WEDDING VIDEOGRAPHER
FAQs
Trying to find the right videographer for your wedding day can be a difficult task so here are some frequently asked questions that will hopefully help.
Why should I have a wedding videographer?
I've lost count of the amount of people that have said to me "I wish I had my wedding filmed, it's my biggest regret". We will personally be having a videographer at our wedding because we've put so much money into the day, we want to be able to relive it over and over again. We truly see it as an investment!
What hours do you cover?
We don't set hours on our packages because we want to make sure we capture as much as possible so you can have the best wedding film and we have plenty of footage to choose from. That being said we can't stay all evening unfortunately because we have to dash home and get everything backed up so if there's anything you want captured later in the evening we can discuss the possibilities
What's the next step?
If you choose us to be your wedding videographers the next step would be sending over a deposit of £250 and signing a contract to secure your date. Once that's done you can rest easy knowing we'll turn your big day into a beautiful keepsake that you can cherish forever. The final payment can be made up to 4 weeks before the wedding date.
Do you use a drone?
We love adding those epic, cinematic aerial shots to our wedding films, so the short answer is yes, we often do! However, using a drone safely and legally is super important. We're fully licensed and insured, and we always check with your venue well in advance to make sure they're happy for us to fly. Weather also plays a part – we can't fly in strong winds or rain. If all goes well, you can definitely expect some stunning bird's-eye views of your special day
When will I receive my video(s)?
The final product will be delivered in 6-8 weeks and will be posted to you on a USB in a personalised gift package. You will also get a link to them so you can download and share it as much as you'd like
Do you require feeding?
Yes please, that would be lovely! Capturing all those amazing moments from morning prep right through to the evening party means we're often on our feet for 10+ hours. A hot meal really helps us stay energised and focused on filming your fantastic day, ensuring we don't miss a thing!
Do you supply raw footage?
I present you with just the finished, edited product. The reason being that each wedding uses around 1 to 2TB of memory which is difficult to supply and requires a fairly powerful computer to edit. Sometimes I’m running around from place to place filming the floor, or I film something over and over to get it just right, or I could unintentionally capture unflattering shots of guests that must never see the light of day. You don’t want to see these things!
Do I have to wear a microphone?
Your video should sound as good as it looks, and clear, crisp audio is vital for that! We ensure this by attaching a very small lapel microphone to the celebrant/registrar/priest and one to the groom or bride if possible. We also mic up those giving speeches. They're so small you'll forget you have them on
How would you describe your style of videography?
Our editing is where the magic happens, weaving together slow-motion beauty with real-time joy and adding those emotional ceremony and speech moments over the top. And don't worry, we'll make sure the music and style feel uniquely yours.
