DISCOVER YOUR STYLE

If you aren't sure what videography style you want, take a moment to learn them. Styles are diverse, & should fit your personality like a glove! A videographer who works in any of the following styles will be able to cover the essential scenes of the wedding in their entirety. You'll probably know the right style when you see it:

Documentary-Style Format

Just as a documentary filmmaker films hours of footage and narrows it down, a short-form wedding videographer will cover the pre-ceremony, ceremony, and reception, then edit it into a video of up to an hour in length.

Straight-Cut Format

Produced with either minimal or no editing, this is the predominant style of wedding video. A straight-cut video running up to two hours in length is usually much less expensive than an extensively edited video and can often be ready just days after the wedding.

Moderately Edited Format

Somewhere between the documentary-style video & the straight-cut video is a third choice: the " in-camera" edit. The couple sets a time limit for the video the videographer first makes sure to shoot the events & moments the couple has requested, then he'll use the remaining time to capture whatever else seems appropriate.

Along with unabridged footage of the ceremony & other highlights of the day, wedding videos may also include photo montages set to music & special effects such as animation, slow motion, & the use of soft filters or black and white.
