What is your most memorable wedding?
Well of course it's my own! 22 years ago in Ubud, Bali... Su and I got married overlooking the Padi fields with only 9 friends and family, but it was perfect.... Then of course we did it in style back in England later that summer to really party with everyone! We still watch the video every year... In fact that's what gave me the bug to start being a wedding film maker.
