Funeral Videography UK – Cinematic, Respectful Storytelling
Funeral videography is the art of thoughtfully capturing a funeral or memorial service on film, creating a lasting record that honours your loved one’s life and the people who came together to remember them. At UK Funeral Video Services, we produce beautifully crafted, cinematic funeral films that sensitively tell the story of the day — from the arrival of family and friends to the final moments of farewell.
Each service is filmed in stunning 4K resolution using multiple cameras, professional audio, and creative composition to ensure every detail is captured clearly and respectfully. Every film is individually edited and coloured for optimal results, blending key moments, music, and atmosphere to create a timeless keepsake that can be watched and shared privately.
With over 2,500 funerals filmed across the UK, we’ve documented services of every kind — from traditional church funerals and cultural celebrations to natural burials and military ceremonies. Families choose us because we bring care, discretion, and storytelling experience to every funeral we film, preserving memories that will last for generations.
A Glimpse Into My Work
Below is a short film that reflects how I approach funeral videography — with care, sensitivity, and a focus on storytelling. Filmed at a Church of England funeral in the Suffolk countryside, it captures the full service and burial within the church grounds, accompanied by gentle drone footage showing the beauty of the church and its surroundings. Every moment is filmed with respect and attention to detail, ensuring the atmosphere, emotion, and setting are preserved just as they were. It’s a genuine example of how professional funeral videography can bring together artistry, discretion, and compassion to create a lasting record for families to keep and share.
Professional Funeral Videography Services
As a professional funeral videographer, this work is far more than a job to me — it’s a calling. My approach is rooted in empathy and storytelling, creating films that feel personal, beautiful, and true to the life being remembered. I don’t simply record a sequence of events; I craft a narrative that reflects the emotion, love, and significance of the day.
Every funeral is unique. Each carries its own rhythm, its own symbols, and its own story. From a gentle moment where a hand rests on a coffin, to the powerful sound of hymns echoing through a church, or the quiet beauty of a woodland farewell — my goal is to preserve not only what happened, but how it felt.
Whether it’s a traditional church service, a colourful Caribbean celebration of life, a military farewell, or an intimate family gathering in a natural setting, I approach every film with the same level of care, sensitivity, and professionalism. With over 2,500 funerals filmed across the UK, my focus has never changed — to create a respectful, heartfelt film that helps families remember, reflect, and share their loved one’s story for generations to come.
Funeral Videography Prices & Packages
At UK Funeral Video Services, the cost of high-quality cinematic funeral videography starts from £750, but varies depending on the amount of coverage, number of locations, and level of editing involved. Every family and every service is different, so we tailor our approach to suit your wishes — from simple coverage of the main service to full-day filming that includes arrivals, tributes, and the committal.
All our funeral films are recorded in beautiful 4K ultra high definition using multi-camera setups and professional audio equipment, ensuring a smooth, detailed, and cinematic result. The finished film reflects the tone and emotion of the day with clarity and respect, providing a lasting tribute that can be shared and treasured for years to come.
More comprehensive packages can include filming at multiple locations — such as the family home, church, cemetery, or wake — as well as drone footage (where permitted) and extended coverage to tell the full story of the day through a cinematic, documentary-style film.
We work closely with funeral directors to ensure the day runs seamlessly, coordinating travel, timings, and logistics while maintaining an unobtrusive and respectful presence throughout. Every video is delivered as a private, downloadable film, giving families a lasting, high-quality record that can be revisited and shared in their own time.
A Grateful Tribute to Outstanding Funeral Videography Services
“My dear friend George Richmond, the Director of Photography for the Marvel movie Deadpool, took on the responsibility of selecting a videographer for my husband's funeral. He chose you out of everyone he looked at, and I am immensely grateful for that decision.
Your work is truly remarkable - from the beautiful opening shots to the impeccable sound quality and the finer details throughout. The way you captured the vibrant blue sky was touching, especially since my husband had such an affection for blue skies. My heartfelt thanks for everything you've done.”
— Lady M ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

FAQ’s About Funeral Videography
Find answers to the most frequently asked questions about our funeral videography services — from what’s included, to how we work, and how we help families preserve the memory of their loved ones with respect and care.
Is it appropriate to video a funeral?
Yes — filming a funeral is entirely appropriate when carried out with care and respect. Many families now choose to record or live stream services so loved ones who can’t attend in person can still take part. At UK Funeral Video Services, all filming is done discreetly and with family consent, ensuring the camera never distracts from the service while preserving a dignified and meaningful record of the day.
Why hire a professional funeral videographer?
Hiring a professional funeral videographer ensures every moment is captured with care, quality, and respect. Using discreet filming techniques, 4K cameras, and professional audio, we preserve the day beautifully without intruding on the service. Our experience means nothing is missed — from the arrival of the hearse to the final farewell — creating a lasting, high-quality film that families can cherish and share for years to come.
What does a typical funeral videography package include?
A typical funeral videography package includes discreet multi-camera filming of the entire service — from the hearse’s arrival to the closing moments — using 4K cameras and professional audio for clear, respectful coverage. Each film is carefully edited and delivered as a downloadable HD copy, with a private viewing link available for 12 months. Optional extras include drone footage, tribute slideshows, and additional location coverage.
Can we request specific moments to be filmed?
Yes — absolutely. We encourage families to share any specific moments they’d like included, such as readings, musical tributes, or the coffin’s arrival. Clear communication helps us ensure every meaningful detail is captured. We’ll always honour your wishes and tailor the filming to reflect your family’s personal connection to the day.
How soon will we receive the funeral video?
You can usually expect to receive the final edited film within one to two weeks of the service. Editing involves colour correction, audio balancing, and creating a seamless, respectful record of the day. Once complete, you’ll receive a private, secure viewing link, along with a downloadable 4K copy to keep permanently.
How do you handle privacy?
Privacy and respect are at the heart of everything we do. We only film with the family’s permission and ensure all footage is handled securely. Every funeral video can be hosted either privately — with password-protected access for invited guests — or publicly, allowing families to share the link more widely with friends and loved ones. Whether kept private or made accessible, each film is managed with the same care, discretion, and professionalism that guide every part of our service.
