With 14 years of experience in the video industry, Mike immediately fell in love with the energy and fast pace of shooting weddings. "You provide the story and we mold it into wedding films and videos," Mike says. A common misconception of videography is that it's just an expensive version of a home video. However, the truth is that the final product is really more of a movie when creatively produced. It's a creative and entertaining representation of the wedding day.
In fact, a recent bride and groom were so touched by Mike's representation of their day that they were both moved to tears right in his own office as they all viewed the video. And that's exactly the kind of thing that makes Mike so passionate about what he does. "The tears of joy that our work provides to our customers. The love that is captured in the special moments of the day and in the words that are said and recorded by us, is how we capture the emotions of a marriage. It's in the wishes passed down in the toasts, the special looks that are exchanged by the newlyweds, and the love of the family and friends of the bride and groom," he says.
Many brides let their budgets keep them from choosing videography, but Mike believes a video of your wedding day is invaluable. He advises against having your friends or family shoot your video; they are guests and they want to act like guests. Also, not every videographer is a creative shooter, which can make the difference in the way it is represented: "It's first about telling a great story and then finding the most appropriate way to execute it."
Owning a professional video of your wedding gives you the opportunity to relish those moments you never want to forget, and remember all of the details for a lifetime. Don't be someone who looks back and wishes she had; after all is said and done, a wedding viedo is something you will be happy to have.-CM
