Learn to film weddings the way I do. A step-by-step course that takes you from the first call with a couple to the final export, with the exact kit, settings and assets I use on every film.

  • 20+lessons
  • Video+ written
  • LUTs+ sound

Sound familiar?

If you're trying to get into weddings, you've probably typed at least one of these.

Skip years of trial and error

I've made most of these mistakes myself, so you don't have to. This is everything I wish someone had shown me when I started: what to do, when to do it, and why.

Before

  • Guessing your settings on the day
  • Running around trying to catch everything
  • Hoping the audio worked
  • Hours of footage and no idea where to start

After the course

  • Settings you trust from morning to night
  • A plan for every part of the day
  • Clean vows and speeches, with a backup
  • A clear workflow from import to delivery

From pre to post

The course follows a real wedding from start to finish.

Part 1

Pre-production

The work that happens before you ever press record, and why it makes the day run smoothly.

  • Meeting the couple, on Zoom or in person
  • Understanding the flow of their day
  • Kit, settings, batteries and backups
  • Planning your light for sunset

Part 2

On the day

How to capture everything that matters, while staying calm and out of the way.

  • Camera settings, framing and composition
  • Clean audio for vows and speeches
  • Arriving early and filming the morning prep
  • The ceremony, confetti, portraits and golden hour
  • Speeches, the first dance and the evening

Part 3

Post-production

Turning hours of footage into a film couples will watch again and again.

  • Organising footage and finding the story
  • Editing to music and building emotion
  • Sound design and mixing
  • Colour grading with LUTs
  • Exporting and delivering to couples

Lucas filming at a wedding

Meet your teacher

Hi, I'm Lucas

I'm the filmmaker behind Dixon Visuals. After years working in narrative filmmaking, I found my calling in weddings, and now I film modern, luxury weddings across Essex, the UK and worldwide.

Everything in this course comes from real weddings: the kit I actually use, the settings I trust, and the mistakes I've made so you don't have to. A lot of the time I'm shooting solo, so the course shows you how to cover a whole day on your own.

Who it's for

Whether you've just picked up a camera or you're already filming weddings and want to level up.

This is for you if

  • You're just starting out and want to film weddings
  • You film other things and want to move into weddings
  • You already film weddings and want better films and a smoother day
  • You want to learn from someone filming real weddings right now

It's not for you if

  • You're looking for a shortcut without putting the work in

Everything you get

  • 20+ video lessons across pre-production, the day and post-production
  • A written version of every lesson
  • My LUT pack for log footage
  • My sound pack of effects and ambience
  • My shot list template for the wedding day
  • Lifetime access, including every update I add
  • Watch anywhere, on any device, at your own pace

Your questions

Do I need any experience?

No. The course starts from the basics and builds up to intermediate, so it works whether you've just picked up a camera or you're already filming weddings.

What camera do I need?

Any device that can shoot video, and that can even be your phone. I film on LUMIX, and the settings lessons also cover Sony and Canon. But this course is about far more than camera settings. Telling a story through film comes down to how you plan, frame, capture and edit a day, not the camera body you own.

Can I read the lessons instead of watching?

Yes. Every lesson has a written version underneath the video.

How long do I have access?

For life, including every update I add to the course.

Can I watch on my phone?

Yes. Watch on your phone, tablet or computer, whenever suits you.

Are the LUTs and sound pack included?

Yes. They're ready to download from the members area.

When does it launch?

Very soon. Join the waitlist and you'll be the first to know.

What if I have a question?

Email me at lucas@dixonvisuals.com and I'll get back to you.
