If you are reading this you must already be considering the extra expense to have your wedding professionally filmed, rather than rely on footage taken by relatives. Nevertheless, many people are put off by the extra expense Videography involves or are wary of the quality or feel a professional stills photographer is enough to capture the days events.

However, there are many good reasons why you should consider hiring a videographer, here are just a few:

Despite the amount of time that has been spent on organising your wedding it is honest to say that the whole day will pass by you and it will be all over in a flash. Without a videographer you will never see your day from the perspective of your guests or re-live the moments and atmosphere of the day, the nervousness of the groom before the bride enters the ceremony and the laughter and joy of the guests as they congratulate the bride and groom. Will you remember those treasured messages and cheeky jokes during the speeches or the magical romance and attention of that all important first dance. These moments will never be truly captured in photographs.

A professional videographer knows where and when to get these all important shots they will also have access to areas of the ceremony where guests are un-permitted.

Videographers also have the benefit of professional broadcast quality cameras delivering superior quality even compared to the most expensive home camcorder. They also use professional sound recording equipment. Home camcorders use poor quality microphones built into the camera, these often pick-up camera noise and handling. They also pick up unwanted wind noise. The microphone is also often too far away from the targeted subject resulting in unwanted sound interference. Our sound equipment is separate from the camera and is placed appropriately to capture clear sound. A professional videographer is experienced to professionally compose, focus and expose shots in a variety of settings which is vital in difficult lighting or settings where home camcorders struggle to perform. Professional videographers operate cameras manually where amateurs will rely on automatic operation which doesn’t always interpret the setting accurately.

A videographer will always use a tripod to film appropriate moments such as the ceremony. The ceremony is the last place you want to see a wobbly shot especially if the zoom is being used. We use fluid-head tripods that ensure smooth movements and stillness when capturing this important moment. A handheld camera is a complete “no, no” in this situation.

A videographer can also provide a multi camera shoot to ensure that every angle of the wedding is covered. An amateur is unlikely to have the experience to place these appropriately and then properly match the footage to edit together professionally.

A videographer will edit your video to a professional standard carefully selecting and structuring footage. A well edited video will always flow in step with the action of the day with the transition from shot to shot and scene to scene moving seamlessly without the viewer even noticing.
