ABOUT THE WEDDING VIDEOGRAPHERS

      My name is James, and my wife Marianna and I are steering every aspect of our wedding videography business. We are very hands-on with every stage from couples' consultations to filming to editing, and have a great team to deliver the absolute best wedding videos available in Kings Mountain, North Carolina. We personally guarantee every video, and we always love meeting with each bride and groom.

      We can't call ourselves newlyweds anymore, as we were married in September of 1998. In a twist of fate, a catastrophe at our own wedding sparked our desire to create wedding videos for couples. While we hired one of the best wedding photographers in our area, we decided to skimp on the videography and hire an amateur. Surely he could hold the camera and give us something better than a family member cuold do, right? Unfortunately, very wrong. The people we hired had professional equipment, but did not know how to use the equipment or provide even adequate coverage of a wedding. It took us several YEARS to get our video from him, and we were sorely disappointed with the results - uninteresting picture with horrible quality and virtually nonexistent audio.

      More than disappointed, feeling angry and cheated, we talked to other just-married couples, and heard very similar stories of pitiful wedding videos. Inspired to help other couples absolutely love their wedding videos, we plunged headfirst and passionately into acquiring the skills to become the best wedding videographers in Kings Mountain, North Carolina. Along the way, we began offering cinematic wedding movies with the feel of Hollywood blockbusters, and these unique and captivating wedding videos became so popular, we branched off to create a second company, Player Wedding Films, to focus specifically on them. Absolute Productions and Media still focuses on its original intent of providing documentary style wedding videos of the absolute highest quality that every couple can afford.

      Our wedding video business takes up the majority of our time, and we find it very rewarding, but we value our family time as the most important. We have two wonderful sons, Matthew and Daniel, who are a blast and a joy. We're so lucky to have them, and love watching them grow (although it happens way too fast!). They are so different in personality, are two years apart, but thankfully get along well (for boys). Marianna and I have a variety of interests, but not much time for extracurriculars after weddings, family and friends.

     

All our best,
James & Marianna Player
