ABOUT US
Behind the scenes infor on the Raleigh, North Carolina wedding videographers.

      We appreciate your visiting us and learning more about our high quality NC wedding video documentaries. We hope you've found enough information to move forward in choosing us as the perfect videographer for your Raleigh, North Carolina wedding.

      On this page, we'd like to introduce ourselves, and let you meet the people behind our high quality wedding videos. We are excited about meeting new couples, hearing their stories, and providing wedding videography they'll love, and we thought you might want to know a bit more about us too.

YOUR STATE WEDDING VIDEOGRAPHERS

      My name is James Player, and my wife is Marianna. We are so proud to be the couple behind the wedding videos that are the absolute best available in Raleigh, North Carolina. We are very hands-on throughout the whole process of creating your video, from consultations, to filming, editing, and delivery. Every step of the way, you can count on us and our team to deliver a wedding video you'll love.

      Marianna and I got married before either of us had ever thought about having a wedding videography business, and we hired an amateur videographer for our wedding, trying to save on budget because we had hired an expensive photographer. Let's just say that if you pick the wrong videographer for your wedding day, you can't go back for a do-over. The day only happens once, but our video turned out so poorly, we have been regretting it (and in my wife's case, literally crying about it) for years since and years to come. The video of our beautiful wedding day was shaky, blurry, uninteresting, whispered from a distance through a tunnel during a tornado, and took literally YEARS for the videographer to hand over! (We see why he was holding it hostage, definitely not the best work in town.

      Disappointed, we talked to other newlyweds and found their wedding videography experiences to be similar to ours. A quality wedding videographer was definitely needed in South Carolina. We have, since we started our business in 2006, quickly become the best, offering a wedding video unlike any other. Our highly successful Hollywood-style "wedding movies" became so in-demand, we created a second company to focus exclusively on that product - Player Wedding Films. Absolute Productions and Media still focuses on its original goal of providing an extremely high quality, documentary style video recording of your wedding, with packages every couple can find affordable.

      Wedding videographers don't have a lot of time for extracurriculars, even though Marianna and I have a variety of interests, we spend our weekends at weddings and our weeks editing massive amounts of footage and meeting with couples interested in our services. The time we do have, we value as precious spending with our family and friends. We have two beautiful boys, Matthew and Daniel, who are two years apart. They are absolutely a blast to be around, and of course we love them dearly. They are a lot different, personality-wise, but thankfully they love each other and tend to get along for the most part.

     

All our best,
James & Marianna Player
