John Joseph Wedding Films

What do you offer?

The best moments on film are always the unplanned ones. I film natural, warm wedding films. I want to capture all the natural cheer and joy of the day whilst being as unobtrusive as possible.

Why do you want to work with the LGBTQ+ community?

As a queer videographer who is engaged himself, I understand how daunting it can feel to find suppliers who will make us feel comfortable on one of the most important days of our lives. I want all couples of the LGBTQ+ community to have confidence in their suppliers being a safe space for them to share their story authentically. Queer love fills me with so much joy and I want to create videos for all queer couples to treasure for a lifetime.

Allyship

I'd like to think of myself as a vocal champion for LGBTQ+ voices in all work that I do. I've been on a huge journey with my own sexuality and I want to be that safe space in all work that I do for queer people to feel comfortable sharing their story. It's a very daunting world with the news we are seeing at the moment feeling quite scary at times, I believe the only way to champion this is to keep sharing queer stories, and in part with my work as a wedding videographer, I can actually share those stories.

I am constantly open to conversations on how to make my work more inclusive. I truly believe the only way to be a progressive business is to keep the dialogue line open to what makes everyone feel as heard and included as possible. Through my business I regularly share speeches from my videos that express pride, queer love, and diversity on social media, alongside actively promoting myself as one of the only active queer videographers currently in the UK.
