We are a home based business located in Downtown Rochester, MI.
What types, such as unedited footage or special effects, of videography do you offer?
We shoot every wedding with multiple cameras; usually 3 at the ceremony and 2 at the reception. We don't have many request for the unedited footage because we include the full ceremony in all our packages.
Describe any special editing services you offer:
We are now editing in HD for those who want Blu-ray disc.
Do you have lighting equipment to accommodate a more dimly-lit event?
We have to use lights at 99% of the receptions. The quality of the video is almost entirely dependent on having enough light for the cameras.
How many videographers do you work with?
I currently work with two assistants or "second shooters".
Does the client get to meet the videographers before the event?
We almost always meet with the bride before the wedding. The only exception is when the couple is from out of town.
Do you guarantee your presence at the actual event?
Unless there is an emergency with myself of my family I will be at the actual event.
Do you book yourself for more than one event in a day? Weekend?
No, I don't double book days.
Do you have a replacement videographer in case you become unavailable on the event day?
I am networked with over 10 local videographers who I trust to step in an shoot in case I become unavailable.
What kind of equipment do you typically bring with you on the day-of?
We usually bring 3 HD cameras, tripods, monopod, glidecam, wireless mics, and on-camera lighting.
Do you bring backup equipment to the event in case of malfunction?
Yes, we have a backup camera and wireless mic kit in case of malfunction
What is your policy on taking breaks? If you require a meal break, do you require that the client provide your meal?
The only "break" is when we eat dinner.
Do you charge overtime?
Yes, if the coverage time is getting close and more still needs to be shot we ask the bride and groom if they want us to stay additional time.
Do you give access to your raw footage?
Yes
Do you reserve the right to use the video in the future for promotions, contents, etc.?
We hold full copyright to each wedding video production. We use portions of weddings for marketing purposes, but we don't distribute a full wedding DVD.
Is the client involved in the editing process? If so, how much input does the client have in editing?
The bride and groom are not involved in the editing process after the wedding. Before each couple signs they have access to a lot of our samples so they know the style and quality of work we will deliver. We do invite the couple to make suggestions before the wedding day if they have any special shots in mind... that is always fun.
How long does it take for the client to get the final video?
For the 2009 season our expected production timeline is 4-6 months.
