How to pick your Perth wedding videographer?
I so often hear the same old story: “We have a great Wedding Photographer, therefore we do not see the need for a professional Wedding Videographer in Perth and my brother-in-law bought the most awesome video camera, so he will be covering our wedding”. How wrong could a bridal couple be? Videography is an art.
Wedding day
Yes, in today’s modern age, technology has made it easier for the man on the street to be able to do a recording for home use and quality would be good in good daylight, BUT it is the talent, skill, passion and years of experience that can bring out even the most basic camera’s true value; there is nothing more irritating to view than a hand held unsteady video with poor sound recording on your wedding DVD produced in Perth, unfortunately the DVD is guaranteed to land up in the bottom drawer.
Maybe you have a friend that got married last year and you thought her video was well produced, maybe you have a cousin that has a Sony Mini Camcorder and has taken some classes in college, maybe you are trying to cut down on costs, or maybe you just haven’t taken the time to really think about it that much, regardless of where you stand, take time to look around and ask professionals their opinions on videographers in the area. The video footage that is recorded on your day is going to be the ONLY tangible object besides your wedding photographs, which will move forward with you past that day. They are all you will have to look back on to remember and you want them to be able to tell a compelling and complete story and as beautiful as your wedding photos will be, a wedding video allows you to relive your wedding day in full moving colour, capturing all the emotions, love and warmth created within your day; by making sure you have someone doing this for you who has the ability and knowledge of how to capture all that your wedding day embraces, leaving you moved by your video every time you watch it, is one of the most important choices you can make for your wedding day and how the memories of your special day will be immortalised, therefore choosing a professional Wedding Videographer for your wedding video is truly one of the best & smartest decisions you could make and definitely well worth the investment towards your treasured memories, as your DVD of your beautiful day should speak to you and not merely record the story … but TELL the story and a professional Wedding Videographer who is passionate about their craft, will be able to do exactly this for you.

There are a lot of Wedding Videographers out there in Perth and many have true talent and have mastered the current techniques and equipment, but sad to say there are also many more out there just trying to get their foot in the door on a career that seems like fun. When it comes to a day as important as this one, you want a true professional that has true talent and experience, so they can handle a variety of situations, lighting conditions and timing obstacles, there is no replacement for experience, as being able to walk into any situation, adapt and shoot a great video clip without showing you the stress associated with getting the shot, is what a real professional will be capable of doing. Those that are not experienced can change the flow and momentum of your day that should be natural; the flow should be from the bride getting ready, to arriving at the church or venue, photo sessions, to the party and your guests, inexperienced videographers without proper training, spend all night under exposing and shooting poor video footage that is so unpleasant to view and unfortunately, more often than not, interrupting the intimacy of subtle moments with jumping in front of people trying to get a close up, not only causing uncomfortable moments on the day, but producing an end result in DVD form that isn’t something you would want to view more than once and this is definitely not the way you want the memories of your incredible day captured.

A videographer should be your best silent SNIPER, yes, sniper. You know they are there somewhere, but you may not even see them, as they blend in so well with your family and friends. We have had so many brides that called us after the wedding stating “We did not even know you were there … how did you manage to get such great footage without being seen?” Great videographers have the talent and ability to do this and the personal skills to entertain and keep on the good side of you and your guests, which is very important indeed, as they spend many hours with you on one of your most important but also most stressful days, therefore you want them to be someone you get along with and feel comfortable around.
Finding a good Perth based Wedding Videographer is an Art in itself, so hopefully our website has just helped point you in the right direction. Videography is our art!
