Meet Jamie
A decade of photo and film
Quality over volume: fewer weddings, each one given the time to be done properly.
53 Wedding Films is led by Jamie Somers, a filmmaker based in Derry with more than a decade of experience across photo and video work.
That background in video, photography, web and marketing shows up in the details: how a film is paced, how it sounds, and whether it still feels right on the tenth watch. The goal is simple. A wedding film that feels like your day, not a template.
What to expect
Easy to have around
Before
Clear communication from first enquiry, so you know what is happening and when.
On the day
A calm presence. Discreet when needed, supportive when helpful, never asking you to perform.
In the edit
Story-led editing with strong audio, built around what was said and felt.
Afterwards
A film that feels emotional, personal and refined, and easy to return to for years.
Why film
What a photograph can't hold
Movement, sound, atmosphere, and the voices of the people around you.
A wedding film gives you a way back to how the day felt, not only how it looked. That is what 53 Wedding Films is built around: something meaningful enough to revisit, made through a process that stays calm from start to finish.
