Should I Hire a Videographer for My Wedding or First Look?

Wondering if you should hire a videographer for your wedding or first look? If your wedding budget has wiggle room, we say go for it! The difference between a photographer and a videographer is huge. Photos capture an emotion, but videos show emotion with movement and sound, creating the perfect time capsule of your memory in video form. We’ve compiled a list of reasons why we think a videographer is a must.

Captures The Emotions Of The Day

Photos are beautiful but watching a powerful video with movement and sound can bring real emotion.  A professional videographer knows where to be to capture the essence of the day and all the raw emotions. While you are busy in the moment at your first look or wedding day, your videographer is capturing all the angles and emotions that go with it. Creating a perfect time capsule of your memory to hold onto forever.

You Won’t See Everything On Your Wedding Day But Your Video Will

Professional videographers are everywhere during your wedding day.  While you are busy enjoying your wedding day and taking photos or dancing, your videographer is making the rounds to capture every inch of your wedding.  From the flower girls, to your grandparents dancing, to your friends expressing love for you, to all the beautiful details that go into a wedding.  It all gets captured and is pieced together beautifully.

Watch Your Wedding Day Over And Over Again

By hiring a videographer you are ensured that you’ll have access to your wedding day forever. You’ll get to relive your wedding day over and over again, watching and being reminded of the vows you made on that special day. You’ll see friendly faces, beautiful venue details, and memorable moments of your wedding day that you can cherish forever.

Share Your Wedding Day With Absent Friends

Although we all hope to be at our friend’s weddings, sometimes life gets in the way.  Having a videographer at your wedding allows you to share your wedding day with everyone that couldn’t make it. This also includes your future kids. Having access to a video of your wedding can be a special keepsake.

Whether you’re having the wedding of the year or an intimate gathering, a videographer will capture those raw emotions and create a beautiful work of art to watch over and over again. We hope these tips help you on your way to planning your special day.
