Price Guide

We will have discussed in our pre-production chat when coverage is to begin. We will typically show up well before that (30-60 minutes prior) so that we are not rushed in setting up our cinematic tools and introducing ourselves to the couple in person.

If the location allows drones to be flown, we will not charge extra for all packages except for the small/ short wedding options (drone is extra for this packages). If this is important to you client, we need to make sure we have at least 10 unimpeded minutes with them (the photographer hangs back and would need to use a long lens during that time). If drone is important to the couple. please build in about 10 minutes of dedicated drone time into the timeline during the romantic session.

We can promise you we will do everything we can within our power to make every part of your experience with us and your wedding videos everything you dreamed. We also need you to understand that this is event filmmaking, there are no re-dos, and our team’s focus on filming for the creative edit(s)  to make sure those are the most amazing and inspiring they can be.  That means the documentary edits (ceremony and reception edit for example) come secondary to the creative edits in our minds.

If your mindset is that the documentary edits are of equal importance to the creative edits, or if you are just wanting to hire us primarily for the documentary aspect and not our storytelling capabilities, then we need to be fully informed. In any case it would be a good idea to talk to us about your expectations for the final product and what is most important to you and your families so that we are on the same page and can plan accordingly.

Great question. We go through a rigorous process to understand our client’s likes and dislikes. First things first: we WILL NOT use music if we cannot attain the proper licensing. We believe each wedding film is unique and we attempt to keep our musical choices fresh while considering each couple’s style. If there’s a song you love that MUST be in the film, we’re happy to take a listen. We’ll incorporate it as long as we don’t foresee an interference with the editing process and the finished story, AND as long as it fits within our budget for licensing music. If you are able to work out a license agreement with the particular artist, that’s something we’ll consider as well. Some sites we use for music include Musicbed, and Song Freedom.

This varies depending on the volume in our post production queue. Roughly speaking, we take anywhere from 6-12 weeks after your wedding date.

Some couples have a reception or a gathering planned at home and would like to have the film earlier. To jump the edit to the front of the queue and have it finished within 1-2 weeks, we charge a rush fee. Please inquire about that.

We have listened to our clients, and the vast majority has stated that they prefer the downloadable files, as opposed to a DVD (low resolution only), BluRay (not many people jumped onboard) or USB drives (frequent PC/ Mac formatting issues). We create your own personal private viewing and download page where you can download your files and view them as well.

Yes, and yes. Our producers and editors are very good at their jobs, and we are pretty meticulous when it comes to delivering an impactful story to each and every couple who hires us. We are also very diligent about making sure the film hits all the important points we’ve discussed over the process of getting to know each other, down to the smallest of details. You will get the opportunity to request changes to your creative edit(s). We offer you 1 hour of revision time at no charge, which typically takes care of any feedback like “can you replace this shot… put more of this person in… take out this person…”  Beyond that we are more than happy to continue making revisions, and we will work out a cost estimate with you before we continue.
