How many cameras/ angles do you use? We use a 3 camera set-up for your ceremony and 2-3 throughout the day, all 4K.
How do you record our vows? We clip a small microphone on the groom that will capture the ceremony audio. If possible, we will also plug a recorder directly into the venues sound system.
How do you capture toasts/ speeches at our reception? We plug a recorder directly into your DJ's soundboard. If your DJ does not have a audio output available we use a series of camera audio and shotgun microphones. Have you ever been at a wedding where the DJ's microphones picks up tons of static or just straight up cuts out? We have too! And it is not good for video production. Confirming that your DJ has reliable equipment will give your wedding video the best possible audio.
