Kind words from adored clients

I’m Rachael, but my friends call me Raye. I’m the founder of Now & Forever Films. To sum me up, I’m a hopeless romantic with a deep love for filmmaking and travel. Connecting with people and being able to move them by making art that I’m proud of is why I do what I do.

Scroll down to read some of the kind words past clients have written about their wedding experience with me.

Raye Scerri ~ Lead Cinematographer.

"Rachael was a pleasure to work with. She is firstly just a lovely person who is so easy going and approachable, we felt comfortable with her instantly. She was so discrete in her filming and made everything feel easy and natural. She managed to capture all the little details of our special day, even the lost ring saga which we can now look back and laugh about when we watch the videos. Rachael isn’t afraid to push boundaries and diverge from the norm. Her videos speak for themselves and her creativity really shines through. She understood the brief and created a wedding video that was truly unique. We received the files shortly after the wedding but we’re pleasantly surprised when Rachael sent a gorgeous little gift box with some film photos, nibblies and a usb with all the raw footage of the day. This was so thoughtful, but incredibly helpful because we all know how difficult it can be to download large file sizes sent over digitally. We couldn’t be more grateful to have Now & Forever Films as our videographer. We will cherish the films forever”

“RACHAEL!!!! Oh my god. We just watched our video and we’re absolutely over the moon. I literally cried 5 seconds in as it just brought back so many emotions and captured the love so perfectly! We cannot thank you enough for everything. You’ve been incredible to work with (we knew you would be) but we’re just blown away seeing the full video!! It’s everything we wanted and hoped for!! We will of course 100% be recommending you to everyone we know. Thank you thank you thank you - you’re incredible!”

Havana & Gene

“I could not speak more highly of Now & Forever Films. The whole experience from start to finish was so easy. From first contact with Raye, I knew I could absolutely and completely trust her. I had no brief and just wanted her to have creative freedom and do what she does best. Her work speaks for itself. When we received our video back, we were blown away. It was better than we could have ever imagined. Every single moment captured perfectly. We are so grateful to now have all those moments and feel as though we can re live our special day. We then received a surprise little parcel in the mail, with some delicious treats and all the raw footage. Absolutely shocked & blown away again. Raye truly goes that extra mile.”

Brittney & Dylan

“Words can’t express how thankful we are for Raye and the way she captured our wedding day in Sicily! From the very first conversation, I could tell she was going to be amazing to work with. She made us feel so comfortable right from the start, bringing so much energy, laughter, and the best vibes on the day. Her presence just made everything feel more fun and relaxed, which is exactly what we needed. Beyond that, her eye for detail and artistic vision blew us away. The videos are more than we could’ve ever hoped for—they’re a masterpiece that we’ll cherish forever. Raye is seriously the best, and we couldn't recommend her enough!”

Stephanie & Luke

“Raye is an absolute angel and incredible talent that we had the pleasure of experiencing first hand for our wedding. She really took the time to get to know my partner and I in the lead up, and understand our creative vision. She pulled inspiration from my (enormous) Pinterest board into her signature Raye style — editorial escapism meets documentary home movie. Playful, romantic, unique, and yet deeply personal for every couple. Raye also made us feel so comfortable with her on the day and in the lead up, truly bringing the best out of us and especially Hayden, who is typically very camera shy!”

Jasmine & Hayden

"Rach!! A MASSIVE thank you for being part of the most important day of our lives. There is no other videographer in the world we would have wanted to capture our day. You are so special to Mat and I and we will forever be in awe of how professional and talented you are. Cannot WAIT to see the footage. Adore you beyond words. Love, The Davolis x”"Rach!!

“I could not recommend Raye enough! She was an absolute breeze to work with and has such a sweet nature that made her so easy to be around on a day that can feel quite overwhelming. She captured our wedding exactly as we had envisioned it, and the videos and raw footage we’ve received have already been watched countless times by both us and our family. Raye was also kind enough to provide our ceremony footage early so we could play it at the second reception we hosted in the United States, and she delivered all of our videos and additional footage even earlier than proposed. She is worth every cent for capturing one of the most important days of your life. Thank you so much, Raye. I’m forever grateful for you and your incredible talent!”

Josh & Chelsea

“OMG Rach this is absolutely amazing!!! How epic! Can’t even explain how much I love it! We received the package with the usb and must say thank you for your the treats. The video was heaven, we had the biggest smile on our faces the whole time watching it. It’s incredible, your amazing at what you do. Thank you for being a part of it and providing us with these lifelong memories.”

Evan & Georgia

“Just wanted to say a MASSIVE thankyou for absolutely everything on Saturday. Your calm and caring nature made us feel so relaxed and we even had guests comment on how great you were. Very grateful to have had you there!!”

Megan & Joey

“Raye was absolutely incredible! She brought the vibes and the laughs. We are so lucky to have her as part of our wedding crew, she’s not only an artist but also a lovely and calming soul to have around on such a busy and emotional day. We adore her and couldn’t recommend her enough.”

Michaela & Jason

“On your wedding day you truely want the best people around you and Raye was just that!!! She is the most amazingly talented videographer who helped make two camera shy lovebirds feel so comfortable and natural in front of her lens. She had the perfect mix of blending into the crowd as well as bringing the high energy vibes when our nerves set in. Her professionalism and ability to capture the small moments made her a stand out choice for us. Her films are a slice of joy and pure art! She was such a pleasure to work with, in the lead up to our big day no question or request was to big or to small. Raye, thank you SO much for everything. I can’t recommend her highly enough!!“

“My husband and I are so glad that we took the time to search for the perfect person to capture our wedding day. I stumbled across Rachael's instagram page and immediately fell in love with her work! From the initial interaction, Rachael was warm, friendly, and calm. She was easy going and was happy to go with the flow. On the day of the wedding, I remember thinking to myself how talented Rachael was! From her creative direction, to her modelling the poses for us to see, I truly can't wait to see her vision come to life! She is highly experienced and has the ability to capture the soft romantic moments, as well as, create some upbeat, fun, engergetic moments. We had so much fun! We highly recommend you choose Rachael to be your videographer for your big day. Thank you Raye, we adore you!“
