Questions to Ask Your Wedding Videographer If You Don't Want a Dull Wedding Video
Hey there, newly engaged couple! Congratulations on taking the big step towards spending the rest of your lives together. So, you are planning your big day? That is fantastic! You probably have imagined your dream wedding for years. Have you given much thought to your wedding videographer? If you do not ask the right questions, you could end up with a rather dull video to remember your special day. Worry not! I have compiled a list of important questions to ask your wedding videographer. Buckle up and take some notes because taking a few simple steps now will help you make your wedding video the talk of the town.
What is the Style of Your Wedding Videography?
Do you want a cinematic-style, documentary-style, or maybe something else? Depending on the response, it will help you visualize what their final product will look like. Make sure it aligns with your vision for the big day.
What is Your Experience in Working With Wedding Videography?
You want to know how long they have been shooting, and how comfortable they are in the wedding space. They should be familiar with the challenges that come with wedding videography, such as dealing with different lighting or audio environments.
Can We See Some Examples of Your Past Work?
Before you book your wedding videographer, you need to know what they have done in the past, and if it aligns with your vision. Additionally, look for any big “No's.” If the quality is subpar, their equipment might be outdated, or they might not have any experience with your specific type of wedding.
How Do You Capture Audio at Weddings?
You will have shots of you walking down the aisle and saying your vows. You want to make sure the audio capture is clear, without any disturbance. Modern wedding videographers can mic the officiant and capture audio from other microphones strategically placed for high-definition playback.
How Will You Interact With The Wedding Photography Team?
The photography and videography team should be able to work together seamlessly, and the wedding videographer should be comfortable with working alongside other vendors on the day. Search for a photographer that makes movement apart of their flow. Remember “Motion Picture”.
I hope this list of questions was helpful in selecting your perfect wedding videographer. Remember, booking a fabulous wedding videographer may seem expensive now, but when you watch your movie-style wedding video, you will certainly not regret it. Don't be afraid to ask questions, make your wedding video an excellent memory for you and your future generations. If you inquire on these critical aspects, your wedding video will be a romantic story of your grand day. Congratulations again, and enjoy selecting sounds and pictures that capture the essence of your love story. Happy wedding planning!
