It will most likely come as no surprise when we quickly answer: absolutely, you need a videographer for your wedding. But why?
The number one regret we hear from people when they find out what we do is, “I wish I had hired a wedding videographer.”
Videography is a different medium from photography. Rather than photos in an album or on the wall, it’s a movie or clip you watch on special occasions with your family or when your children say, “Mum, can we watch your wedding again?” When friends ask about your wedding, you pull out your 3-10 minute highlights video and relive the action. Over time, it will be so precious to see yourselves and your loved ones moving, talking, interacting and capturing the tenderness of your wedding day.
Relive
Wedding videography is for the wedding dance you practiced, remembering your vows years down the track, and seeing the laughter and joy that surrounded you on your special day. Videography brings alive the sound and motion. For most of us, the only professional video we may ever have is our wedding. It captures the messages, words, mannerisms, and feelings in a completely unique way.
Your Style
Your wedding clip is unique to you and your style. You have a say in the editing process. If you have a highlights video as part of your package, you can cut and add clips, change the order of footage, and have a say in the music so it perfectly reflects you and your wedding day.
And Action
Sound is professionally recorded by plugging into the main sound system and wiring up the groom during the ceremony. Footage is recorded through multiple cameras to give you different angles and perspectives of the day.
It is important to remember that wedding videography is a different art from photography. As the years pass, they are the memories of the day that not only we can cherish but also the generations to follow. So when you ask, “Do I need a wedding videographer?” we say, “100%.”
