Wedding Videos Tips For The Beginner

By Adriana Noton


For the beginning person starting out doing wedding videos you absolutely have to practice every day taping, learning all your cameras functions and using it with a unshaken hand. You should do these practice sessions about two to three months ahead of the planned wedding date.Keep your hands as steady as possible when panning the camera, moving it around and holding it still.

It is a great idea to visit and get familiar with the places where the wedding is to be held and the reception afterwards. Get ideas for places you will be able to stand and get the prime shots of the ceremony, party, reception and more.

Be sure to stay away from noisy equipment such as vending machines, air conditioners or anything else that may make noise in the background. Keep out of the photographers way. You will want to capture the best moments of the bride and the grooms day. These include the anticipated guests waiting for the lovely bride to come down the aisle for their first glimpse of her.

Get video of all the bride's maids and other wedding party people as they descend down the aisle also. Make sure to capture the father giving the bride to her beloved and the complete ceremony from start to finish.

Video the happy new husband and wife as they are introduced to the wedding guests at the altar and the the brisk run down the aisle in a flutter of rice or bird seed. If they are leaving to go to the reception in a car then get video of that driving off.

The happy couple cutting the cake and feeding it to one another, the couples toast to each other, throwing of the bridal bouquet and close up of who catches it as well as the groom taking off his new brides garter.

Ask close family and friends to make a statement or comment to the happy couple on this most special of days. They can look back on these in the future with fondness and love.

Add in the bride and grooms favorite tunes and they will enjoy these moments for years down the road. Be sure to take as much video as possible of all the happenings you never know when something impromptu may happen.

You may also need equipment for lighting especially if filming indoors. This helps the video quality be even higher and video be more accurate as well as give you the perfect exposure.

If sound of the couple saying their vows is an issue then place a tie microphone onto the grooms tie itself. This allows all the words they say to one another in love to be heard clearly and concisely without background interference.

For best results put together a compiled lists of special video request the bride and the groom have for family members and friends they want incorporated into the Toronto wedding videos.
