Why should I videotape my wedding?
Imagine what it would be like to go back in time and watch your parent’s or grand parent’s wedding. What a precious living memory that would be. One of the biggest regrets of modern day brides, is not having their wedding videotaped. A photograph can capture the look of a single moment, but it will not capture the sounds and the emotion of your day. Most couples say their wedding went by so fast they simply can’t remember everything. Don’t let your day pass you by!

Why do you use two or more cameras for my ceremony?
We use two or more cameras to get different viewing angles and improve the overall quality of your finished tape. Just as when you watch a movie you will see multiple shots with varying angles and composition, we use the same approach for your wedding video.

What is a short form movie?
What sets the short form package apart from our others is the editing and the approach we take to content creation. We will take the time to carefully analyze all the events of your wedding and create a short form movie of your wedding story, not simply a documentary. Just like your favorite romance movie, your will feel the emotion and the impact of your life as you see it set in motion. The finished product is something not only you and your family, but also your friends will want to watch for years to come. We also provide you with a full run documentary version of your ceremony.

Why do you use so many microphones?
For most weddings we carefully mic the minister and groom to start with. We also mic any readers, musicians, pianist, organist, etc. We then combine all of the elements so you can hear every detail of your wedding day. Audio is often one of the most neglected portions of a wedding especially by non-professionals.

What is your payment policy?
We require one third down to reserve your wedding date, and the remaining balance no later than two weeks before your ceremony date.

Will your DVD play in my DVD player?
Most DVD players manufactured after 2000 will work fine. If you are not sure, check your owner’s manual to see if your player will play DVD-R discs. You can also play your DVDs on a computer providing it can play DVD movies and accept DVD-R Discs.

Will DVD last longer than videotape?
DVD is a much more durable medium than video tape and should last as long (if not longer) than photographs from your photographer. DVDs are supposed to have 100 year storage life.

When should I book my videographer?
Weddings are often booked a year or more in advance and should be booked around the time you book your photographer.

Will your cameras be obtrusive during my ceremony?
We take the utmost care not to draw attention to ourselves. We do not typically use any bright lights during your ceremony. We are normally less noticed than your photographer.

How long will my finished DVD or video be?
This will depend on the package you choose and its editing style. Our short form packages are in the range of 30 to 45 minutes. If we do an entire documentary of your ceremony, your finished video may exceed an hour.
