WHO WE ARE
We are James and Marianna Player and we are Absolute Video!
We started filming weddings in 2005 and after some training with some world renowned wedding videographers brought a level of wedding film making to South Carolina like no one had ever seen before. We did not stop there though. With every wedding we filmed we listened to our couples desires and continued perfecting our craft so that each and every couple walked away with a product that they were proud to have.
Thirteen years later and we still are pushing forward to make sure that each couple we work with has the opportunity to have a quality video a cost that will rival pretty much every other wedding videographer.

OUR PASSION FOR OUR CRAFT...
When we got married, we hired a cheap company to do a video of our wedding. Unfortunately, after the wedding we did not see anything for 6 years and when we did finally receive our video it was so pathetic that it was not worth having.
This devastating loss has driven us to work extremely hard for each of the couples we work with and to make sure that they have a video that they will love to watch over and over. Literally with every video we deliver we still (after 13 years of doing this) say to ourselves, "I sure do wish we had something like this".
OUR GOAL FOR YOUR WEDDING...
To achieve our goal we (both Marianna and Jamie) film each wedding with multiple cameras and audio sources. After the wedding, we then combine all of the content we capture with time proven editing techniques in order to create a quality product that many of our couples describe as "the best money spent on the wedding".
OUR FILMING STYLE...
If your goal is to have a "production" where the videographer literally takes control of the wedding day and directs every little detail, then we are definitely not the right videographers for you.
We instead rely on our experience and extensive knowledge of weddings to be ready for every special moment that will happen. Since we (Jamie and Marianna) have worked together for so long, we also are able to capture things from the perfect, multiple perspectives all because we "naturally understand" what each other is capturing at any given time.
This filming method allows us to stay completely out of the way of YOUR day while documenting it in a way that feels and looks like we were ALL UP IN THE WAY! 🙂
OUR DEDICATION TO YOU...
While this dedication ends with a video, it starts even before your wedding day and truly begins right now as you are considering your videographer. If you ever need anything from us we are always here day and night (contact us). Need to meet and go over some details? Let us know! Need some input on how the day will flow? Sure, we have seen so much, we can certainly help!
Long story short we are here to be your videographer but we always try to do so much more than just that and we cant wait to work with you on your special day.

Where do I begin? Absolute Wedding Films are the best videographers in South Carolina- hands down! I am so pleased with the work that Marianna and Jamie produced from my Charleston SC wedding. They listened to all of my "visions" and produced a video with higher quality than I ever dreamed possible! I would highly recommend Absolute Wedding Films to…
Shelby & Jeremiah Stevens
Marianna and Jamie are quite the talented husband & wife team! They worked their magic behind the scenes so much that most people didn’t even realize they were there at the wedding! The footage that they captured was incredible – we especially loved the work they did with the drone! When they sent us our wedding trailer, we both shed…
Georgia & Cameron Oswalt
James and Marianna were an absolute joy to work with! Less than 2 1/2 weeks after our wedding we were sitting on our couch crying, laughing, and reliving our wedding day through the video they made! They are easy to work with and go above and beyond with their videos. They are extremely good quality videos and they are both…
