Send us a message via the button below for more info.
Where are you located?
We are currently located in metropolitan Melbourne. For any locations that require travel beyond a 25km radius from Melbourne’s CBD, additional travel fees may apply.
We don’t live in Victoria though - do you travel?
Yes, definitely! We’re more than happy to travel outside of Victoria if need be. We are available for bookings Australia-wide (as well as for international weddings upon request).
Should we meet with you before the wedding day?
We would really love to meet you both for a coffee and a chat if you’re Melbourne-based! In fact, we always recommend it - it helps to get familiar with us prior to the day, so by the time your wedding comes around you’ll be super comfortable with us already! If we can’t see you in person though, we’re more than happy to do a Skype or Zoom chat too.
How many of you are there with us on the day?
For any of our highlight film packages, you’ll have 2 videographers present for the duration of your booking. For our extended film packages, you’ll have an additional videographer or two on board for just the ceremony section.
How do we book in? Do we need to pay a deposit?
We require a 50% deposit upon booking to secure your date, with the remaining 50% balance to be settled at least 7 days prior to your wedding date.
What sort of filming style do you have? We’re a bit camera-shy.. is that okay?
Definitely! We pride ourselves on being low-key throughout your day, and letting things happen naturally by shooting in a fly-on-the-wall documentary style. It’s important that we let the events of your day flow as they need to, without staging or forcing anything. During moments like your photo session though, we’re more than happy to give you direction for the moments that need it!
How many hours should we book?
This varies from wedding to wedding depending on how your day is structured, however we always recommend an absolute minimum of 6 hours. We’ve found that 8-10 hours is the optimal booking duration to ensure all your formalities are covered adequately!
Do we need to feed you at the reception?
Yes please, we’d be super grateful for that! Our shooters are on the go for long periods of the day with minimal time for breaks (except when travelling between venues) - so a meal during the quieter moments of the reception would be incredibly appreciated.
How long will it take for our wedding film to be delivered?
Our highlight films (4-6min + 7-10min) are typically completed within 10-12 weeks of your wedding day, whilst our extended film packages will generally be ready approximately 10-12 weeks from delivery of your highlight film. If you need your film much sooner though, let us know! We have a priority edit option for those who like things done and dusted ASAP.
Can we pick our own music for our wedding film?
Of course! If you have any particular tracks that are special to you, just let us know and we’ll make sure they’re included in your final edit. However if you’re not sure what music you want, that’s okay too! We’re more than happy to select music that we feel suits you and your partner best.
