A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME.
Below is a compilation of images, set to music, which showcases my passion for documenting funerals through heartfelt funeral videography, photography and Live Funeral Streaming.
My Journey Into Funeral Videography and Photography
My name is Shaun, and my journey into videography began around 15 years ago when a friend asked me to film their wedding. From that moment, I was captivated by the experience—the raw emotion, the once-in-a-lifetime moments, and the power of storytelling through film and photography.
As my skills developed, I had the opportunity to travel across the UK and Europe, capturing not just weddings but also corporate events, NHS medical procedures, and Health & Safety training videos for major companies like Cadbury’s, Severn Trent, Bombardier, Drax Power Station, Arriva Trains and many more.
I’ve had the privilege of filming and photographing in some truly incredible locations—travelling miles through a manmade tunnel deep inside an Italian mountain to document the flow of water through a giant turbine, staying in French castles, and visiting behind the scenes and seeing places members of the public wouldn’t get chance to otherwise see.
However, live events have always been where my heart lies. I’ve always loved the challenge of capturing moments as they naturally unfold and transforming them into cinematic, meaningful films. This is what has always truly inspired me. This passion naturally led me to funeral videography and photography, where I can provide families with a way to honour, remember, and share the moments of farewell with dignity and care.
A Jamaican Funeral Changed everything
Then, about eight years ago, I was asked to film a Jamaican funeral for a family struggling to find a funeral videographer willing to take on the task. Without hesitation, I agreed—completely unaware that this moment would change the course of my career forever.
From the moment I started filming, I was moved in a way I had never experienced before. The passion, the appreciation, and the celebration of life displayed by the family at this Jamaican funeral was unlike anything I had captured or experienced before. When I delivered the final film to the family, using the same storytelling techniques I had perfected through weddings, their reaction was overwhelming. They told me they had “never seen a funeral film so beautifully crafted and that it was something they could cherish for generations to come.”
Word quickly spread. They recommended me to others in similar situations, and before I knew it, I was filming funerals regularly. Within 18 months, I had filmed nearly 100 funerals across the UK.
A Service That Became a Lifeline
Few videographers choose to specialise in funeral videography. Those that do often deliver poor-quality films, missing the opportunity to provide families with something truly special. I saw the gap in the industry, and instantly knew I could bring something different. Over the past eight years, I have filmed more than 2,500 funerals all over the UK, preserving memories for grieving families and providing a service that has now become essential.
During the pandemic, when restrictions limited in-person attendance, my work took on an even greater meaning. Families were heartbroken, unable to travel or attend funerals, and live funeral streaming became a lifeline. It allowed families and friends to come together virtually, to be present even from a distance, and to find comfort in knowing they had witnessed and honoured their loved one’s farewell.
A Commitment to Honouring Every Life
Today, my team and I continue to serve hundreds of families every year across the UK, offering high-quality funeral videography, funeral photography, and live streaming services. Each service is approached with care, professionalism, and an unwavering commitment to honouring every life we capture on film.
A million thank you’s to this amazing man!

Here are a Couple of Images from the
first Funeral I ever Filmed 8 Years Ago.
SHAUN DID AN INCREDIBLE JOB!
Shaun did an incredible job filming our family funeral. This was so important to us as we wanted to share the service with our families in Jamaica, Barbados, and the rest of the world.
From start to finish, Shaun was incredibly easy to work with. His availability during out-of-hours and late at night was a pleasant surprise. The finished video he produced exceeded our expectations. He captured all the culturally significant aspects of the funeral, ensuring nothing was missed. He worked tirelessly throughout the day, filming the family home, the church, the open coffin, the burial, and the wake. He wasn't intrusive, but worked diligently and with the greatest respect.
The crisp quality of the video and audio was beyond anything we or our family had ever seen before. We are absolutely thrilled with our choice and feel lucky to have found him. We cannot recommend him enough.

Funerals Are My Passion and Focus
Funerals are deeply moving events filled with raw emotions, heartfelt tributes, and a shared sense of love and compassion. Each one is unique, some very sad due to being sudden, while others are celebrations of a long and happy life. Capturing these moments feels incredibly meaningful to me.
Although I occasionally cover weddings and commercial projects, my true passion lies in funeral photography and Funeral videography. Working alongside incredible families during these incredibly sad times and contributing to their journey makes every effort worthwhile. This is more than a job to me; it's a privilege to honour and preserve the legacies of those who have passed.
My Values When Capturing Funerals
Funerals are deeply personal events, and it is my honour to capture them with the utmost respect and sensitivity. I believe in the importance of:
Respect: Treating every service with the dignity it deserves, understanding the significance of each moment.
Sensitivity: Being unobtrusive and considerate, ensuring that my presence does not interfere with the intimacy of the ceremony.
Empathy: Connecting with families on an emotional level, appreciating the depth of their loss, and the importance of the memories being created.
Professionalism: Delivering high-quality videography and photography services, maintaining a standard of excellence in all my work.
Discretion: Ensuring that all captured moments are handled with care, respecting the wishes and boundaries of the families I serve.
These values guide my approach to every Live Funeral Streaming and Photography job I take on, ensuring that the final product is not just a recording, but a meaningful tribute that honors the legacy of the departed.
