Having a First Look (as described below) taking place during this pre-ceremony coverage time?  It’s covered as well.

  • 7 1/2 hours on-site: if you don’t need some of these hours towards the end of your reception we can arrive even earlier to cover more of your Getting Ready instead.  Whichever you’d like to do.

Additional Wedding Videography Services

First Look

Before the wedding the bride and groom see each other and share an emotional exchange.  We capture this moment with at least three cameras and place a personal digital audio recorder on the groom for great sound.  Ask us about capturing this special moment.  If you choose Deluxe or Deluxe Plus+ we’ll be happy to include this moment in your package.

Highlight Reel

The best moments of your wedding day are showcased with music.  Let us know if you’re interested in this type of video and we’ll give you a quote to include it.  Quote will be dependent on running time you wish for your highlight reel to be.

Private Vows

This is a private moment before the ceremony where the couple gives personal promises and declarations to each other and express their love in a more intimate way

How We Met: Love Story

We ask you to set a day aside before your wedding date so we can capture separate interviews of each of you telling your side how you met the other.  We take this footage along with some we shoot of both of you enjoying being together and edit all of it to music.

Vow Renewal

Vow Renewal
After so many wonderful years together having your vow renewal ceremony captured on video is a very touching treasure for many more years to come.  Ask us about capturing this special time.
Included with these packages:
  • Editing with meticulous attention to detail.
  • Free travel expenses within a 50 mile radius of our office in Roanoke, Virginia.
  • Completed three wedding DVDs (Ceremony only package) and five DVDs (Basic to Deluxe Plus packages) and a HD USB flash drive and/or High Definition Blu ray discs (this format extra fee per disc applies).  Google Drive download also available.
  • Chapter stops, menus and music included on each disc.  You can jump right to your favorite parts of your event or watch your special day unfold from beginning to end!

Wedding Videography answers to questions you may have:

What do you require for us to book you?

We require half down retainer on your package at time of signing the contract.  Retainer fee is half of the selected package price.

We’d like to keep the raw footage of our day as well.  Can we have it?

Absolutely!  If you provide us with a hard drive we’ll be happy to give it to you when you receive the final DVDs and/or Blu rays from us.  Or, we can get one and you can reimburse us for it when we deliver your discs.

Why not just let a friend or relative shoot our wedding?

You can do that, but we have the professional video and sound equipment and expertise to capture your day the right way. With your day only happening once there’s no chance to go back and correct mistakes or oversights. After the event has been captured, the real work begins in post-production. Hour upon hour is spent crafting a professional wedding video. Hiring us allows your friend or family member to enjoy the festivities at your wedding, instead of being stuck behind the camera.

When should I schedule your services?

As soon as possible. To increase the chances of booking us on a particular day contact us as soon as possible. Waiting until the last minute may mean settling for videography some other way that may not be as good.

How many weddings have you captured?

We’ve been capturing weddings professionally for over 13 years so far.  We also captured a few for family and friends in the beginning as a gift.  We’re not sure of the actual count of weddings, but we can reassure you it’s quite numerous.

How professional is your video equipment?

We use Sony HD cameras, as well as 4K, all with low light capability, tripods, Tascam digital audio recorders and a Rhino brand slider.  For weddings we use six cameras and a digital audio recorder as back-up in case any of our digital audio recorders fails.  For receptions we use at least four cameras.  The slider allows us to achieve smooth, movie-style shots, which we use for the first dances.  For editing we use Davinci Resolve which is updated regularly.

How visible are you during the ceremony?

As little as possible. We dress in such a manner to blend in with everyone else. Prior to the start of the wedding our cameras are mounted on tripods and we stay right in place throughout the entire ceremony until the bride and groom have exited.

Do you set up extra lighting?

Additional lighting can be bulky, distracting and interfere with your special day. Instead, we use cameras with low light capability, thereby using the available natural light.

Will the bride, groom and wedding party have to pose for your shots?

Not at all! We remain unobtrusive as possible and capture the great moments as they happen, being very respectful of everyone.

Will everyone at my wedding be on the video?

We use some wide shots throughout the wedding and reception to capture the overall event.  Greetings from your family and guests are also captured with their permission.  If anyone doesn’t want to be on camera we respect their wishes.

How soon do you arrive?

For all packages we arrive at least an hour before the time of your event.

How far have you traveled?

We’ve traveled over two hour’s driving distance from our office to capture weddings. If we are requested to travel beyond the free 50 mile distance from our office we then charge for business mileage at the current rate, which is $.67/mile as of 2024.  Depending on how far the travel is we may need to also charge for an overnight hotel stay.  We have the right to deem how far we are willing to travel.

Contact us here and we look forward to working with you soon!
