Search for the hot, best selling, unique wedding accessories by putting the keyword of your choice in our customized search box below.
- Ask to see samples of video footage from other weddings.
- Check their credentials. Who will be doing the actual taping? How many years have they worked in the business? Do they know details about lighting? Ask for references if you feel they would help you make your decision.
- Inquire about their equipment. Look for a video pro who uses an S-VHS camera, a Beta SP camera or a single-chip Hi-8 camera that combines professional controls with lower light capabilities.
- Discuss if you would like to add computer-generated animation to the final version. Ask to see examples of what the videographer has to offer.
- Judge from the previous work of the professional if they have the ability to capture the natural expressions of the guests and unique moments of your wedding day ceremony?
- Do you like the professional as a person? Do you feel confident that you will get a quality product in the end?
- Prepare a contract that includes a description of the coverage location; the date and times of production; the names of the specific individuals who will be doing the taping; a technical description of what will be done, such as multi-camera use and editing; how much you will pay and when; responsibility for the materials if lost or destroyed; the approximate finished length; and the final completion date.
- Get the phone number of the videographer (including cell number).
Once this is finalized, concentrate on other aspects of the wedding day, because you have selected a professional videographer
