Are you a commercial studio or a home-based business?
We are a business based out of the home for two reasons:
1. It keeps our cost down so we can keep our packages reasonable.
2. We feel it gives our business a warmer feeling than having it based in a office setting. On your special day, we want you to feel like your right at home with us!
What types, such as unedited footage or special effects, of videography do you offer?
Check out the site www.CrossingRiverWeddings.com
Describe any special editing services you offer:
Yes we do!
Do you have lighting equipment to accommodate a more dimly-lit event?
Our cameras work well in dim light situations, however, during the reception we almost always need to use our on-camera lights.
How many videographers do you work with?
It completely depends on what package you would like to have, some come with more than one videographer.
Does the client get to meet the videographers before the event?
Crossing River Weddings is individually owned by wedding filmmaker Doug Dibert, Jr. and when you book with Crossing River you get Doug! Some videographers over book for the sake of volume, we don't. Our focus is you and YOUR DAY!
Do you guarantee your presence at the actual event?
Yes! When you book Doug...you get Doug!
Do you book yourself for more than one event in a day? Weekend?
Nope! I focus on YOU! We don't do multiple bookings for the sake of volume.
Do you have a replacement videographer in case you become unavailable on the event day?
Yes, Doug will be the main videographer for each wedding except in the event of an emergency. In those cases a very professional replacement is found.
What kind of equipment do you typically bring with you on the day-of?
We use only high quality documentary filmmaking equipment. From cameras, to sounds, to lighting. Everything is high quality!
Do you bring backup equipment to the event in case of malfunction?
Yes, I do bring a backup camera.
What is your policy on taking breaks? If you require a meal break, do you require that the client provide your meal?
No breaks, only during the reception, while people are eating to we take a break.
Do you charge overtime?
No, when you book us you get us for the entire day.
Do you give access to your raw footage?
Yes, its your footage! If you want the raw footage, please be sure to request it.
Do you reserve the right to use the video in the future for promotions, contents, etc.?
Yes, I pride myself on the quality of my work and love to show it off!
Is the client involved in the editing process? If so, how much input does the client have in editing?
Yes, of course! You are in charge!
How long does it take for the client to get the final video?
Our turn around time is generally 3-5 months. We want to make sure special attention is given to the creation of your movie!
