Company details

  1. Funeral Director
  2. Movie Streaming Service

Written by the company

We are professional, experienced film makers and photographers in the Wedding and Events Industry, covering West Midlands and all across the UK. We are a husband and wife team, with a strong passion of capturing the raw and natural emotion of people and their surroundings, with an un-staged and non-intrusive approach. We offer Photography, Videography and Live Streaming of Funerals. Funerals are such an emotional occasion for everyone but they are also a celebration of your loved ones life. We want to be able to capture as much of that raw emotional love as we can and allow you to share such fond memories and tributes to your loved one, by the power of film and photographs. Unfortunately, due to ill health, travel restrictions or Government restrictions, like we are all facing at this terrible time in life, not all of your family and friends are able to physically attend on the day, which is where we can help by live streaming the day for you! Therefore, for all of those who sadly cannot be there in person, they can still view and feel they are actually there and pay their respects at the same time, on the day. Video & Image Service We can also put together slideshows or a video of any images and clips you may have. The video can be played before the Live-stream for your viewers to watch before the stream goes live.

I can not Thank Lester enough

I can not Thank Lester enough ! To me any camera at a funeral was wrong, but how wrong was I. Because of Covid and the limit on numbers allowed inside the crematorium i felt i had to do something for those who wished to attend my Wife's funeral, even over how i felt.
Lester THANK YOU ! You would not know he was there, and the filming of the service was perfect. I had so many comments from relatives and friends from as faraway as Australia, talking about parts of service. I Was There but i wasn't, i was in my own thoughts. So YES it took me a couple of weeks but i did watch it and it was beautiful, I AM GLAD I DID and again THANK YOU !

Lester and Leanne are an excellent firm…

Lester and Leanne are an excellent firm . They give a very warm and personal service. Their product for us has been viewed all around the world, and although this was a funeral, it brought great comfort to the many who viewed both as a live stream and afterwards. We have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone who is thinking about a live streaming of an event.

Thank you so much Helen for such a lovely review, we really do appreciate it!

Your were a joy to work with and we were honoured that you chose us to live stream your Mother’s Funeral, to your friends and family who were unfortunately unable to be there in person, due to COVID-19 restrictions.

It really was a unique, musical and loving service! You all put your heart and souls into it and certainly did your mother extremely proud!

Thank you so much for being so lovely and for putting your trust into us.

Warmest wishes

What great service from 4 LW films

What great service from 4 LW films. From the first point of contact via phone when Lester called me back after I left a message (yes you read it right, he actually replied to my message, very refreshing). He went through the whole process explaining it to me, a total technophobe, in simple layman's terms. Following up text messages, and emails also sent out again reassuring me of any questions I had. On the day of my Mum's funeral the filming was done very professionally, and the end product was perfect. Many of Mum's relatives and friends couldn't attend the funeral due to Covid-19 so the stream gave them a lot of comfort. I really can't recommend this company enough, they really are very very good. Thank you Leanne and Lester

Lester and his wife Leanne were so…

Lester and his wife Leanne were so helpful in preparation for my dads funeral. Everything was perfect. The pastors of the church thought very highly of the professionalism and said they would recommend for any further services that needed live streaming! Thanks again Lester & Leanne

First class, friendly service.

A friend recommended this service to me. I needed a live-stream set up for my husband’s funeral. From the moment I contacted Lester, I felt he would do a good job. He was clear about the service he offered, promptly answered any queries and arranged everything without fuss or delay. On the day of the funeral he did exactly as requested showing great respect and understanding. Afterwards, many people commented on the beautiful clarity of the live-stream. I watched it myself and couldn’t be more pleased.
This is a small family business offering a first class professional service. Thank you so much Lester and Leanne. Highly recommended.

Thank you so much Wendy, for your lovely review, we really do appreciate your kind words.

We are delighted that you, your family and friends were so pleased with the live stream coverage and are so grateful to you, for putting your trust into us and allowing us to capture such an important and emotional day for you.

We both take so much care and pride in our work and really do take the time to build a relationship with you... to hopefully add reassurance and an added comfort that at such a difficult time, your friends & family who cannot attend on the day in person, are still able to watch live and say their prayers and goodbyes.

Thank you so much, once again!

Sending our thoughts and prayers to you and your family.

Lots of love,

Highly Recommend 4lw Funerals for their Care and Professionalism

Up until a relative asked us 4 days before our Dad’s funeral whether we were live streaming it, as due to current circumstances so many family and friend were unable to attend, we hadn’t even thought about it. We decided that if we could find a company that didn’t take advantage of our situation and more importantly would take away any stress associated with live streaming we would proceed. Lester and Leanne did exactly that and much more. From the moment I spoke to Lester I knew we had found the right people for us. Lester listened, heard and understood what we wanted to happen. Once I had given them the church contact number they did the rest – they were totally professional and so discrete that I only remembered afterwards when we were getting messages of thanks from family and friends who watched it that they were there.
We will be forever grateful to them for allowing family and friends to be a part of Dad’s funeral. I highly recommend Lester and Leanne and 4lwfunerals

We are so pleased that you were so happy with the live stream and our customer service, which is our main priority. Our hearts really do go out to you, at such an extremely difficult and emotional time!

We are just so grateful that we were able to provide a live stream service. All of your family and friends, who were not allowed to attend the funeral in person on the day, still got to watch live, say their goodbyes and send their love and well wishes to you all, which is just so precious!

Thank you so much for putting your trust into us, for capturing such an important and emotional day and for being such a wonderful, friendly and caring person to work with.

Sending our thoughts and prayers to you and your family.
