FUNERAL LIVESTREAM
About Our Funeral Livestreaming & Memorial Video Services
At Cole Studios, we understand that a funeral is one of life’s most profound and sacred moments — a time to gather, honour, and celebrate the life of a loved one. Yet, in today’s world, it isn’t always possible for everyone to attend in person. Distance, health, or travel restrictions can make it difficult for family and friends to be physically present. That’s why we have dedicated ourselves to providing professional funeral livestreaming and memorial video services — ensuring no one misses the chance to say goodbye, share in the memories, or feel connected to the service.
For over 25 years, we have been entrusted with capturing life’s most meaningful occasions. We bring that same compassion, sensitivity, and expertise to every funeral service we cover. Our goal is not simply to record an event, but to create a respectful, dignified, and lasting tribute that families can cherish for years to come. We approach each service as if it were for our own loved ones, putting care and thought into every detail of the stream.
Our setup is designed to be both discreet and professional. We use multiple high-quality cameras placed carefully around the venue to capture not only the speakers and celebrant, but also the atmosphere, the floral tributes, the congregation, and the ceremonial flow. We connect directly into the priest’s or celebrant’s microphone system, ensuring that every word of the eulogy, every prayer, and every reflection is delivered in crystal-clear sound. Combined with our secure, high-definition broadcast technology, this creates a seamless and meaningful viewing experience for those watching from anywhere in the world.
We understand that internet coverage can vary from place to place, particularly in regional or outdoor locations. If mobile reception is limited, we record the service in full using our professional equipment and upload it later that same evening. Families and friends simply need to refresh the dedicated page to watch the service back in full HD — giving peace of mind that the tribute will still be preserved and shared, regardless of technical limitations on the day.
Beyond livestreaming, we also create a complete memorial video that can be downloaded for personal archiving, shared with loved ones, or used in private remembrance. Many families have told us that having a permanent record of the service has been a great comfort, especially when revisiting the heartfelt words spoken and the moments shared. We offer a Funeral Service Download Page for easy access, making it simple to revisit these precious memories at any time.
Cole Studios is proud to serve families across Wollongong, Shellharbour, Kiama, Nowra, the Southern Highlands, and surrounding areas. As a boutique live streaming provider, we limit the number of services we cover each year to ensure that every family receives our full care and attention. To us, it is never just another job — it is an honour and a privilege to help you stay connected and to safeguard the memory of your loved one with dignity, respect, and compassion.

Additional Funeral Livestreaming & Memorial Video Services
Enhance your funeral livestream or memorial video with these valuable optional services, designed to accommodate different venues and viewing needs.
✅ Site Visit for Funeral Livestream Setup – $110
For new, remote, or complex funeral venues, we offer an optional pre-event site visit (up to one hour). This visit allows our team to test the mobile data connection and plan the best camera and equipment setup for your funeral livestream. If livestreaming is not possible due to poor signal, we will professionally record the funeral service and upload it the same day for family and friends to view online.
✅ Graveside Service Recording – $400 (Premium Package only)
Extend your memorial video coverage with a graveside recording. As part of the Premium Package, we dispatch two team members: one packs down the main setup while the other uses a separate camera and microphone to record the graveside ceremony. This footage is professionally integrated into your edited funeral memorial video, preserving every part of the farewell.
✅ Daylight Projector Hire – $350
For large indoor venues, our ultra-bright daylight projector ensures your funeral slideshow presentation is seen clearly by all guests. Capable of projecting sharp images up to 5 metres wide, it performs exceptionally well even in rooms with moderate ambient light — perfect for sharing treasured photos during funeral and memorial services.
✅ Large Daylight TV Hire – $350
For large indoor venues, our ultra-bright daylight TV ensures your funeral slideshow presentation is seen clearly by all guests. Capable of projecting a bright image in direct sunlight, it performs exceptionally well even in rooms with lots of ambient light — perfect for sharing treasured photos during funeral and memorial services
✅ PA Equipment – $350
We have a selection of cordless microphones, Bose PA systems, Sony Large 700w wireless speakers as well as a selection of other PA Equipment (we configure this for each scenario). This ensures maximum vocal quality indoors or outdoors.
Mobile Data & Funeral Livestream Reliability
At Cole Studios, we use professional-grade livestreaming equipment, industry-leading modems, and advanced streaming techniques to ensure the highest-quality funeral livestream experience. Our goal is to provide families with a seamless, respectful, and real-time connection to the service, no matter where they are.
However, for a live funeral broadcast to work, a stable mobile data signal is required at the venue. In rare cases, issues such as Telstra network outages, rural blackspots, or poor mobile reception may interrupt our ability to stream the funeral live.
If mobile data is not available at the time of the service, rest assured — we will record the entire funeral ceremony in full HD and upload the complete memorial video later the same evening. This ensures your loved one’s farewell is still professionally captured, beautifully preserved, and ready to share with friends and family across the globe.
