Funeral Videography at St Brigid’s Catholic Church, Coogee

 

I recently travelled to Coogee to capture the funeral of a former President of the Bondi Surf Lifesaving Club, a much-loved figure in Sydney’s eastern suburbs and surf rescue community.

The service was held at the beautiful St Brigid’s Catholic Church, Coogee, and was arranged by Walter Carter Funerals. In a touching tribute, the surf club honoured him by naming a rescue boat after him, a lasting legacy to his years of service and dedication.

One of his sons, who lives in New York, was unable to attend in person. To ensure he could still take part in the farewell, the family chose to have the service recorded. This way, he could experience the tributes and memories shared on the day.

Adding a personal touch, the music played during the service included songs sung by the deceased himself, an emotional reminder of his life and the joy he shared with others.

It was a privilege to provide funeral videography in Sydney’s east, ensuring that distance did not prevent loved ones from being part of this special farewell.
