As indicated in our packages, we have developed a variety of video services targeted specifically for weddings. Below you will find descriptions of the options offered in each of the packages above. You will find these descriptions helpful in selecting a wedding video package that meets your specific needs. Each option has been put in order as they would appear in your video as we have experienced this way to work the best. Of course nothing is set in stone, and you can alter this order as you desire before we edit!
Video Intro A nice lead-in to your video, set to a combination of soft-focus and sepia slow motion shots of your wedding location and any on site pre-ceremony footage we would shoot, all while credits of your wedding party are rolled across the screen... edited to the music of your choice, of course!
Rehearsal Coverage The night before your ceremony, we come out and capture some candid footage of your Ceremony Rehearsal and/or the following dinner and present some of that footage in a slow motion montage to the music of your choice in your video. This type of coverage acts as a great lead into the rest your video as it foreshadows things to come, much like a feature film. May also be good for toasts at dinner or presenting your Photo to Video Montage if you opt not to show it at your Reception:)
Love Story A personal and intimate video segment that allows the bride and groom to share thoughts about each other, how they met, what they're looking forward to and so on. Optionally, I'll have you each write a letter to one another expressing your feelings for your better half, the contents of which read by you for the video only (talk about a tear jerker) to cap off each individual segment of the shoot! Typically shot in a park-like or modern city setting before the wedding (As seen on "A Wedding Story"). Typically about 20-30 minutes long, this acts as a wonderful introduction to your video and can be displayed with your montage at your Rehearsal Dinner or Reception!
Photo-to-Video Montage (80-100 images) This has become an extremely popular option! We take photos of the bride and groom, though the years, and convert them to video with transitions and the music of your choice. Also included in your video as part of the introduction, we can also provide a large screen projection system or an iMac video feed to present the montage at your Rehearsal Dinner or Reception...a great way to break the ice between two families just getting to know each other!
Mini Montage (40 images) This montage is a 'mini', one song in length, version of our full scale Photo-to-Video Montage. A popular alternative to those that really want a montage, but may not have a huge amount of picture. the Mini Photo Montage acts as a nice lead-in to the entire video with blended pictures of the couple and their famalies through the years leading up to the big day! We can also use pictures from your Honeymoon to recap your experiences there!
Pre-Ceremony Coverage A behind-the-scenes look at the bride getting ready before the ceremony at her home, a hotel or at the venue. We spend some time with the Bride and her Bridesmaids getting prepared to capture some of those special moments for your video in slow motion cut to the music of your choice. Also a good option to capture any formal photo shoots that have become more popular before the ceremony.
Ceremony Coverage Two camera coverage at the church or wedding location of Ceremony and Post-Ceremony activity such as Receiving Lines and Formal Photo Shoots. We show up about one hour before your starting time to get set up and coordinate our shoot with your photographer and whoever's in charge at the facility. We also get some behind the scenes shots of the bridal party and guests prior to the procession and some 'staging' shots of the facility indoors and out for use in your video intro. During the actual Ceremony itself, we begin with a camera angle of the wedding party coming down the aisle from the grooms vantage point. Once the bride gets halfway down the aisle we move that camera off to a side vantage point, while another camera catches all the action from a centered location at the back of the facility. From there, you'll have two camera coverage with several vantage points so virtually nothing gets missed! Of course our clients can also direct how they would like the shooting to go, and we have Wireless Microphones available to clearly pick up your vows!
Reception Coverage w/ Introduction We capture all the important moments from your Reception like your Introductions, Cake Cutting, Toasts, all the important Dances, Garter and Bouquet Toss and anything else of importance including general shots of you and your guests having a good time! In addition, we capture the beauty of your Reception Location in the form of a slow motion montage introduction that acts as a wonderful lead-in to the Reception footage.
Formal Photo Video Montage/Highlights All packages comes with this feature. We'll sit in on your formal photo shoot following your Ceremony and turn it into a lovely video montage. A great way to 'wind down' from Reception coverage and lead into the Spotlight Video recap at the end of your video.
Spotlight Video The Spotlight Video acts as the grand finale in your video! Once the Highlight Montage is completed and everyone thinks the video is done, they are surprised with a video run-down of the days events edited to the beat of the music of your choice full of color, sepia, slow motion, real-time, wide screen, full screen soft focus shots of all of the days events! Words do not describe this option as does seeing it for yourself. Please check out the sample of this very popular feature to the left or view the many found on The Spotlight page. An absolute beautiful wrap-up to your wedding video!
Highlight Montage The Highlight Montage captures all the most special moments of the day edited to a music selection of your choice. We'll take stills from your video footage or use photo's your professional photographer that you would provide (leaving credit for that company in your video). Much like the Photo-to-Video Montage except still images of the days events are used instead of growing up pictures. We present all of those special moments captured in time as a 'Day in Rewind', if you will, starting with stills from your reception and ending with still shots of your ceremony. This option is an add-on
Raw Footage We usually wind up using about 90% of the footage we shoot in the finished product. However, most of the Pre Ceremony footage, your Formal Photo shoots and some other clips are all set to slow motion or in sepia in your video. So, with our upper end packages that come on two DVD's, we squeeze in bonus un-cut material for your viewing pleasure so you can re-live your big day in real-time! We also include an 'alternate' Spotlight video, one that is all black and white and set to instrumental music as a bonus. Available as an add-on to the Bronze and Silver packages
Ultimate Add-On You want the works? You got it! With all of the options included in our packages, the Ultimate Add-On takes filming a step further. This add-on includes: 2 or 3 videographers for the entire day of shooting (depending on individual needs) and complete non-stop coverage of all events from start to finish using multiple cameras. This would all then be culminted onto 'Mega-DVD' sets including every minute of footage taken broken down into chapters. For example, in one of our Premiere Packages, your Pre Ceremony footage would appear in your video as a video montage of that event (as seen in our Pre Ceremomy sample video clip). With this add-on, not only would you get that video montage, but a secondary camera will be set up or manned to film every minute of Pre Ceremony activities which would then be delivered as real-time video on additional DVD disks! The same would then be done for all following events through the Reception to compliment your Premiere Video Package.

Additional charges, if necessary:
Fuel Surcharge (outside of the Baltimore metro area): $40
Hotel Surcharge (Sometimes necessary for early morning event coverage): $140
Hotel Surcharges are to assure on-time filming by sleeping over near your event location (usually only for early weddings). This charge is assessed for most events not local to the Baltimore Metro area (south, west and east of DC- extreme eastern shore of MD or Deleware- north of MD/PA line) where filming is to begin before noon. This would cover hotel costs for our staff who would spend the night before your Ceremony somewhere nearby to assure nothing is missed due to traffic or travel related problems.
Extra Digital DVD burns: $30.00 with case and custom insert ($40 for double disks)
Extra Blu-Ray DVD burns: $60.00 with case and custom insert ($80 for double disks)
