REVIEWS & KIND WORDS

”My 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.”

Winston - Jamaican Funeral - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

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.

I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for the exceptional videography services provided at my great grandmother's funeral. Shaun’s work captured the essence of the day with a delicate balance of emotion and professionalism.

Shaun’s attention to detail was truly remarkable. He seamlessly blended into the background, allowing the focus to remain on the heartfelt tributes and farewells. The resulting video was a beautiful tribute to my grandmother's life, capturing the love and respect felt by all in attendance.

I was particularly impressed by Shaun’s ability to capture the subtle moments of comfort and connection among family members. The video serves as a precious keepsake that will allow us to cherish these memories for years to come.

Thank you again for your compassionate and skilled services. Your work has provided immeasurable comfort during this difficult time.

Shaun,

I cannot thank you or praise you enough for filming my Mother's funeral. You kept me updated on the event from start to finish. I felt you were a close friend with the support you gave. Nothing wasn't too much for you. Excellent, professional and friendly service and will be recommending to others.

Keep up the good work. xxx

Dear Shaun, Thank you for doing the video livestream and recording of our mother’s funeral. It is brilliant. The sound and the picture is perfect and the BOXCAST technology is, as you promised, as simple as clicking the link. My mother was Australian and the livestream and recording have been watched and listened to by many of her family and friends in Australia and elsewhere around the world. It’s amazing and we are very glad we found you.

I noted that you arrived more than 3 hours early which speaks volumes for your reliability and commitment. Thank you ! Best wishes, Michael Dingwall

Dear Shaun, I cannot believe that it has taken me very nearly three months to manage to sit down to write to you.  I can assure you that whilst hugely delayed this message is no less warmly felt.

I cannot thank you enough for your work on streaming the Celebration on 13th May.  I am sorry that we didn’t actually meet but I heard from Tracy what an absolute pleasure it was to work with you.  Everything went so smoothly on the day and I could not have asked for more.  So many people who watched the stream have been extremely complimentary about it.  It was a wonderful way of those who could not be there in person to join us.  

With many thanks and Best Wishes

Alex Elderfield- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Shaun's service was spot on from start to finish: ease of setting up the job via online chat; arrival with plenty of time spare; everything set up and dealt with on the day; and a livestream that was easy to use for any level of computer literacy! It was particularly reassuring to receive a text from him several hours before the service confirming that his connectivity was working well in our rural location.

We received fantastic feedback from the friends and family who joined us remotely. "It worked perfectly and we were able to stream it in our hotel room and feel part of Chris's send off." "I really felt I was there." "Clear as a bell."

Mads Bushnell - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Huge thanks to you Shaun, as you were able to successfully stream my Fathers Celebration of Life service to friends and family, unable to join us, despite the bad lack of any signal at Greenacres in Jordan, you still managed to make it happen.

You made what was a very difficult day, so much less stressful with your calmness, care and great equipment! Thank you very much ...

We researched extensively online and spoke in depth with numerous video companies. Amongst this selection, there was one that stood out from the crowd, and that was Shaun from UK Funeral Video Services. From the outset, he engaged with our objectives and filled us with the confidence we needed to proceed with the booking. We could see the standard of his work was to an exceptionally high level and his previous bookings clearly demonstrated he was a dedicated and thoroughly professional gentleman. Leading up to the event, we were guided and reassured every step of the way.

On the day of the funeral, everything fell into place with meticulous precision. Shaun arrived well ahead of time to meet with the chief mourners and listened intently to our final briefing. Then Shaun swung into action and took command of all he needed to control, in an effortless manner, so his presence was hardly noticed. The end result is that we have nothing less than a "work of art" by which to remember dear Arthur, We will all treasure this video keepsake forevermore. Those who watched the live stream in many different countries, immediately messaged and commented that the quality was, "Amazing", "Outstanding" and "Magical".

Shaun had captured it all and far exceeded our expectations in every part of the proceedings.

Without any doubt whatsoever, we would use Shaun's services again and with no hesitation, we would highly recommend Shaun to handle any special event you may be planning. Shaun is a consummate professional, but he's also a charming and very likeable person to do business with. You won't regret it. We didn't. Thank you Shaun. You did us proud and it's something we'll never forget. Memorable, glorious and precious stunning work. We couldn't be more delighted. 100% everything we had hoped it would be. You're an absolute star. Gold standard performance.

Shane McMillan - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Just want to say a massive thank you to Shaun. The stream was very professional and high quality. The customer service provided was excellent and if I had any questions I always got a response in a quick and timely manner.

Arun Ulahannan - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Excellent service from Shaun. Catered for all our needs from start to finish. We completely forgot he was there, and all of our family online said the stream was of exceptional quality (especially given the poor mobile

data and wifi at the venue). Thank you

Gary Othen - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I would just like to say a massive thank you from all of the family for a wonderful amazing service..

very friendly guy ,communication is excellent , customer service second to none ..

Thank you Shaun

David Hills - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We booked at the last minute and Shaun couldn’t have been more helpful. On the day his colleague Andre did the filming and was so discreet I didn’t realise the cameras were there. The Vicar also commented what a lovely man he was. Have just played back the recording today and we are so happy with it and it means all those who couldn’t come due to the restrictions can feel as though they were there.

Denise Steele - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Shaun was most helpful from the moment I contacted him. He was friendly, kind and patient despite several changes in our arrangements. Nothing was too much trouble.

On the day of my Dad’s funeral, Shaun was at the church early to set up and ensure everything was just right. He was inconspicuous throughout the service and his conduct was dignified and respectful.

The livestream was seen in different parts of the world as well as Ireland and England and the vision and sound were clear and crisp.

We are very grateful to Shaun for his expertise and professionalism at this difficult time which ensured that all the family, wherever they were, could feel part of the celebration of my Dad’s life.

Thanks so much Shaun.

Sam Dobson - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We booked Shaun for my Nans funeral at beautiful Greenacres Chiltern. Sadly they didn’t offer a live streaming service due to the chapel being in the middle of the woods. Shaun was extremely helpful from the start always answered questions quickly and we were reassured booking him was the right choice.

On the day of the service I received a text to advise us that he had arrived which I thought was a lovely touch. He brought all his own equipment to be able to use his WiFi to stream the service. We received many positive comments from family and friends who were unable to join us due to covid restrictions especially those abroad. It wasn’t until we watched the service afterwards that we realised just how beautifully it had been captured.

The quality was fantastic and felt really personal. Thank you again, I would highly recommend Shaun to anyone.

Douglas Dodd - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Very polite and helpful and very unobtrusive. Unfortunate that the church’s broadband could not cope so broadcast was delayed, but Shaun put up a new link quickly so people could see it the same evening. The video was very sympathetically shot and makes a lovely souvenir of a very sad and poignant occasion.

Dan Waldman - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I'm really pleased that I came across UK Funeral Video & Photo Services while I was Googling for a company to live stream my mother's funeral last month. Shaun did a fantastic job from start to finish, explaining how everything would work, the various options available and taking time to answer the multiple questions that I had. He completely put my mind at rest meaning that it was something that I didn't need to worry about on the day.

He dealt with the funeral directors and the celebrant to ensure that everything ran smoothly and the filming was as unintrusive as possible. On the day of the funeral Shaun arrived an hour an a half early to make sure that we were happy with exactly where he would be in the church and how it was should be filmed, both in the church and at the graveside.

The streaming was absolutely fine even though there wasn't any sort of internet available in the church - it was all done via 4G. We had over 120 devices connected to the stream and a huge number of positive comments from people who were really pleased to be able to join the service, even though they were not able to be there in person. Various other people have also watched the videos retrospectively and I have been able to download copies to keep permanently.

I can't recommend Shaun's services enough and the costs are extremely reasonable for the standard of service that he provides in advance, on the day and after the event.

Charli Wheeler - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Firstly Shaun arrived early and introduced himself - he then went about taking photos so unobtrusively we weren't aware he was there . The finished album was beyond our highest Hope's- the photos were perfect.

Every aspect captured and presented in the most amazing photo album. Even being able to name the Photo album added that extra special touch. On what was one of the worst days of our lives - we have a wonderful reminder of all those who loved our special girl .

Shaun did a great job. From the start he was helpful and polite and dealt with everything promptly.

Gayle Manning - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The very best customer service!

From the moment we booked Shaun to live stream our wedding, until the time we sadly had to cancel due to yet another lockdown, he has been incredible. Initial planning, understanding what we needed and reassurance about the streaming process were all superb. He obviously knows what he is doing but asks some great questions to really find out what matters to you. He has been so patient and understanding with date changes and when we did finally have to cancel, he refunded us in full immediately. Very sad we are not going to get to use his services yet but I highly recommend Shaun and Beautiful Life for wedding video options, whether film or streaming.

Debbie Knoll - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I couldn’t attend my mom’s funeral due to Covid restrictions. My sister put me in touch with Shaun. He was the ultimate professional from start to finish. He always responded promptly to my many questions. Patrick filmed my mom’s funeral. I still don’t understand how he was able to capture everything with just two cameras. Shaun’s editing was simply magnificent. I’m so grateful that he was able to make such a painful time more bearable. My mom’s funeral is something I will treasure. Thanks to Shaun’s care, compassion, and beautiful editing!

Janet Rathburn - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

He arrived in plenty of time and everything was set up efficiently and without any fuss.

The actual vide was of great quality and was watched in Malaysia, Canada and Australia! We have had lovely feedback from those who've watched it . It really helped us to share dad's funeral with people who couldn't be there. I thoroughly recommend this service.

Rohanna Miller - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Highly recommend Shaun and his services!!

I was initially really anxious about being in London and Shaun not but can honestly say other reviews as well as Shaun; filled me with confidence; even down to his website . He turned up on time and was very professional from start to finish. No issues what so ever!

We went with the videography service for my nans funeral and Shauns attention to detail and finishing/editing was perfect and couldnt of wished for a better video, with long lasting memories. Given the circumstances surrounding COVID and the restrictions, Shaun helped to make a difficult more easier and blended in.

I looked around before booking and Shaun is the only video and photography service that I found that specialised in Funerals. Be mindful that all not video companies specialise in funerals which is something you cannot record or present again.

Shaun was wonderful and would not hesitate in recommending his service. Faultness and worth every penny, best money spent !!!!

John Chambers - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Our dear mums service was held last week, due to the covid restrictions many of our mums family, dear friends and parishioners were sadly unable to attend . I got in touch with Shaun regarding live streaming the service and from start to Finnish this was a very professional service, nothing was to much trouble for Shaun . As a family we took Comfort in the knowledge we were not alone , as in this world of covid technology brought us all together in remembering our dear mum.

We have family in Australia and Italy that joined . After the service myself and my sisters got many lovely messages from people that had watched online. We as a family would highly recommend Shaun and the service he is able to offer, what helped us through a very difficult day , was knowing we were not alone. Thanks again Shaun

Jacqui Griffin - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

What can I say. Shaun very kindly live streamed my mum’s funeral and burial. We are a large family so the covid restrictions coupled with elderly brothers and sisters and family living abroad but people were desperate to try and be with us as we bid our final farewell to mum. We had heard a couple of stories where people had attempted to live stream and it hadn’t gone well at all and so we didn’t really have a point of reference for who we could use.

You will appreciate that talking about filming a funeral is not something that sits easy as this is not a celebration but an unbelievably sad event you are trying to make openly available. But then we found Shaun. His response time and efficiency was magnificent and it meant we could make the arrangements extremely quickly so we didn’t need to dwell on this task.

Shaun was at the church early so that he could setup at an appropriate distance so as not to encroach on us. Shaun also did the graveside and again you would not know Shaun was there. As for the quality of the live stream, well to quote my aunt “the clarity of the picture and the way he filmed it, it was the next best thing to bring there, in fact, I felt like I was in the church too”

A massive thank you Shaun for everything you did, it meant that those unable to attend were able to attend and I know mam would have been very happy with how you helped us deal with things in these covid times.

Gordon Ridell - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Shaun live streamed my Father’s funeral this week and it really helped us get around the COVID restrictions. From start to finish Shaun was accessible, responsive and professional. His approach took all the stress out of organising a socially distanced funeral and live streamed the event to family right across the country, the link was easy to share.

I hope that others don’t need to use the service, but would recommend it to anyone who finds themselves who lose a loved one during a global pandemic.

Rachel Hampson - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We used Shaun to live stream my fathers funeral in light of numbers being restricted due to Covid. The picture and sound quality were great everything worked as it should and people commented that they felt they were there.

Deborah Corcoran - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

So happy with Shaun’s video of my Mummy’s garden funeral / farewell. He’s done an excellent job with additional editing & we will treasure this video forever. Debbie

Daureen Ubogu - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thank you Shaun for your professionalism whilst doing the live stream for my Mother’s funeral. My family in America and friends who were unable to attend were able to watch it live without any issues. Everyone watching said they felt they were there with us at the church and the graveside. Thank you for being so helpful and carrying out our wishes from the beginning to end. You made a very sad and stressful day that little bit easier. The quality of the recording was amazing and everyone commented on it. I would definitely recommend you to others who wished to do a live stream of an event. Thank you again from the Spalding Family.

Hannah Jackson - Celebrant - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Shaun is an absolute pleasure to work with; efficient, discrete, highly professional. He creates beautiful, simple films that capture funerals sensitively and respectfully and I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Pauline Turvey - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I just wanted to thank you once again for the web cast at yesterday's funeral. Immediately after the funeral we received a number of messages, including from America, Australia and Singapore saying how accessible and clear the web cast was, and how they were grateful they could watch the proceedings - some even remarked on how nice it was to hear the birdsong in the background. There were also a few comments on what a good idea it was, whether there was a pandemic or not.

We felt your service was seamless and very professional - so thank you again.

Jam Nabs - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I'd like to thank Shaun for his amazing work, he is so professional, thoughtful and dedicated to his work and will go out of his way to capture the day beautifully. Hid turn around time and attention to detail is incredible. He responds quickly to all your questions and overall his communication was impeccable. The biggest thing is the quality of the sound and the video clarity, it is absolutely amazing. Shaun allowed my family from all over the world to observe my fathers funeral and for that we would forever be grateful to him for his services.

Lucy Edwards - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Shaun was really great at my Dads funeral, so helpful to be able to know that the service would be available for so many people to see. Particularly in the pandemic. He was really professional and did a great job.

It would have been helpful to have an ability to attach a virtual copy of the order of service for viewers to use, but overall really good!

Angie Godwin - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Shaun streamed my sisters funeral 30.3.20, at this time we were only limited to 10 people because of this corana virus, family and friends were devastated to think they couldn’t give my sister the send off she deserved, thankfully I contacted Shaun and very pleasantly was able to help us, very helpful and professional in all he done, please if you are going through the heartache we went through, I highly recommend you to phone Shaun, so all your family and friends can share this sad and emotional time with you, you won’t be disappointed it is as if you are there, the quality is excellent, I can’t thank him enough, I’m also having it put on a dvd.Many thanks for a fabulous service

Shaun is brillaint, professional, humble, kind, tasteful, thoughtful and above all a great videographer and photographer. I am a celebrant , and Shaun is my absolute go to for streaming the funerals I take.

Can't fault him, he's an absolute star as I can 100% relay on him to bring his best every time

Stanley Edwards - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Shaun was absolutely brilliant and his standards of service were exceptional. At a very short notice, he delivered exactly what we needed to make some people very happy to be able to attend a very sensitive occasion.

Paula Murrey - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My father sadly passed away on 12th March 2020 right in the thick of the Coronavirus pandemic and the funeral was arranged for Monday 23rd March 2029. Due to problems with Coronavirus and social distancing, it was decided that only close family should attend. Knowing so many would be unable to make it, we were upset that dad couldn’t have the send off he deserved. He knew so many people it was a real shame they wanted to attend but couldn’t.

I googled a videographer on my journey from Essex to Manchester on the day before the funeral in a desperate attempt to help family and friends somehow share the service. My online query was quickly followed up by Shaun, who was busy but took the time to contact to say he’d see what he could do. Within the hour it was all arranged and Shaun and his team went out of their way to cover the service. We cannot thank them enough.

The coverage was very well thought through, taking in a glimpse of guests without invading privacy of mourners, even though there were only a few due to circumstance. The whole service was clear both vision and sound. We were also able to play the service again with it being available up to twelve weeks after.

The coverage meant family abroad could be present, friends and family could to, most were unable to make the service due to Coronavirus outbreak and the understandable fear of contracting the virus. It really made a difference and we felt comforted that family and friends were able to share the service of this wonderful man with us.

So a huge thank you to Shaun for delivering what we thought would be impossible within 24hrs of requesting his service. Wishing the company and staff all the very best, I have already made recommendations to others and will happily do so should the need arise. Thank you!!

Margaret Greer - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

An excellent, professional and personalised service. Tailored to your needs, nothing was too difficult to do. Editing the video to ensure it was finalised to our preference before sign-off was there top priority. Understanding and re-assurance adding a confidence to leave it in there hands, they did not disappoint and did an excellent job. 👍

Andrew Jancey - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My father passed on 30th October in Manchester and some of his family are down in Herefordshire His brother is 90 and difficult for him to travel. I wanted a way to bring his brother and family close to this service. From the minute I contact Shaun I had absolute confidence in his video streaming service. On the day he discreetly placed himself at the side of the room and the family in Hereford and Canada especially were able to watch. I am so impressed with his service and would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending.

Tom Pearson - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Had the pleasure to work along side Shaun. Excellent guy with tremendous wealth of experience and a service delivered with great professionalism, dignity, and heart.
