About JOSEPH
Videographer, Cardiff, South Wales
My name is Joseph Drew and I run my own video agency, Drive-Thru Film. I have created many different videos, with a diverse range of subjects and I would say one of my main strengths is my ability to tell a story, visually. This is what prompted me to enter the specific realms of wedding videography. My priority as a wedding filmmaker is to capture the emotion of the day and focus on the smaller details, as well as maintaining a consistent, well-paced narrative. You can explore my latest work below.

“Joe and Drive-Thru Film did our wedding video in August this year. Where to start…..they are amazing! From the preparation, to their professionalism on the day. What we loved was you didn’t even know they were there and they managed to capture every single moment!! We had the most beautiful wedding montage trailer which makes me tear up every time I watch it! Then the full video wow, you literally can watch the whole day again. I didn’t realise just how special that would be until I had watched it. We will treasure it forever. Can’t thank you enough for all of your hard work on the day and in making the video.”
The Wedding Film Package
Our wedding package has your day completely covered. Starting with the bride and groom’s prep, filming throughout the whole day and for your first dance. The package consists of 3 individual films.
FILM ONE
The first film is a highlight reel, ranging in time duration from roughly 4-7 minutes. It serves as a cinematic trailer to the other films, incorporating the most beautiful and meaningful shots of the day. Great for easy sharing with loved ones.
The video above is an example of the highlight reel.
FILM TWO
The second film is of the ceremony. From the gathering at the venue before hand, capturing the atmosphere, the bridal entrance and then the full ceremony. Using two cameras and two videographers that will improve visuals from two different angles. The video will usually then conclude on the exit of the bride and groom and capture the post-ceremony atmosphere, such as the guests mingling with the new bride and groom.
FILM THREE
The third and final film is of the speeches. This video will specifically show the guests entering the reception, taking their seats and ultimately, we will film the speeches. We will be using a dual-camera set up, two videographers and professional sound recording equipment to ensure we capture each and every speech crisply. We will get some cinematic shots of the couple at the venue, the cake-cutting and finally, the first dance.
If you would like to see specific examples, please don’t hesitate to ask.

All of these films are filmed professionally with high quality equipment and edited on some of the best software available. My filmmaking style adopts a heavily cinematic feel that is only strengthened in the editing phase through meticulous colour grading and sound design.
All three films are individually crafted. We take great pride in creating beautiful, emotive and engaging wedding films that serve as lifelong mementos that can be cherished. We take a fly-on-the-wall approach to try and stay out of the way, as well as to capture more real, authentic footage of your wedding day.
Highlight reel sent on a Vimeo link for easy sharing and with a download option. The other options are also available to be downloaded, however, I will send them on a flash-drive, inside a personalised box for the bride and groom. A special, safe haven for a precious keepsake.
