We don’t create content. We don’t follow trends.

This is Wedding Videojournalism.
A category of its own.


A story-first approach to luxury weddings, shaped by two decades at the BBC.

We didn’t adopt storytelling.   It’s where we began.

Story Of Your Day is an international wedding videography company based in Switzerland, commissioned to film luxury weddings across Europe and worldwide.

Founded and directed by Emma Wilson, Pioneer BBC Video Journalist, every film is shaped by two decades of experience in capturing real, unscripted moments.

Our work is observational, considered and quietly directed, allowing each wedding to unfold naturally while ensuring every detail is captured with intention.

When you book Story Of Your Day, you book Emma Wilson. From the first conversation to the final film.

Every film is directed, filmed and edited by Emma Wilson. No exceptions.

Purveyors of Time Travel Through Cinematic Storytelling

We don’t just film your wedding. We take you back in time, not just to how it looked but how it felt.

The Vision

We approach every wedding with a clear focus on experience, detail and discretion.

What matters is not just how it looks, but how it feels to be there – for you and for your guests.

Every decision, from how we film to how we work alongside your team, is considered with that in mind.

Wedding Videojournalism

Seen. Felt. Remembered.

“There is no one else to call if you’re planning to have your wedding filmed.”

” We will always have this beautiful memory of our day to look back on and could not be more thankful.” 

“Emma is a true artist as she weaves every musical note, moment, look, smile, sob, and kiss into the magical story of your day.”

Our Approach

When you book Story Of Your Day, you book Emma Wilson. From the first conversation to the final film.

We begin by understanding your priorities, your people, and the atmosphere you want to create.

We work closely with your planner and creative team, ensuring everything flows seamlessly and your guests remain at the centre of the experience.

Our presence is calm, observant, and intentional. Nothing is staged. Nothing is forced.

I lead every film. I tell the story. For larger or multi-day celebrations, I am supported by a trusted team working alongside me to ensure everything is covered.

YOUR EXPERIENCE

With Story Of Your Day, you’re not just investing in a film; you’re investing in a feeling.

From the very first enquiry, I take time to understand who you are, what matters, and how you want your wedding to be remembered.

You’re not handed a formula. You’re listened to.

I don’t arrive as a stranger. By the time your wedding day begins, there is already trust, understanding, and ease.

I work closely with your planner and creative team, ensuring everything flows seamlessly and your guests remain at the centre of the experience.

Every wedding has its own energy. Some are quiet and intimate. Others are high energy and full of life. The film reflects that.

On the day itself, my presence is calm and intuitive.

Nothing staged. Nothing forced. I anticipate moments as they unfold, so you can stay fully present while everything meaningful is captured.

Where needed, I am supported by a trusted team who work alongside me to ensure every part of the day is covered with the same care and attention.

Afterwards, your story is carefully shaped in the edit. Layered. Considered. Personal. Every film is directed, edited and delivered by me.

Nothing is outsourced.

People won’t remember what you said or did, they will remember how you made them feel

“It’s not just about the wedding day. It’s about the two individuals becoming one and the journey it took to reach that point and that’s why we commissioned you, because you totally get that,”

INTEGRITY

Without

COMPROMISE

Integrity is the foundation of Story Of Your Day.

It’s a standard I carried from my years as a BBC Video Journalist, and one I don’t compromise on.

I don’t follow trends or replicate other filmmakers. I don’t create generic edits.

Every decision, from how I prepare to how I capture and edit, is guided by instinct, experience, and a commitment to doing things properly.

That is why every film feels considered, not constructed.

“Emma brings a unique vision, artistic instinct and a highly considered approach. She was the natural choice for our Château Challain celebration, and later for my son’s wedding in Bahrain. I would recommend her for any wedding, anywhere in the world.”

Cynthia Nicholson, Planner & Owner, Château Challain, France

I’m genuinely out of words to describe Emma and her talent.

She gave us something we didn’t think was possible here – privacy, calm, and complete trust in a place that is usually full of tourists.

When our wedding director showed us different videographers, Emma stood out immediately.

She understood us.

That connection is why we chose her.

Emma has this ability to be invisible and everywhere at the same time.

You don’t feel like you’re being filmed, but she’s catching it all. And then you get the film and it just hits you.

Watching it ‘feels’ like the day.

I approach every wedding in the same way, with respect, understanding, and a focus on the people at the centre of it.

Every story is different. What matters is the connection, the atmosphere, and the moments that make it meaningful.

Who you are is never something that needs to be explained.

You’re free to be fully yourselves. I take care of the rest.

Not Every Wedding Looks the same


Every celebration has a story

Beyond Weddings

I am commissioned to film luxury events and private celebrations across Europe and beyond.

These are live environments. Unscripted, fast-moving, and often complex. My background as a BBC Video Journalist means I work instinctively, capturing what’s happening as it happens.

From intimate gatherings to high-energy productions, the atmosphere leads. I follow.
