FAQs

Below is a selection of questions we are commonly asked. If your question is not listed here please contact us.

Can we see some samples of your work?

Can we see some samples of work?

There are some samples of our work available on this website. You are welcome to visit us to discuss your day and we can show you further examples of our work.

How long does it take before we receive our DVD?

We are a boutique wedding video business - not a mass production studio. Each DVD is distinctly different so that it reflects each couple and their wedding. Be assured that we will make every effort to finish your DVD as soon as we are able without compromising on quality.

Is the edited DVD exactly 30 minutes?

This is just an approximate length. Each wedding is unique, which means that the length of your DVD depends on what actually happens on the day. Our aim is to get a good representation of what your day was all about - whether this takes 29 minutes to tell or 45 minutes.

Is the whole DVD set to music?

Only the preparations, photo shoot, guest and dance segments are set to music where original audio is not a necessity - and where appropriate we will remix in a comment or two captured during filming. Audio is carefully captured during the ceremony and speeches - these are after all essential elements!

Can we choose our own music?

Of course you can - it is after all your day! We will discuss your choice of music with you when we meet. Mostly the music used on the day will be incorporated into your DVD, unless you wish to have something different. If you prefer us to choose we can include appropriate music based on your personalities and the atmosphere of the day.

Do you use lights during the ceremony?

We pride ourselves on being as unobtrusive as possible. This means that we do not use extra lighting. If your photographer can take a photograph then we will have enough light available to operate our video cameras.

Do we need to provide you with a meal at the reception?

You do not need to worry about us - we tend to look after ourselves, although we won’t say no to a nice meal either!

FAQs continued...

Why should we have a videographer when we already have a photographer?

A photographer captures a moment in time - a good videographer will capture the movement and sound, therefore portraying the emotions, feelings and atmosphere of your day. Using a professional also allows your guests to enjoy your celebration unhindered.

Do you do photographs as well?

NOOOOOO!! We specialise in producing video. We have tried and found that it is impossible to look down the lens of a still camera and a video camera at the same time.

Do you only work with particular photographers?

We work with a variety of photographers and will work with whomever you have chosen. Obviously if you like them and their work and that is all that is important to us!

Why should we book you over another videographer?

Because you like the quality of our work. You should choose a videographer based on their skills, style and personality - after all a videographer will be around for most of the day at your wedding.

How does the booking process work?

When you first contact us let us know your date and we will advise you if the date is still available. Be aware that we work on a first booked in, first served basis whereby a booking is confirmed with a deposit. We will only take one booking per day as it is important to us that our customers have our full attention and without time constraints.

How much deposit do you require?

A deposit of $200 will secure your booking.

What type of equipment do you use?

Our cameras are professional 3 CCD cameras and therefore produce a higher quality image than a home handycam, and are operated by people who have years of experience in filming weddings. Along with this we use a professional microphone system during the ceremony and reception to ensure the sound is as good as possible. Back in the office everything is edited using professional software. All our equipment is upgraded as new technology becomes available so that your DVD is the best possible.
