by Curtis Brownjohn Films
Hello and welcome! My name is Curtis Brownjohn and I'm a Brisbane Wedding Videographer and Wedding Photographer. I've been making films and taking photos ever since the day that I picked up a camera in high school and fell in love with the arts. After completing a Bachelor of Creative Arts with Honours in Cinematography at Flinders University, I worked in media and television for several years until starting my own video production business 'Curtis Brownjohn Films'. I've been providing couples with Wedding Videography and Wedding Photography for over a decade now and recently relocated to Queensland, enjoying an exciting new chapter and exploring the beautiful surrounds of my new subtropical home.
Being entrusted to film and/or photograph a wedding is incredibly rewarding to me. It's a chance to share my love for storytelling with a lens by documenting one of the happiest and most important occasions in our lives. I want you to be able to enjoy every moment of your wedding day while I capture it as candidly as I can, with my unique brand of energy ensuring that everybody is smiling for the camera! Whether it's a wedding video, wedding content creation, super 8 wedding film or a gallery of wedding photos, at the end of the day my wish is to present you with a bright, colourful and honest snapshot of your special day that you can laugh at, cry with, and cherish for the rest of your lives.

Testimonials
We were very lucky to see Curtis with our siblings wedding before ours, so we knew he was definitely going to be apart of our wedding.
He is such an amazing person inside and out and his videography/photography speaks for itself. He made us and our family feel very comfortable on our special day and was able to capture every moment. We are able to relive the best day of our lives over and over, with all the special little moments included.
I cried rewatching our video, and our short films were the best taste test of what was to come.
Thank you again Curtis, for everything you did for us!! Cannot recommend him enough to anyone for their wedding day, honestly amazing work!!

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you do both Wedding Photography and Wedding Videography?
Yes! Wedding Photography is a service I can provide for you in conjunction with or as an alternative to Wedding Videography. Using the same professional caliber DSLR cameras that I film with, I will take stunning high-resolution photographs throughout the day and provide you with a collection of carefully curated images ready for you to upload to social media, create a photo album with or print onto canvas if you so choose. I enjoy snapping stills as much as making movies and having me be the sole service provider capturing both your photos and video not only yields fantastic results for both mediums but also keeps the running of your special day efficient and fun! Please click here to find out more.
Can we add a Super 8 Wedding Film to our package?
Absolutely! For the vintage lovers out there, Super 8 is a type of film stock popular for making home movies in the 1970’s and today it’s a fantastic way to give your special memories a vintage vibe. If that kind of thing is your jam, ask me about purchasing a Super 8 Wedding Film. I will bring along one of my beloved Super 8 cameras and capture all the important moments of your wedding day on authentic Super 8mm film. You will receive a 3-minute Super 8 Wedding Film set to a cute piece of music that matches the vibe of your celebrations. You can book a Super 8 Wedding Film as a standalone service or bundle it with a Wedding Videography Package at a discounted rate and I will splice this gorgeous retro footage into your cinematic films. Watch examples of Super 8 films here.
Can you do Content Creation for our wedding?
Yes! You can now add Content Creation to your Wedding Videography and/or Photography package. Get your hands on a collection of energetically filmed vertical footage ready for you to upload straight to Instagram, TikTok and/or Snapchat. You will receive a short 'montage' edit of all the best shots, a collection of individual ‘moments’ exported as separate MP4 files, and a ‘shortlist’ of all your vertical footage exported as one long video that you can get creative with, edit and upload yourselves. Find out more on my Content Creation page.
Do you offer drone videography?
Drone Videography is an easy way to add an extra cinematic touch to your wedding videos and wedding photos. It is something I would highly recommend adding to your video/photo package especially if you are tying the knot in a particularly gorgeous part of the world. You will get see your wedding locations from above with breath-taking shots captured on professional grade aerial cinematography equipment. Drone Videography is limited by location and other factors, so please ask me about the best way to add drone to your package.
Can we customise a Wedding Videography/Photography Package?
Whilst I carefully structure my packages to ensure that your coverage comfortably aligns with the film(s) you are receiving, please don’t hesitate to ask me about adding extra features or moving things around to suit your budget and needs. Visit Package & Options to view my current Wedding Videography Packages.
Can we choose the music for our wedding videos?
No. While we all have our favourite tunes, unfortunately I cannot use music by commercial artists like Ed Sheeran, Beyonce, etc. in my video productions without complicated and expensive licensing requirements. This also extends to covers of the same songs by other artists. Not only is using this kind of music without permission against the law but it will make it impossible for either of us to upload the films to social media platforms without them being instantly flagged by music detection algorithms and taken down. I use a professional music licensing library called Musicbed.com to find and purchase original music by talented songwriters that I have determined will suit the narrative of your film(s) and tie all the heartstrings together. I take great pride in matching up lyrics thematically with the content of each wedding video and experimenting with various genres of music. It’s one of the reasons why my wedding films look and feel as special as they do.
Do you provide raw footage?
If you would like to see more of your special day, I offer a Raw Footage Film which can be added to any Wedding Video Package. Running for approximately 2 hours (depending on the duration of your video coverage), this feature-length film is a highly polished chronological account of your wedding day from start to finish. Every bit of footage captured throughout the day will be assembled smoothly with your formalities depicted in full. Relive your special day together on your anniversaries with a bowl of popcorn and a bottle of wine, or host a movie night and invite your loved ones over to enjoy it with you.
Are there any travel costs for rural or interstate weddings?
I am happy to travel by car to locations within 100km of Brisbane CBD without any extra fees. If your wedding is happening outside of this area then travel, accommodation, car hire and other fees may apply. While I am based in Queensland, I will always jump at the opportunity to travel interstate for a wedding so please don't hesitate to ask. I will provide you with cost estimations for you to approve and include them in the final price of your Wedding Videography and/or Photography Package.
What happens if you are unable to make it on the day?
In the event that I am unable to personally attend your wedding due to a personal matter, sickness, or other matter beyond my control, I have fantastic support networks in place and I will be able to find a talented wedding photographer and/or wedding videographer to capture your special day in my stead. You will receive a comprehensive list of Terms & Conditions that go over this and more in more detail when I provide you with your booking confirmation document.
How long before we get to see our photos and/or videos?
For Wedding Photography Packages I will provide you with a sneak peek gallery of photos within a day or two for you to share with family and friends. Similarly for Wedding Videography Packages I will endeavour to fast-track a sneak peek video to social media within a few days of your wedding for you to enjoy. Your other films and/or photos will then join my editing queue and will take me between 3 to 6 months to complete. This can vary depending on how busy my wedding season is as well as personal factors.
