Hey there, lovely readers! If you're reading this, chances are you're in the midst of planning your big day and are considering hiring a wedding videographer. And let me tell you, you won't regret it! Trust me, as a professional videographer, I've seen firsthand the joy and emotions that a wedding film can bring to a couple long after their special day is over. But I know that with all the planning and decision making that goes into a wedding, it can be overwhelming to know what to ask and expect from a videographer. So, I've compiled a list of the most frequently asked questions that I get asked and I'm going to do my best to answer them for you.
What is the difference between a wedding videographer and a wedding photographer?
A wedding videographer captures moving images and sound, while a wedding photographer captures still images. Both are important, but they serve different purposes. A wedding film allows you to relive the special moments of your day, such as your first dance, vows and speeches. While, photographs are great for capturing specific moments and memories, but a video allows you to see the entire day unfold.
How long will it take to receive our wedding film?
It depends on the videographer and the package you choose. Typically, it can take anywhere from 12-16 weeks to receive the final film. Some videographers offer a "teaser" or "highlight" film that can be delivered sooner, to give you a sneak peek of your special day.
Can we request certain shots or moments to be captured on our wedding film?
Absolutely! Your wedding film is all about telling your unique love story, so it's important that the videographer knows your specific requests and preferences. Be sure to have a conversation with your videographer about any special moments or shots that you would like included in your film.
How much does a wedding videographer cost?
The cost of a wedding videographer can vary greatly depending on the package and services offered, as well as the location and experience of the videographer. It's important to have a budget in mind, but also keep in mind that a wedding film is an investment that will last a lifetime.
Can we have a copy of all the raw footage?
It depends on the videographer. Some may include this in their package, while others may charge extra for it. Be sure to ask about this in advance and consider if you want the raw footage or just the final edited film.
