WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY AND VIDEOGRAPHY DORSET

Photo and video wedding package Dorset from one relaxed team

WHY CHOOSE ONE TEAM TO PHOTOGRAPH & FILM YOUR WEDDING?

Firstly everything is planned together from the very start. My videographer Craig and I work seamlessly together every single wedding. We already know how the other moves, communicates and captures moments without getting in the way.

The ceremony stays calm. The aisle stays clear. The kiss stays clean. No unexpected cameos, no camera dodging, no wondering where to stand.

Moments happen once and we capture them properly the first time, without turning your wedding into a film set.

That is exactly why I created a wedding photography and videography package Dorset couples can genuinely relax and enjoy.

ONE TEAM, ONE VISION, ZERO STRESS…

I built my own team and created a wedding photography and videography package Dorset couples can trust. A team who understand weddings, understand photography, and work seamlessly together from first email to dance floor, whilst bringing fun and big vibes.

The goal was simple. Create a relaxed team to offer great wedding photography and wedding videography Dorset that feels smooth from start to finish.

One team. One vision. Zero stress.

Build a team that works seamlessly together…

"humour and friendliness really puts you at ease"

“Joe was excellent. I cannot recommend him enough. His manner is great – his humour and friendliness really puts you at ease and definitely added to the vibe of our wedding day (as you do spend a lot of the day with your photographer!) His photos are brilliant. He is a preferred supplier to many venues for a good reason! Do not hesitate to book Joe. You will not regret it!” Dorset wedding photographer.

"he is so easy to get on with and made my day perfect"

“One of my best decisions about my wedding was the photographer I chose! I am over the moon with my wedding pictures!! Joe has such an artistic way, with his forward thinking and planning when the heavens opened up and we faced all the elements he still produced some amazing and different photos, he is so easy to get on with and made my day perfect, he captured some beautiful moments especially of my candlelit ceremony. Thank you so much, can’t thank you enough – next will be my baby photos!!!  xxx” Alicia Matthews, Bournemouth, Dorset.

"It honestly felt like having a friend photographing our wedding"

“Not only is Joe a great wedding photographer Dorset but he’s a great guy. It honestly felt like having a friend photographing our wedding. He was equally comfortable joking with the groomsmen as he was helping out our bridesmaid in the middle of a panic attack after her dress split! We are so happy we chose Joe and he played a huge part in delivering our perfect day. Thank you.” – Annie Westerby, London

"Everyone loved him. It was like having a friend at the wedding"

“Joe was truly amazing. He put us all at ease for the whole day. Everyone loved him. It was like having a friend at the wedding. I know that the pictures will be prefect. Thank you so much!!

"there is not one that we don’t absolutely love"

“Thank you so much Joe for your wonderful wedding photography. Looking back over the photographs, there is not one that we don’t absolutely love. The day was perfect and you captured so many amazing memories for us and our families/friends. You were so attentive and made everyone in the wedding party feel at ease all day. I would recommend Joe as a wedding photographer in a heartbeat.” – Alice & Matt Bevis, Poole Wedding Photographer Dorset

“Oh my goodness we absolutely love the wedding photos you have put up!!!! I would just like to say thank you so much for being our wedding photographer! You have been an absolute star. So professional! But not only that you made every one feel at ease, bringing smiles and personality too. Everyone commented on how lovely you are!! I will be recommending you to everyone I know. Thank you so much for being part of our special day!!” – Sarah Fisher, Bournemouth wedding photographer, Dorset.

I’m Joe Weil, a Dorset wedding photographer first and foremost. After more than ten years photographing weddings across Bournemouth, Poole and the wider Dorset countryside, I started noticing the same issue again and again.

Couples were booking photographers and videographers separately who had never worked together, never planned the day together and sometimes had very little wedding experience. They would walk down the aisle behind the bride and father, step into the rings and the kiss, and unintentionally get in the way of key moments.

To be fair, I have worked with some brilliant videographers over the years. But more and more couples were ending up with two suppliers meeting for the first time on their wedding morning, and that was becoming a problem.

So I decided to fix it.

  • Consistent style across your photos and wedding film

  • One conversation instead of juggling multiple suppliers

  • Guests feel more comfortable around one calm team

  • Seamless coverage from prep to dance floor

  • Usually better value than booking separately

  • A smoother, calmer experience from start to finish

How It Works (Simple, No Stress)

1) Let’s chat and check availability

Once I’ve confirmed I’m free on your date, we’ll have a relaxed chat, either in person or over Zoom. We’ll talk through your plans, your venue, and what you want from your day, and make sure we’re a good fit. This bit matters.

2) Secure the date

If you’re happy to go ahead, your date is secured with a small deposit. The remaining balance is due at least 14 working days before the wedding, keeping everything simple and straightforward.

3) Plan the day without overthinking it

Closer to the wedding, we’ll go through the plan for the day, including timings, group shots, and anything important to you. Nothing overcomplicated, just enough structure so everything runs smoothly.

4) Enjoy your day

On the day itself, I’ll arrive early, settle in with a few jokes, and blend in with your guests. I’ll guide you when it helps, step back when it doesn’t, and capture everything naturally as it unfolds.

5) Editing and delivery

After the wedding, I’ll carefully edit your images and deliver your full online gallery. You’ll receive around 400 to 600 photos, plus a complete black and white set, all ready to download, share, and relive. Typical turnaround time is 4 to 5 weeks for photography.

COVERAGE ACROSS DORSET (AND WHEREVER YOUR GETTING MARRIED …

I am Dorset based, so we regularly capture weddings across Bournemouth, Poole, Christchurch, Wareham, Swanage, Wimborne, Blandford, Dorchester and the many incredible venues tucked away across the countryside.

Planning something further afield? Not a problem. We cover weddings across the South Coast and throughout the UK every year.

When you book photography and videography together

Everything becomes simpler, calmer and far more seamless. We plan the day together, we know how each other works, and we capture the story without ever getting in each other’s way.

Alongside photography you can add:

Pro Studio Booth – open plan, beautifully lit and run by the same team, so it blends perfectly into the evening without disruption.

Book photography on its own, or keep everything under one roof. Either way, it is designed to feel effortless and work exactly as it should.

FAQ (Real Answers, No Fluff)

Do you do posed photos at all?

Yes — but only the helpful kind. I’ll guide you for a few standout couple photos and any group shots you want, then it’s back to natural moments and enjoying your day.

We’re awkward in front of the camera… will that be a problem?

Not at all. Honestly, most couples say this. My job is to keep it relaxed, give you something easy to do, and make it feel like a breather rather than a performance.

How long until we get the photos back?

Turnaround depends on the season, but I’ll always give you a clear timeframe when you book — and you’ll get your gallery the moment it’s ready.

Can we meet before booking?

Absolutely. If you’d like a quick call or a coffee to talk through your plans and see full galleries, I’m happy to do that.

Do you travel outside Dorset?

Yes — Dorset is home base, but I regularly shoot across the South West and UK.
