Here you will find answers to some common wedding videography questions. Please
know that by no means do we think that we will answer all of your questions here, so please
contact us to discuss more of your particular needs.
What is your film style?
We film an artistic documentary style. Please view some demos of
our work here. Just to give you a bit of the "lingo", there are other styles out there like
strait cut and in-camera. Strait cut is when the raw, barely edited footage is given to the
couple and in-camera is a short "highlights" type of video.
The strait cut video is so boring, like a home movie. Unedited video, like most home movies,
will not be something you want to watch over and over (Read more about wedding video editing
here). Strait-cut is also the very easiest to deliver and can be given to you right after the
wedding ends. If we just filmed the wedding and delivered the raw footage, I could save 30-40
hours of editing work for each wedding, but customers would end up with a product that they
probably would not enjoy.
We offer a unique editing style: Artistic Documentary.
After the edit, we deliver fully-edited DVDs with chapter and menu selections.
Do you have demos?
We shoot between 40-50 weddings annually and we have lots of demos, click here.
Why should we video our wedding when we
already plan on having a photographer?
My wife and I had a wonderful photographer for our wedding. The pictures are beautiful.
However, we had a relative video the wedding and the quality was poor. So many times we have
wanted to watch our wedding and share it with friends who could not attend but we cannot.
You know, each time we film a wedding, I ask my wife to watch the completed DVD before I
send it to the couple to check for mistakes and etc. Each and every time she watches a
completed video she says, "I wish we had a professional wedding
video done for our wedding."
Also, I think it would be neat to be able to share it with our sons, and later, our
grandchildren. We now have children and we will never be able to fully explain the life,
emotions, excitement, joy, sights, sounds, and beauty of our wedding day to them. Video allows
you to hear the music, feel the love, and share the story. Video allows you to hear the
nervousness of the couple and capture a moment in time that simply cannot be relived.
Video brings life to all of the emotions of the day. Capturing a tear from a proud father or
silly movements of a ring bearer is not possible with still photography.
What kind of attire will you wear at our
wedding and will you blend in?
We wear all black attire which is specifically purposed to identify us as one of the
people working for you on your wedding day. We sort of try to blend in with the guests at your
wedding (as well as you can blend in while carrying a camera). If you are having a formal
wedding, traditionally the DJ, Band, and some of the caterers may wear a tux, but photographers
and videographers usually wear black only. You don't want us to look like the groomsmen.
How long will my edited video
be?
Generally, my finished work is between 30-45
minutes. It is usually longer for Catholic and Episcopal ceremonies.
We also have a photographer for our
wedding. Will you work well with them?
We have worked with many of the top photographers here in Denver and know them by
name. We have a great working relationship and will make sure not to be in each others' way.
There are some very important shots that we need during the day. We will coordinate those shots
with the photographer to deliver to you the best wedding video possible.
Also, my wife offers wedding photography as well. When we work together, you not only get a
discount for our services, but I have access to the wedding photos as well to create better
looking cases and DVD covers.
