Two’s Company : How To Choose Your Wedding Videographer And Photographer

Sydney-Wedding-Photography

Thinking about hiring a photographer and videographer for your wedding, but not sure you need both? Don’t worry – this is a common dilemma for couples planning their wedding, especially when there’s a budget involved!

You spend months, sometimes even years, preparing for this day and it will fly past in what seems like seconds. There’s no doubt photographs will immortalise your wedding. You can frame your favourite wedding photos to adorn the walls of your home (and those of your loved one!). But even the best quality photos can’t capture the real highlights of your day, such as your wedding vows, the speeches and your best moves on the dance floor. (Okay, something you want to forget too, but they can be edited!)

So if you want to relive your special day and watch all those moments you missed, you need both Sydney wedding videography and photography.

How do I choose my photographer and videographer?

It’s important that your photographer and videographer get along. That doesn’t mean they’ll spend the day holding hands and whispering in the corner, but they’ll need to know how to complement each other’s shooting skills. They need the kind of chemistry that will give you the best wedding videography Sydney has to offer.

One guaranteed way to make sure they know how to work together is to hire a photographer and videographer from the same studio. You can then be confident they’ve worked together and respect each other’s need to capture key shots. And whilst the photographer may concentrate on the must-take photos of people and moments, the Sydney wedding videographer will know how to capture things the photos will miss.

Before you choose your photographer and videographer, it’s worth meeting them together. You’re going to be spending quite some time with them in close proximity, so you’ll want to feel comfortable in their presence.

Ask to look at a number of their wedding portfolios, which include both Sydney wedding videography and photography, to see how the photos and video bring out the true story of the wedding day. Make sure you are happy with the approach and any special effects that are used. This is also your time to ask questions about what they will capture during the day as natural documentary shots, and their suggestions for special ‘bride and groom’ shots. Don’t be shy – this is what they’re here for.
