Our Videos
Here are a few words about the making of our videos.

Consultation And Equipment

We will meet with you before your wedding to not only answer any questions you may have, but to ask some ourselves: How would you like us to shoot the wedding? Where and when would we start our day? What lighting options do you prefer? Do you like color or black and white? Do you want us to interact with the guests? Though we have our style, we still custom tailor to the needs and preferences of each client.

We use three small items to shoot a wedding: a small video camera, a small microphone and a small light. The lightweight equipment allows us to blend in with the guests and not call attention to ourselves.

Lighting
We use either a small on-camera light, or no added light at all working only with "available light". Our digital equipment delivers excellent results in low light. In extremely low light situations we use a slow shutter speed, which allows more light into the camera and creates bright pictures. When we use a camera light, we use it indirectly on the subject. This helps to minimize the effect of camera lighting as well as our presence.

Documentary Style Video
We try to let the pictures, the sound, and the editing tell the story, without a voice-over narrator. We have found that a wedding is full of interesting people and events and it is best to just record what is happening without added commentary.

The Length Of Our Videos
At your event we usually tape between two to three hours of raw unedited footage. We suggest the edited version to run about 60-90 minutes. At this length it is easier to watch repeatedly and show your family and friends.
