Portrait of Max, wedding videographer at Ryu Weddings

So, why weddings?

Filming has been my thing for years. Weddings came later, and they got me right away. There’s no other day where so much happens at once. People laugh, cry, dance and say things they’d never say otherwise. Catching those spontaneous moments is what I love most.


I’m still at the beginning of my journey as a wedding filmmaker, and I’m putting everything into it. On bigger days my friend Lisa joins me as second shooter, so we can be in two places at once and nothing slips through.

Your questions answered

Do you travel for weddings?

Yes, anywhere in Austria and abroad too. Within Vienna there are no extra costs. Further out I charge travel costs by distance, and if an overnight stay is needed, accommodation on top. You’ll see all of it upfront in your quote.

Can we choose the music?

If you want to, absolutely. Send me a few songs or wedding films you love, and I’ll find music with the same feel. Or just leave it to me and let yourselves be surprised. Because of music rights I only use licensed songs, so you can share your film online without any problems.

How do we secure our date?

Once everything feels right, we make it official with a short contract and a 20% deposit. And just like that, your date is yours. The rest is due when you get your film, so you can sit back and look forward to the big day.

When will we get our film?

Good things take time, and your wedding film is no exception. I give every edit the attention it deserves, because I’d rather get it right than rush it. Depending on the season, it can take up to around 12 weeks. If your package includes a teaser, you’ll have something to share within a few weeks.

Will you guide us in front of the camera?

Only if you want me to. A lot of couples are nervous about this, and that’s totally fine. You don’t have to pose at all. If you’re up for it, we take twenty minutes for a few relaxed shots, maybe at sunset, and I’ll tell you exactly what to do. No stiff poses, promise.
