FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Weddings:
How long will our video be?
The length of your film is determined by a variety of factors. The hours of coverage, if you purchase any of our add-ons, etc. Majority of our wedding films with a full day of coverage (10+ hours) range between 8-15 minutes. Each wedding day varies but the more hours of coverage, add-ons, and a full timeline, offers us more footage resulting in a longer wedding video.
Will we get a second shooter?
Yes! All of our weddings have two filmmakers (Emily & Lexi). This allows for us to be in two places at once to capture all of your special moments on your wedding day. For example, we are able to film both of you getting ready, your first looks from both angles, couple clips + guests at cocktail hour, speeches + reactions, and more opportunity to catch all the little moments that happen throughout the day. Most importantly, having two of us ensures that every moment and detail of your ceremony is captured. This also allows us to have a variety of close up + wide shots so you can fully envision your day as it happened. We strongly believe that hiring a team that works together consistently ensures your day runs seamlessly. We do not outsource any part of our creative process meaning we do all of the planning, filming, and editing ourselves. This guarantees that your wedding film will align with our previous work that led you to want to book with us. We want to establish a connection so you can trust us every step of the way.
How does payment work?
When you are ready to sign our contract, we require a 50% down payment to secure your wedding date. The remaining balance is due 48 hours before your wedding day.
What add-ons do you recommend?
In every wedding video, we include a large portion of the ceremony, vows, and speeches. We incorporate them throughout the video with a variety of visuals and audio. We highly recommend our full ceremony add-on if you would like to watch your ceremony from start to finish. You will have all the audio including the music you selected. This includes the song you walk down the aisle to as well as any music you have playing before, during, or after. You will also be able to hear your vows in their entirety if you read them during your ceremony. If you do your vows privately before or after the ceremony, we also have an add-on for this so you can still have your vows if they were not part of your ceremony. We also recommend our full first dances add-on if you would like to hear the songs you chose as you dance with your partner/parent. Our favorite add-on is incorporating home videos. If you have footage of you both from your childhood, it’s a beautiful and emotional touch to your wedding film.
Do you offer photography?
At this time we do not offer wedding photography. We limit ourselves to a select number of weddings each year so we can give our all to the couple’s we work with. We love creating wedding films for our couple’s and right now it just makes sense to put all of our focus into wedding videography. That being said, we do offer creative photography sessions outside of weddings so feel free to check that out here.
How and when will we receive our video?
Your final wedding film will be delivered to you by a downloadable link so you can save & share your film. We strive to complete your wedding video in a timely manner. You will receive your final film within 2-4 months.
Creative:
How long are the styled shoots?
Our styled shoots range from 2-6 hours! Our couple’s shoots typically are 2 hours with 2 location changes + 2 outfit changes. Our immersive story-based visuals/photoshoots tend to be longer to allow for multiple locations, outfits, and improvisation. (Some shoots may take place on two different days if locations are further apart)
How much does a session cost?
Our styled shoots do not have set pricing at this time. No two shoots are the same so we build custom priced packages based on a variety of factors. This includes location distance, hours of coverage, props, planning, and more.
Do I need to have an idea to book a shoot?
You do not have to come up with your own concept to book a shoot with us! We absolutely welcome all your ideas and input but it is not required. We will send you a questionnaire to better understand what you are looking for. We will plan and create a shoot that aligns with who you are and the story you want to tell.
