About Me

Dave Dwyer

Hi Folks. So, a little about me.

I’ve been producing wedding videos since 2006. It all started when my sister got married and I decided I would video her wedding with my trusty little handi-cam and present it to her as my gift. It was a lot of fun and it actually wasn’t too bad! I really enjoyed the whole creative process and that’s when I started getting more serious about it.

Weddings make the perfect escape for me as a videographer because the day is filled with excitement, nerves and perhaps even some hesitation at times. This all means great footage, and great footage means a great edit too. With a background in corporate videos (which aren’t known for their emotional content), it’s always nice to film real people and real emotions.

I’ve always got either a still or video camera with me. I love finding new perspectives and the challenge of using my equipment to get the results that I want.

I’d have to say I’m a perfectionist, but when producing video I think that’s the only way to be. If you want your video to stand the test of time, it needs to be perfect for its time.
