FAQs – Frequently Asked Questions
How do you film on the wedding day?
Our approach is calm and unobtrusive. We stay behind the scenes, letting real emotions unfold naturally. Throughout the day we focus on genuine interactions, laughter, and atmosphere. The result is a cinematic wedding film that feels authentic, filled with moments you’ll want to watch and relive for years.
Super 8 or Digital — What’s the difference?
Super 8 carries a vintage, nostalgic feel with warm tones and a raw, timeless aesthetic. Digital is sharp, vibrant, and modern, with flexibility for creative edits. Many couples choose to blend both — mixing the character of film with the clarity of digital — for a result that feels like the best of both worlds.
Can we customize our wedding package?
Yes. Every couple has a different vision, so we design packages to match your needs. You can add hours, include Super 8, or request tailored edits. We’ll work closely with you to ensure the style, rhythm, and final story reflect who you are as a couple. Your video won’t look generic — it will feel personal and unforgettable.
How far ahead should we book your team?
We recommend securing your date 6–12 months in advance, especially for spring and fall when demand is high. If your wedding is sooner, reach out anyway — we’ll do everything we can to accommodate. Booking early ensures more options, smoother planning, and peace of mind.
Do we get to pick the music for film
We license music that enhances the storytelling and mood of your day. If you share favorite genres or songs, we’ll suggest soundtracks that complement them. The right music elevates the visuals without overwhelming them, creating a seamless experience that reflects the feeling of your celebration.
Do you film destination weddings as well?
Yes, we do. Whether it’s a beach ceremony in California, a vineyard in Europe, or a mountaintop elopement abroad, we love traveling to tell your story. Destination weddings let us capture new landscapes and weave them into your film, turning your journey into part of the narrative.
