FAQ

+What experience do you bring to our wedding?

We've filmed over 100 weddings the past few years from many different background and cultures. As wedding professionals we know to expect the unexpeced! We know how much time and effort has gone into planning your big day. We're here to capture your day in a way that will let you re-live the time for years to come.

+Do you work well with photographers?

We always get along great with the photographers our couples decide to hire. We like to bring a friendly atmosphere to the whole day and that includes other vendors in addition to the couple and their guests.

Most of the time our role is in the background to capture the candid side of your day. Usually, your photographer handles your posing for family portraits and sunset photos. With our long distance lenses we are able to stay slightly out of the photographers way and still capture the love and emotion of your wedding day.

+What events will be captured?

We like to show up half way through the hair and makeup process. We capture any first look/touch or any other special events during the getting ready part of the day.

We capture the whole ceremony from beginning to end along with audio of any vows, spoken vows, ring vows and anouncement of the bride and groom.

For the reception we capture all of the main events including the grand entrance, toasts, speeches, first dance, cake, boquet toss, garter toss, and any other events on your wedding day schedule. We leave about half way through open dancing at the end of the night.

+What is raw footage?

I take all of the footage from the day and make one video that has the original video and sound from from your wedding day. It usually works out to be 4-6 hours of footage.

+How much is the deposit?

The deposit for our wedding video services is 25%. The next 25% is due 7 days before the event date. The last 50% is due 30 days after the event date.

Once we have an idea of which package will be best for you, I'll send you an invoice and contract by email for review. You can pay the 25% deposit and sign the contract with these two emails.

+When do we get in contact again?

We get in contact one month before the big day to touch base. 1-2 weeks before the big day I like to schedule a quick phone call to set up show up times and addresses.
