Your Fairytale on Film
In a world of social media and online sharing, it makes sense to have your day captured- not just for you to enjoy, but to share with others. Wedding photography and videography have been around as long as cameras have. Now more than ever, couples have friends and family spread across the world who may not all be able to make it to the big day in person. Thanks to technological advances, this doesn’t exclude them from celebrating with you.
With media sharing and live streaming, everyone can be a part of the day. This does raise the question though- are photographers and videographers created equal when it comes to their ability to help you to relive your day?
Short answer… there is none. Photography captures the detail in a single moment whereas videography tells the whole story. For a truly immersive experience, a wedding video is usually the crowning glory.
The Best of Both Worlds?
Videography services can run on the pricey side, especially if you’re having a photographer too. If you’re keen on having the two- there are some ways to have your (wedding) cake and eat it too. With smart budgeting and good planning, you can have a win-win. There is a rake of vendors and businesses in
North West England who specialise in these visual arts. Some may even offer both. It’s important to check out your options and see what packages they offer, you never know where you’ll find the right one for you. Look at timing- you may not necessarily need the entire day in both photo
and video. Plan for the bits you want, this could be a few hours of a videographer to catch your vows, and maybe a first dance and a toast, and a photographer for the rest.
