A Wedding Videojournalist in a category of its own.
ONE FILMMAKER. TWO DECADES AT THE BBC
Story Of Your Day is a highly-curated, internationally recognised destination wedding film studio based in Switzerland.
We work with sophisticated, discerning clients who value authenticity, artistry, and timeless storytelling – clients who share our commitment to capturing not just how a day looked, but how it truly felt.
The Vision
Our clients want a film that feels nothing like anything they have seen before. Soulful, story-driven and deeply personal.
We deliberately move away from the formulaic, fashion-advert style that dominates the industry, focusing instead on narrative authenticity and the moments that actually mattered.
“Luxury is attention to detail, originality, exclusivity
and above all quality.”
– ANGELO BONATI
Luxury Wedding & Event Videography
Every commission is personal. Every film is made to endure.
Two decades at the BBC as a Pioneer Video Journalist. Fifteen years working alongside planners, venues and creative partners across Europe. I know how to make collaboration feel effortless and the results feel extraordinary.
You will find me straightforward, intuitive and genuinely easy to work with. This is a job I love. That shows in the work.
Our Approach to Seamless Collaboration
Delivering excellence means more than beautiful films. It means anticipating needs, reading the room and becoming an invisible but essential part of the day.
“Our role is to quietly strengthen your vision, anticipate your needs, and capture the day with preceptiveness and professionalism.”
My team and I adapt naturally to timeline changes, anticipate what planners need before they ask, and deliver work that reflects well on everyone involved. Prepared, discreet and fully committed from the first conversation to the final film.
What You & Your Clients Can Expect From Story Of Your Day
Thorough preparation and pre-event communication, ensuring seamless alignment with your timeline and vision.
All-day coverage – from morning preparations and setup to the final dance, with no limitations on hours or moments missed.
Flexibility on the day – with intuitive adjustments to support the natural rhythm of the event.
Discretion, professionalism, and an unobtrusive presence throughout.
Clear, thoughtful communication at every stage – before, during, and after the event.
A commitment not only to delivering exceptional films, but to being a reliable and trusted creative partner you can depend on.

Meet Emma Wilson
I am the Creative Director behind Story Of Your Day.
Two decades at the BBC as a Pioneer Video Journalist shaped an instinct for story that still drives every commission I take on today.
I lead a small, trusted team with bases in Switzerland and the United Kingdom, and I am personally involved in every project from the first conversation to the final film. Together we are well placed to capture weddings and events across Europe and worldwide
ETHOS & STYLE
As Creative Director, this is what I want for all my clients.
To be fully present all day, on the day
Our discreet, unobtrusive filming style allows us to capture moments as they naturally unfold. With minimal direction, clients are free to fully immerse in the day, enjoying it with their guests.
Expertise in Editing
I will tell their own individual wedding story in a cinematic styled, short-form film based on real events – with absolutely no ‘staging’.
ReLive the moment
To watch back their film and to feel like they’re in that moment all over again, to relive it and all the emotions it evokes. I am driven by a desire to redefine wedding films through beautiful and cinematic storytelling.
The best stories always end up being about the people rather than the event. “A single story can change everything” and with that in mind, I use my craft and expertise to bring my clients’ stories to life.

“It was an absolute pleasure working with Emma at the Montreux Palace for the W-Day of Michèle and Collin! Emma was a lovely discovery. I really enjoyed working with her. Her professionalism and ability to capture the essence of the day in the moment truly stood out.
I loved how she created a reel on the spot, which was a great touch and added so much value. The sneak peek teaser was stunning, and the couple was thrilled with her work.”

“Emma Wilson and her team from Story Of Your Day have just filmed a very prestigious event for me. They were professional, skilled, discreet and polished. The production was superb and the finished film is wonderful.
In every way Emma has been a dream to work with… intelligent in her approach and creating a unique creative memory image. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending her to everybody and I am greatly looking forward to working with her again.”
CYnthia Nicholson
Chateau Challain, France
“After meeting Emma on a styled shoot at my Chateau 15 years ago, we reconnected again two years ago at a ‘RSVP Official’ wedding conference. We hit it off and I asked her to film a wedding I was in the process of planning because I needed someone with a more unique vision. I just knew she’d be the right fit. Different edge on it, considerate and very artistic in her way of filming and producing. The clients are thrilled with their film and photos. The delivery for photos from her team and the video timing was also to be commended. So for this, I asked her to photograph and film the elopement of my son in Bahrain. Her ability to photograph and video was perfect for the situation and course I would highly recommend Emma for shooting any wedding anywhere in the world.”
At the end of the day, people won’t remember what you said or did, they will remember how you made them feel

Background & Experience
Before founding Story Of Your Day, I spent two decades working at the BBC as a Pioneer filmmaker, reporter, and presenter – including being part of a BAFTA award-winning team.
This experience provided not only technical excellence but also a deep understanding of authentic storytelling, narrative structure, and emotional connection.
Alongside my journalism career, I studied cinema and refined my craft filming beautiful weddings and collaborating with renowned cinematographers around the world – an experience that taught me to trust my instincts and approach every story with intuitive creativity.
In 2015, I made the decision to leave the BBC to dedicate myself fully to my passion – crafting cinematic wedding films that celebrate real moments, real emotion, and timeless storytelling.

Beyond Weddings: Events & Corporate Filmmaking
The instinct developed over twenty years at the BBC, reading a live situation, finding the story as it unfolds, capturing the moment before it passes, is exactly what event filmmaking demands.
Alongside weddings, I am commissioned to document exceptional industry events, brand occasions and luxury celebrations across Europe.
The approach is identical: observational, considered, story-led. Nothing staged. Nothing manufactured.
Recent commissions include RSVP Official at St Moritz and London, Switzerland Tourism’s luxury wedding industry events and FAM trips, and La Rocca, a private luxury venue in Piedmont, Italy.
If your events deserve the same standard as your weddings, let’s talk.

I especially love to educate, inform and inspire audiences while making my presentations motivational, engaging and entertaining.
“A Brilliant Storyteller. A Masterful Videographer.”
Testimonials from Luxury Wedding Videography Clients
EMMA Can work with any Brief
Emma and her team are so much more than wedding filmmakers. To create a set of mini-masterpieces encompassing our conference highlights and three very different evening events is no mean feat and she pulled it off spectacularly. If you want a seasoned filmmaker who can work with any brief, choose Emma.
COULDN’T BE MORE IMPRESSED WITH EMMA’S WORK
At Switzerland Tourism, we had the pleasure of working with Emma during our study trip with wedding planners in September 2023, and we couldn’t be more impressed with her work. Not only did she capture the essence of our event beautifully but she also went above and beyond to create stunning videos for our YouTube channel and several captivating reels for Instagram.
She worked tirelessly, ensuring every important moment was captured without intruding on the proceedings.
We highly recommend Emma to anyone looking for a top-notch wedding videographer. Her work is not just a service; it’s an art that adds immeasurable value to any event.
EMMA HAS A GLOBAL VISION
I recommend everything about Emma from Story Of Your Day – A capable and talented professional, always ready to bring the maximum value added to every project. A partner for even complex activities that go beyond just the activity of a videographer. A keen and reliable eye and a global vision that certainly comes from her professional background as a TV journalist in major international networks. It’s not easy to find so many talents in one professional, a real guarantee of success!
