Motion Art Wedding Films

Gold Coast Wedding Videographer

You deserve to be fully present. We’ll make sure you never forget how it felt.

Imagine waking up the day after your wedding knowing that every look, every unscripted laugh, and every tear was captured without you ever feeling “on display.”

As a Gold Coast wedding videographer with 20 years of experience, I don’t just film your day; I protect your peace of mind. You get to focus on each other, while I masterfully preserve the moments you’ll want to feel again for a lifetime.

While most videographers only give you the “highlights,” your legacy deserves more. You will receive your cinematic film plus complete, real-time recordings of your ceremony and reception. Every vow, every speech, and every toast is preserved in full, so you can relive the words that started your journey whenever you need to hear them.

With the experience of 800+ weddings and 132 five-star reviews, I’ve navigated every Gold Coast venue and every possible wedding day curveball. It’s why the region’s top vendors recommend Motion Art. You can relax and enjoy your celebration, knowing your memories are in the most experienced hands in Southeast Queensland.

FAQs

Yes. Filming weddings for over 18 years, I’m well aware that each celebration is as unique as each couple.

Simply tell me your needs and vision for your wedding day and we can go from there.

Absolutely. Even though I consider each enquiry on its own merit, I typically save weekday dates for elopements and weekends for bigger events.

Yes. I love combining travel with my passion for wedding videography. Over the years, I’ve filmed weddings in the USA, Italy, Scotland, Fiji, and New Zealand — including a few high-profile celebrations along the way.

I was married in Wanaka myself, and I currently offer a special rate for couples planning a destination wedding or elopement in the Queenstown and Wanaka region of New Zealand.

If your wedding or elopement is within 90 minutes of the Gold Coast, I do not charge extra for travel. Outside of that, travel costs are dependent on where your event is taking place.

My booking process is straightforward and completely digital. Once you verbally confirm you’d like to book, I’ll send an online agreement to both you and your partner’s email addresses for digital signatures.

Once signed, a 25% initial payment secures your date.

Simple, paperless, and done.

One thing you should know is that I provide your entire ceremony, from start to finish, in a real-time video, plus a separate video of all your reception formalities.

It’s old school (but then again, so am I), and from what I’ve heard, many videographers don’t offer this anymore. My couples and their families love having these videos, and I believe they become more valuable over time.

I believe my other point of difference is my personality. Read my Google Reviews and you’ll see many couples talk about how my calming presence and witty sense of humor elevated their entire day.

My approach is all about candid, natural storytelling, capturing authentic moments without staging or direction.

During the ceremony and speeches, I use long telephoto lenses to stay discreetly in the background, minimizing any sense of intrusion.

This not only helps you relax and be fully present but also ensures family and friends can witness your vows and toasts without distraction from me.

For Gold Coast wedding videographers, peak wedding season (March to May, August to October) books up quickly. I recommend reaching out 12-18 months in advance for weekend dates during these popular months.

However, I often have availability for weekday weddings and off-peak dates with shorter notice. If your wedding is coming up soon, don’t hesitate to get in touch. I may still have your date available.
