We Tell
Documentary wedding videography, filmed unobtrusively, edited cinematically..
THINK ALL WEDDING FILMS ARE THE SAME?
Hi, I’m James and I’m not a regular wedding videographer. My wedding films are NOT like everyone else’s. I create cinematic, documentary-style wedding films for couples across the U.K. that are truly unique to each couple.
My style of wedding videography is not endless slow motion shots of couples with overly dramatic music. My wedding films are not cookie cutter edits, where you could easily replace one couple with another and not notice. I do not chase the latest social media trends.
My wedding films capture the emotion, the laughter, the excitement, the anticipation, the party, all filmed and edited cinematically, creating a documentary-style wedding film with your unique story at their heart.
If you want a standard wedding film, you need to look elsewhere.
If you want unique, authentic, documentary-style wedding videography, crafted with passion and classic cinematic techniques, focused on your story and emotion, you’ve found your wedding filmmaker.
"From start to finish, James made the process seamless, the highest quality of work and professionalism, we couldn’t recommend using his services more."

Wedding Videographer
James Tracey
Hi,
That’s me in my office above, then there’s me, my awesome wife Laura and our girls, Jaime and Ana, on the actual Central Perk set in Hollywood and that’s me in ‘action,’ filming at real wedding.
In these three photos you’ve got everything that’s important in my world. My work, holidays and most of all, my family (and Friends, we all love Friends!)
Being a Yorkshire wedding videographer was not my childhood dream job (that was to be a train driver)….
"James was such a pleasure to have on our wedding. The films he has created for us are SO good. They tell a story of our day and his filming is so creative."
Rebecca & Joseph – Camblesforth Hall
MY PROMISE:
"I WILL MAKE A FILM THAT IS AUTHENTIC AND UNIQUE TO YOU AS A COUPLE."
" I FILM IN A DOCUMENTARY STYLE. I WANT YOU TO SPEND YOUR WEDDING DAY WITH YOUR FAMILY & FRIENDS. I'LL CAPTURE THE AUTHENTIC EMOTION AND YOUR UNIQUE STORY."
Your wedding is one of the most important days of your life. It’s one of the rare days where everyone you love is in one place all at the same time and, it will fly by in an instant. After all that excitement and planning, will you really be happy with a few video clips taken on your guest’s phone?
Imagine having a film of your grandparents’ and your parents’ weddings. You can see them at a similar age to you, excited and in love. You can hear their voices, see their emotions, and re-live their lives before you were even born.
Now imagine those moments filmed cinematically, telling their story in a way you can watch over and over.
I promise to create a unique wedding film for each couple. A film that captures your individuality and preserves all the genuine emotion, excitement, laughter, nerves, jokes, hugs, sounds, all the magic of your wedding day
My wedding videography style is rooted in cinema, using filming and editing techniques you’ve seen in Hollywood movies to ensure your story is told in a truly cinematic way. Most importantly, I film your wedding unobtrusively, in a documentary style, capturing your unique story exactly as it unfolds.

"James made us feel so at ease all day during filming. He captured the emotion of our day perfectly and we will treasure these films for the rest of our lives."
THAT ALL SOUNDS GREAT, BUT ARE YOU ANY GOOD?
I’m a Judge for The Wedding Industry Awards having been a 4 time winner regionally and nationally in The Best Wedding Videographer category.
At the 2025 British Wedding Film Festival I was the only British filmmaker nominated in the Best Use Of Cinematic Language Category.
"From our first interaction with James through to receiving our final film he was such a pleasure to work with. The film itself is better than we ever imagined."
