Q: What happens if we go over the contracted amount of time?

A: I understand that not everything goes as planned during a wedding. I never pack up before the contracted time, and moreover, I'm not leaving on the dot when the contracted time is up. Instead, I will ask you at the end of your contracted time whether or not you would like to extend. If you would like me to stay, I will charge the rates specified in your contract rounded to the closest 30-minute increment.

Wedding Videography Questions

 


Q: What should I expect from my wedding videographer?

A: A wedding videographer typically captures the entire day from getting ready to the reception, usually starting with the groom and bride’s preparations, the ceremony, photo session, and reception. As well as candid videography, we also include creative storytelling services to our wedding cinematography packages such as interviews, additional videographers, and utilizing cinematic techniques and editing.

 

Q: How much does an average wedding videographer cost?

A: Our wedding videography costs can vary depending on the services offered, the hours of coverage, and the number of videographers required. On average, our wedding videography prices range between $1250 and $3,000.

 

Q: How long will it take for the wedding video to be delivered?

A: The timeframe for delivery of a cinematic wedding video can vary depending on the complexity of the project and the workload of the videographer. Generally, most wedding films take anywhere from 2-4 weeks to be edited and delivered.

 

Q: What do I need to prepare before the wedding day?

A: Before the wedding day, couples should provide the wedding filmmaker with a list of requested shots, music selections, and a detailed timeline of the day’s events so that the videographer can plan the day accordingly and meet the couple’s expectations.

 

Q: Is drone footage included in the wedding video?

A: We offer drone wedding video footage as a service add-on by request. Be sure to inquire before booking your wedding so your videographer can plan accordingly.

Formals

Please have one of your bridesmaids or wedding planner get ALL of the people you want in your family portraits rounded up as soon as the ceremony is over. If we can keep everyone on task, family formals shouldn't take too long. Provide a list of family groupings for immediate family portraits.

Are there any additional groupings that you would like me to get?

Please have the wedding party gathered as soon as the ceremony is over so we can get these done as soon as family formals are over and we can get you to your reception.

I can not stress enough how important these images will be to you. Family and wedding party formals are important but these pictures are what the day is all about. I know your guests are going to complain and you will be hungry but please take my advice and let me get some amazing pictures of you and your new spouse. Thes, in my opinion, are the most important.

  • Is it worth having a photo booth at a wedding?
    Yes, having a photo booth at a wedding is worth it as it provides entertainment, encourages guest interaction, and creates lasting keepsakes. Both traditional and 360 booths offer unique ways to capture the celebration's joy and excitement.
  • How many pictures do you get from a photo booth?
    The number of pictures a photo booth can produce depends on the printer's output capacity. However, guests can usually take unlimited digital photos during the rental period, ensuring plenty of opportunities for capturing memories.
  • Are 360 photo booth rentals worth it?
    Yes, 360 photo booths are worth it because they offer a fun, unique and memorable experience for guests, capturing dynamic videos that traditional photo booths cannot. They also offer instant social media sharing capabilities, increasing the event's social reach.
  • How much do people charge for a 360 photo booth rental?
    The cost for renting a 360 photo booth varies depending on the location, event duration, and additional services offered, but prices typically range from $500 to $1500 per event. It's advisable to compare local providers for specific pricing and package details.
  • What does a 360 photo booth include?
    A 360 photo booth typically includes an operator, an app for capturing and share videos, business liability insurance, and props for guests to use. Optional additions like stanchions and enhanced lighting can further enhance the booth's appeal and functionality.
  • How many people can fit on a 360 photo booth?
    The number of people a 360 photo booth can accommodate depends on its size, with most setups comfortably fitting between 1 to 6 average-sized individuals. Ensure the booth you choose meets the needs of your event size.
  • Do you need a backdrop for a 360 photo booth?
    No, a backdrop is not strictly necessary for a 360 photo booth, but adding one can significantly enhance the visual appeal of the videos. Backdrops can provide thematic cohesion and additional branding opportunities for events.
  • What are some 360 photo booth ideas for corporate events?
    For corporate events, consider using branded props and backdrops to increase brand visibility. You can also encourage participants to share their 360 videos on social media with a specific event hashtag to enhance engagement and reach.
  • What are the disadvantages of a 360 photo booth?
    While there may be some challenges, such as the need for more space and potentially higher costs, these are easily outweighed by the fun and innovative experience they offer. Embrace the opportunity to create memorable moments that guests will talk about long after the event.
  • What equipment is needed for a 360 photo booth business?
    To start a 360 photo booth business, you'll need a sturdy and reliable platform, high-quality camera, supportive app software, and necessary lighting equipment. Additionally, props, a computer or tablet for operation, and reliable transport cases are essential.
  • How to share 360 booth photos with friends?
    360 booth photos and videos can be easily shared with friends by uploading them to social media platforms or messaging apps. You can also provide direct download links or QR codes for guests to access their captures instantly. iPhone users can share files directly using the airdrop feature.
  • Are mirror photo booths good for weddings?
    Yes, mirror photo booths are a great addition to weddings as they offer an interactive experience for guests. They combine the fun of traditional photo booths with the added flair of a touch screen mirror, allowing guests to customize their photos with drawings and signatures. They also provide high quality images by utilizing a hi-resolution DSLR camera.
