Questions
How long does the wedding film editing process take?
Typically 2-3 weeks, extending to 6 weeks during peak season (July-September). Urgent requests can be completed within a week if schedule permits.
Do you use multiple camera operators?
No, I work solo with a second fixed camera during ceremonies and speeches. This approach maintains discretion while achieving multi-angle coverage through strategic positioning.
Can we select our own background music?
Yes, clients may choose specific tracks, suggest musical styles, or delegate selection entirely. Any disliked tracks can be changed during the review process.
How do you handle low-light filming conditions?
Using high-sensitivity cameras that perform well in dim lighting. Employ discreet lighting equipment only when necessary, typically during evening receptions alongside existing disco lighting.
What audio equipment do you use?
Professional-grade wireless and wired microphones, including lapel mics for vows. Separate audio recording ensures clear dialogue capture, with backup systems for redundancy during key moments.
What formats do you offer for final delivery?
Options include USB drives, DVDs, and Blu-ray discs. Digital files are provided in universally compatible formats, with guidance available for playback on modern devices.
