In the mid-90s, Allan J. Egan, a lifelong movie buff stationed in the small Queensland town of Goondiwindi, took a leap into a new venture. Armed with one of the first compact video cameras on the market—a Sanyo he’d splurged on—he saw an opportunity that would shape the next few decades of his life. 

Instead of letting the camera gather dust, Allan started offering his video services for weddings. For ten years, he was the sole provider of such a service in the area, capturing the most cherished moments in people’s lives.

Fast forward to today, Allan’s business, Videos Elite, has become a trusted name in the industry. Specialising in bespoke wedding videos and photos, Videos Elite combines traditional storytelling with cutting-edge creativity, offering everything from mini and micro videos to Bollywood-style full-length wedding films.

A Passion for the Perfect Shot

Allan’s love for movies has been a driving force behind his success. “To this day, I’m a movie buff and believe a good video, short or long, is the best way to capture life’s big events,” he says. 

His passion and dedication to his craft have allowed him to create unique products tailored to his clients’ needs. Whether it’s a short, heartfelt highlight reel or an elaborate cinematic feature, Videos Elite delivers with a personal touch and unmatched quality.

However, like many small business owners, Allan faced the challenge of finding reliable avenues to connect with new clients. While word of mouth helped, he needed a platform to reach a broader audience, especially during the rise of the internet. That’s where ServiceSeeking.com.au played a pivotal role.

“Many platforms promised access to large numbers of enquirers, but none matched ServiceSeeking in numbers or cost-effectiveness,” Allan shares. Videos Elite gained exposure to a new and diverse range of media clients through our platform.

One success story that stands out is a couple who flew in from Singapore to propose on the Gold Coast. Despite unpredictable weather, Allan’s team delivered stunning videos and photos, earning one of their longest customer reviews to date.

Riding the Highs and Lows

Operating in the luxury market of wedding photography and videography means staying ahead of the curve. Videos Elite distinguishes itself through innovation. From fast turnaround times to introducing niche products like micro videos and Bollywood-style features, Allan keeps evolving to meet client demands.

Beyond just providing services, Allan takes pride in assisting potential clients with their enquiries, even if they don’t book with him.

Running a solo business has its challenges, and Allan is no stranger to tough times. The COVID-19 pandemic, for example, saw weddings in Queensland come to a standstill overnight. Rather than giving up, Allan discounted his services and weathered the storm. His perseverance paid off, allowing him to continue delivering unforgettable moments for his clients.

When asked about his motivation, Allan says, “Just push through. Large or small businesses, governments, and even countries go through cycles.” 

Looking Ahead

Allan’s vision for Videos Elite is to keep evolving, innovating, and enjoying the journey. Balancing work and personal life is a priority, with family celebrations always taking precedence. His advice to aspiring business owners is invaluable: “Don’t start something you’re not passionate about. A good idea can quickly turn into a grind idea.”

As Allan reflects on his journey, it’s clear that passion, hard work, and strategic partnerships like ServiceSeeking have been instrumental in his success. For anyone looking to capture life’s most precious moments, Videos Elite stands as a shining example of excellence.
