Booking the same team for both photography and videography brings several benefits:
Seamless Coordination: Having a unified team ensures smooth collaboration, avoiding conflicting timelines and capturing moments from diverse perspectives.
Consistent Style: A combined package results in a consistent style and vision across both photo and video, creating a cohesive representation of your wedding day.
Familiarity with the Team: A single team handling both services means familiarity with each other's working styles, facilitating a smoother collaboration without interference.
Logistical Ease: Dealing with one vendor simplifies coordinating schedules, locations, and timelines, reducing the likelihood of logistical challenges.
Potential Cost Savings: Bundled packages may offer cost savings compared to hiring separate professionals for photography and videography.
Videographing a wedding with two cameras is essential for comprehensive coverage, offering diverse angles and perspectives simultaneously. This approach ensures seamless editing, provides a backup in case of technical issues, and allows for efficient workflow during fast-paced events. It contributes to a more polished, professional-looking wedding video with enhanced storytelling capabilities by capturing a broader range of emotions and moments.
If you choose our photo and video bundle package, we also have a extra camera or two for photography depending on the package you've chosen.
We use professional-grade sound recording equipment to ensure the clarity of your vows and speeches, considering sound as crucial, if not more so, than visuals in capturing your wedding day. To achieve this, we use a combination of onboard microphones attached to our cameras and lavaliere microphones connected to a compact recording device. For the ceremony, this discreet wireless DJI set up is perfect. We also attach a mic to the registrar with their permission. This same method is applied for recording speeches during your reception, ensuring the audio quality is of the highest standard with minimal distractions.
Certainly, you must have questions; planning a wedding is no small job.
We comprehend the intricacies and uncertainties associated with orchestrating such a significant event.
Our aim is to offer you reassurance and expert support throughout this entire process.
Let's delve into the responses to some of the frequently asked questions we encounter from couples, similar to you, regarding our wedding videography and photography services. Our intention is to address any worries you might have as you navigate towards creating a flawless wedding day..
We strive for discretion, aiming for you to hardly notice our presence. Occasionally, we may offer subtle guidance or help. We might request a brief moment with you both on your day just to confirm any other things that's happening but apart from that, relax and you won't even realise we are present .
Our approach values your natural behavior, allowing us to seamlessly blend into the background and capture those unexpected special moments.
We are based in Nottingham, England but we're open to traveling extensively. We ask for a travel expense to cover petrol over a 15 mile radius. For weddings outside 60 mile region, an overnight stay fee of £150.00 may apply. We're also available for destiation filming, with additional charges. Feel free to reach out for a customized quote, and any extra travel expenses will be clarified during the booking process.
-To secure your booking for our services and save the date, we ask for a £250 non-refundable deposit for all of our wedding photo & film packages.
-When the deposit is paid, the contract can be read and signed virtually online.
-The remaining balance to be paid 2 weeks prior to the sacred day.
-From there I send you a wedding questionnaire for you to fill out 4 months before when all final amendments are made. This includes every minor detail, from the wedding schedule to the important family members present on the day.
-Lastly we then arrange a meeting via teams/zoom or at our office in Nottingham to go over the final schedule and amendments and get excited about the magic to come!
Regrettably, we are unable to accommodate your selected music choices for our videos due to copyright licensing restrictions. It's against the law!
But don't worry we have this covered as the selection of music is a crucial element in shaping the mood and pace of your film. Similar to the way soundtracks complement narratives in movies, our curated music enhances the storytelling experience. It's important to note that our commitment to proper music licensing ensures legal compliance, distinguishing us from companies that may claim to allow any song choice, potentially operating outside the bounds of the law.
We use a copyright free music source website called Soundstripe. If you do not like our music selection(which we never have experienced) then you can pick from the thousands of soundtracks of the SoundStripe platform.
Answering the question above would require an extensive article, but it's crucial to consider the comprehensive aspects involved in wedding videography. This includes administrative tasks, responding to inquiries, marketing efforts, the investment in equipment (cameras, tripods, audio recording gear, lighting, and specialized tools for unique shots), ongoing gear maintenance, transportation, client meetings, schedule coordination, pre-event preparations (charging batteries, cleaning lenses, clearing memory cards), actual filming, and the substantial editing process and editing/webiste platforms we have to pay for.
Bear in mind that editing alone typically consumes 40-50 hours per wedding film, involving tasks such as sorting through footage, selecting the best moments, choosing suitable music, crafting a compelling narrative, color grading, touch-ups, and the final export and upload. Wedding videography is an intricate, time-intensive process, and the pricing structure is reflective of maintaining a high-quality end product. Every penny invested is a commitment to preserving a day that can never be replicated. Our wedding video packages are crafted with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring a unique and memorable representation of your special day.
Approximately 5-7 weeks following your wedding day, you can anticipate the delivery of your wedding video. I invest time in meticulously curating and editing the finest moments captured, skillfully crafting a compelling narrative that beautifully encapsulates the essence of your speciaI day. I will furnish you with the wedding films, accessible for online viewing and easy sharing with your loved ones as well as uploaded onto a USB (that can be personalised for £50 extra).
