When you're planning your special day, having the ability to revisit the occasion for years to come is a top priority. That's why so many couples decide on both still photography and a wedding video. As you reach out to videographers that specialize in event videos, here's a list of key questions to ask before hiring them. 

Top 4 Questions to Ask a Wedding Videographer

What is your shooting style?

Film is an artistic medium and videographers all have their own unique approach and style when it comes to wedding videos. Ask whether they are more cinematic and opt for music and beautiful imagery or if they prefer an organic, documentary-style approach with interviews and messages from guests sprinkled in. Always ask to see examples of previous work, mood boards, or visual representations that give you a better idea of their specialties.

How do you work with photographers?

Photographers and videographers will be working side-by-side to capture your wedding day. That being said, each professional will be looking for different things, as still photos require more group poses, and videos are meant to be more natural, capturing real-life moments. Talk to your videographer about how they'll approach this relationship to ensure they work together as a team. 

Are you familiar with the venue?

Having a sound understanding of your wedding venue is a major advantage. By knowing the space, the lighting, and nooks that are cinematic, your videographer will be able to put the camera in spaces that capture the true beauty of the event. If your videographer has yet to film at your venue, make sure they are willing to do a walk-through beforehand to plan their shot list. 

What will the crew look like?

When it comes to making wedding videos, you'll want to manage the overall footprint of the camera crew so your guests feel at ease and comfortable enjoying themselves. Ask your videographer about the size of the crew, how they set up, and what their best practices are in terms of generating content without being intrusive to the experience.
