Noreen & Alan's Special Day

Friday the 22nd of May 2009 one of the finest and warmest days so far this year. It was the wedding of Noreen & Alan and the Child of Prague had done the business. I started out at Noreen's house where I got a warm and hearty welcome. Then it was off to the church in Kanturk where I caught up with Alan. The ceremony went off without a hitch and from there we went to Kanturk Castle for photos. Their reception was at the Carlton Hotel in Kinsale followed by dancing to the early hours. Here is the highlights of their special day !!

The Right Wedding Videographer


Hi all,

I was on the net today and found the following article on choosing the correct videographer and taught it may be of some interest to you. Hope you enjoy the 

Declan

Getting The Right Wedding Videographer

The beauty of video is that it is able to capture the whole day, from the small intimate details to the broadest spectrum of emotions. Improvements in technology, smaller cameras and the need for less artificial light can allow the right videographer to capture the day's events without actually being a part of it. In addition to being a precious keepsake of your wedding day, your wedding video is a great way to capture moments you may otherwise miss.

When considering a videographer, select the package that highlights the events that are most important to you.

When viewing a videographer's work, you will become aware of the many intangibles that become subjective through the eyepiece of the camera and in the mind of the videographer director/editor. You will instinctively know when a particular videographer's emotional style clicks with your own.

Tips for Selecting a Videographer

Look for a videographer who is experienced, creative and artistic.

When viewing examples of work, look at the clarity and quality of the video, the composition, as well as the details of shooting and editing.

Questions To Ask Your Videographer

  • What type of lighting will the videographer use?
  • Do you have sample videos I can see?
  • How long have you been in business?
  • What packages do you offer?
  • Do you use Professional Quality equipment, accessories and supplies?
  • How many cameras do you use?
  • Do you have back-up equipment that is comparable in quality to the original?
  • Do you use wireless microphones?
  • Do you offer Non-Linear Digital Editing?
  • Do you copy-protect or scramble the videotape?
  • What are your guarantees and liabilities?
  • Do you have a written contract?
  • Are you unobtrusive?
  • Will the shoot interfere with the proceedings in any way?
  • How much do you charge for additional hours beyond the agreed contract?
  • Do you work with the photographer to ensure mutual cooperation?
  • Will you go to a location (like the beach or a park) without additional charge?
  • How much are additional copies of the wedding tapes?
  • Do you have references that I can call?

A Professional Wedding Video isn't expensive, it's Priceless!
