You might assume that hiring a professional wedding videographer is out of your price range, but there are several economical options.
A wedding video is a worthwhile investment that can be seen repeatedly. Having a videographer at your wedding allows you to relive your trip down the aisle, capture moments you may have missed the first time, and share the best man's fantastic speech with those who couldn't make it.
The decision of who will film your wedding might be stressful. To save you time, here are 6 of the important questions you should have for your wedding videographer before making a reservation:
1. Have you used my venue?
Each venue's layout varies. You don't want the videographer to wing it. A videographer that has documented your venue will know the greatest first look and open spots. They shouldn't be disqualified because they haven't filmed there before. They can explore or investigate your wedding venue online.
2. Do you know my religious rituals?
This is a key wedding videographer question. A videographer's experience with western weddings won't compare to yours. Hindu, Jewish, and other culturally specific weddings demand style and sensitivity.
3. Is your style airy, dark, or something in between?
This should be clear from their sample videos. However, they may have more than one style. If you expect a certain aesthetic, know their method.
4. Do you observe or participate?
Many videographers are discreet. You might want it. Videographers who care about inconveniencing you will get less compelling footage. For a gripping emotional story, the camera team must come near. They'll position you in a flattering light. They'll get multiple angles. If they can get a better shot, you'll redo things. Good goodness, they're not invisible!
5. Are you licensed and insured?
This may be the most crucial wedding videographer question. Wedding providers usually need liability insurance. You want to ensure that all parties are insured for damage and/or injuries if an accident occurs.
