DIY Wedding Videography – Abby & Scott
The one where you DIY.
When it comes to capturing the magic of your wedding day, DIY wedding videography has gained popularity as an innovative and budget-friendly option. By providing guests of your choosing with cameras and microphones, you not only encourage them to become part of your special day, but you also end up with a heartfelt, multi-perspective wedding video that's truly unique.
One of the most significant advantages of DIY wedding videography, aside from the obvious cost savings, is the opportunity to actively involve your guests. Having friends and family film the day from their unique perspectives adds a personal touch that's hard to replicate. Whether it's a heartwarming toast from your best friend or an impromptu dance-off captured on camera, these candid moments are invaluable and can't be scripted.
The most important aspect of DIY wedding videography is concise communication with me, your videography planner from afar, to ensure we have a plan in place for you and your soon-to-be videographers. Making sure they understand how to operate the cameras and microphones – their abilities and limitations – and getting them prepared for what to capture – the moments, the angles, and the details – creates a streamlined process that will lead to those moments you’ll cherish as memories forever.
How does it all work? It’s simple, really. We’ll chat about your wedding day, from the theme to the itinerary, and decide what equipment you’ll need to capture those important moments. I’ll create a shot list based on your itinerary, as well as some instructions and samples, for you to share with the family and/or friends filming on your wedding day. I ship the equipment to you, they record those magical memories, and you ship everything back to me so the editing process begins.
That’s it!
If you know you want a wedding film but the budget is tight, reach out about DIY wedding videography and we’ll come up with a proposal just for you.
DIY wedding videography is a wonderful way to create a unique and heartfelt wedding video that captures the love and joy of your wedding day.
