“My journey in wedding videography began at the age of 16 in Sorrento, Italy when I was working with a wedding videographer. Back then I only carried the batteries and sorted out the lighting, but soon (and not very typically for a 16-year-old boy) filming weddings became my passion.”
That moment sparked a lifelong dedication. What started as a behind-the-scenes role quickly grew into something much more meaningful. For Gaetano, it wasn’t about the gear — it was about witnessing raw emotion, real love, and the energy that surrounds wedding days.
“I create wedding films that feel alive, not just beautiful, but honest.”
This single sentence defines Gaetano's signature style. While many are drawn to perfectly composed scenes and picture-perfect details, he looks for something deeper.
“What draws me to this work isn’t the grand gestures or choreographed moments. It’s the atmosphere. The energy in the room. The small, quiet details that say everything without a single word.”
He seeks out the subtle—the fleeting—and captures it with nuance, artistry, and soul.
Behind the magic of every film lies cutting-edge equipment that enhances the emotion on screen.
“We use Sony Netflix approved cameras and DJI drones.”
This combination allows Gaetano and his team to deliver both intimacy and grandeur—from stolen glances to sweeping aerial views of the wedding venue. His use of drone videography provides a fresh, immersive perspective that adds depth to each couple’s story.
“I enjoy having the privilege of experiencing a myriad of unique wedding traditions and cultures around the world. From lively African weddings to lavish, days-long Asian ceremonies and traditional British celebrations in grand country mansions, I’ve witnessed a diverse array of breathtaking ceremonies all over the world, even in the unexpected company of rain! It feels like travelling without taking any planes.”
It’s not just the beauty of the locations that inspires Gaetano — it’s the uniqueness of each love story, shaped by culture, tradition, and emotion. Every wedding is a new adventure, a new rhythm, a new heartbeat to follow through the lens.
“I always recommend all clients to jump on a call with me before making any decisions and before even looking at prices. I make sure I explain in detail how me and the team would work on the day and in how we will capture every single moment. I also share with clients any tips and tricks that I learned along the way and how we can achieve their desired outcome based on what their plans are.”
His process is built on connection. These calls set the tone for collaboration — rooted in clarity, comfort, and shared vision.
“Enjoy every minute from planning to the end of the day. Try to forget about any drama, any fear and the desire to be perfect and impeccable. This is a celebration of your love and your story and your happiness is all that matters.”
Gaetano's advice reflects the core of his approach. Your day doesn’t need to be flawless — it needs to be real. And those real, imperfect, joy-filled moments are what make the best wedding films.
“Yes! I might be biased because I am Italian, but I love Italy as each location has so much history, culture and a unique look so you can really see the beauty of art, history and nature everywhere you go.”
Whether it's the coast of Amalfi, the countryside of Tuscany, or the streets of Sorrento where it all began, Italy holds a special place in Gaetano’s heart — and in his films.
“Through these experiences, I’ve gained a lifetime of expertise in creating enduring memories for couples. It is my privilege to work with you to create memories that will last a lifetime. I look forward to a future filled with declarations of love, celebrations of romance, and creating wedding videos that capture those sweet moments so that you never forget how precious your wedding day – and your love – really was.”
And that’s what Gaetano Di Giacomo Media Production is all about — a promise to preserve the moments that matter, with elegance, emotion, and honesty.
