First looks have become one of the most meaningful parts of the modern wedding day. Private tender and full of anticipation this moment creates a space for connection before the ceremony begins. And on film it is often one of the most emotionally powerful scenes.
At Firm Films we approach first looks with respect and sensitivity. We do not stage or rush. We let the couple move at their own pace and use long lenses to give them space.
The build up the reaction the quiet words exchanged are all captured in real time with natural light and clean audio.
Some couples choose to read vows or letters. Others simply hold each other. No matter what unfolds it always feels true and deep.
In the final film this moment often becomes the heart of the story.
