a video you are able to see, enjoy and relive so many of the
things you missed during the ceremony. Many of the events you

essentials;
Careful
planning

will need to discuss in detail your requirements for the day
What is the imagery you expect?

the ceremony. You may have to seek permission from the minister

of the coverage can be left to spontaneous shots on the day
A
professional cameraman experienced in weddings

the videographer with the same care as you choose the
stills photographer

to see samples of their work
-
Look for an edited, sharp picture complete with titles,
good sound and music.

who will work in conjunction with and complement the work

or Betacam.
