Summary
Goodwood is a proper stately home and its scale is the first thing I have to think about. 180 for the ceremony, up to 225 in the evening, in rooms that were built to hold a great deal more than that. It is very easy to come away with a film that is all architecture and no people. I work hard not to do that.
The Ballroom is the room everybody comes for and it earns the attention. High ceilings, art on the walls, and light that changes completely depending on the hour. If your ceremony is in there, tell me when, because the room at two o clock and the room at five are not the same room.
The estate around the house gives me options that most venues simply cannot. Downland, parkland, and long views towards the South Downs. When we slip away from your guests for twenty minutes there is somewhere genuinely worth walking to.
Introduction
Accommodation is at the Goodwood Hotel rather than the house itself, so there is a short transfer in the morning. It is not a problem, it just wants factoring into the timings. Tell me where you are getting ready and I will build the schedule around it.
The Setting
No posing, no forced smiles, no interruptions. In a house this size that discipline matters more, not less, because the temptation is to start directing people around beautiful rooms. I film what actually happens instead.
