Weddings are a memory many capture as a frozen moment in time. But so much emotion can be lost when looking back at those moments, not only for the couple but the friends and family NOT there.

Marriages of all kinds, whether it's a huge ceremony or an elopement, whether it's between a Man and Women, Man and Man, Woman and Woman or however you identify your gender, are beautiful moments that have much more to say than just look at these people smiling in the photographs.

A video allows EVERYONE to truly see the happiness as the events unfold, especially since most people don't get to see the BRIDE and GROOM in the very beginning. From getting dressed and putting on makeup, to first look, to ceremony, reception... and maybe the after party many people miss out on the true experience of getting married.

Weddings are a STORY that needs to be captured as such.

I never charge for how long I am there!

I am there for as long as you are. If your day starts at 8am, so does mine, if it ends at midnight, so do I.

There are 2 styles of video
1. Highlight Video
2. Documentary/Reality TV

HIGHLIGHT VIDEOS: Simple and straight forward highlight of your wedding. Cinematic shots with music, intercut with sound bites and audio clips.

For these I charge based on the length of the video and never my hours (most charge 4hr/6hr/8hr packages). That way you don’t have to decide what’s more important to you, the beginning, middle or end.

For highlight videos I’m typically a one-person crew. But depending on the scope of the wedding and what needs to be captured, additional crew may be needed.

Documentary/Reality TV: Unfortunately I don’t have any personal examples as this is a somewhat new approach to wedding videos. But in this style we shoot your wedding like its a Reality TV show. This results in a longer form video following the events of the day with more talking heads and interviews from guests, family members and anyone else who want to speak about the couple on camera. But not only the wedding day, this could also include the preparation for the wedding like shopping for the dress/suits if they haven’t been picked yet or a dinner party the night before. Whatever it might be, the options are endless.

An example of this would be from Justin Porter Media: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aqd33ujCcME

For this style, ideally, one additional shooter minimum is recommended but depending on the scope and complexity of the wedding, options can be discussed!

I don’t charge based on the length of the video and instead it’s based off the scope, complexity, crew and equipment needed to execute your video as best we can!
