Question 1

How much is your deposit and when is full payment due?

Accepted Answer

We require a 20% non-refundable retainer to secure your date. The remaining balance is due four weeks before your wedding date.

Question 2

How long will it take to get my video back?

Accepted Answer

We aim to deliver your film as quickly as possible while still giving it the care and attention it deserves. A wedding film takes time to thoughtfully edit and polish. Your video will be delivered within 6–12 weeks after we receive your song selection form. In many cases, delivery is sooner depending on our current editing queue.

Question 3

How do you use 2 cameras with only one videographer?

Accepted Answer

With many years of experience we know how to man multiple cameras by ourselves. Typically during live events, such as a ceremony or toasts, the secondary camera will be stationary (on a tripod) getting a wide angle while the main camera will be focusing in on close ups and expressions. It’s important to have multiple angles for a fully flowing edit and to ensure there is no break in the action!

Question 4

Why would I need 2 videographers?

Accepted Answer

Simply put, it’s hard to be in two places at once. A second videographer allows us to capture more moments and details throughout the day. During prep, one videographer can be with each partner, and during the rest of the day it allows for more coverage, faster setups, and more creative angles.

Question 5

Can I have the raw footage?

Accepted Answer

Raw footage is available for a fee that covers the cost of an external hard drive and shipping. Our footage is all digital so we can transfer it to a USB external hard drive. All we ask is that you do not ask us to re-edit your final video based on your viewing of the raw video. Also, be aware that some footage will have a flat color profile, which is meant to be enhanced in post-production with color correction.

Question 6

How long are you there?

Accepted Answer

Rather than strict hourly limits, we focus on capturing the full story of your day. Typically, coverage begins 2.5–3 hours before the ceremony for prep footage and continues through the end of reception formalities. Silver Package coverage begins 1.5 hours before the ceremony. Once we’ve captured plenty of dancing and key moments, we’ll check in with you to make sure everything you wanted has been covered.

Question 7

What’s included in the 30-60 Minute Feature Film?

Accepted Answer

The Feature Film is a documentary-style edit that follows your entire wedding day from start to finish. It includes all major moments, such as getting ready, the ceremony, portraits, and reception events, edited into a cohesive film that reflects the full experience of your day.

Question 8

Do you have insurance?

Accepted Answer

Yes! We’re happy to send a copy of our certificate of liability insurance to your venue or any other vendors upon request.
