Wedding Questionnaire
I want your wedding video to be as incredible as you. Here are some suggestions for you:
Don't rush your first kiss! However don’t feel like you have to do ten minutes one either, but at least 5 seconds of kissing should be enough to have a chance to capture the moment properly!
Try not to rush your first dance if possible either. It’s about you both and I want to capture that moment flawlessly. If you're a little awkward, you don't have to dance alone forever, just a minimum of one minute is fine.
To shoot a private couple portrait session, I will need at least 15-30 minutes of your time alone to take a walk. This allows you to take a little time to yourself after getting married and can be taken at any point during the day.
Have a think about the lighting for your first dance when talking with your DJ. It's entirely your choice as to how you arrange it, but in my experience, if the DJ puts coloured/flashing disco lights on during the first dance, this can often lower the aesthetic quality of a photograph - because your faces and bodies will be flecked with random colours. I suggest to many couples that they ask the DJ to turn off all coloured/patterned lights until after the first dance is over. Also, lasers can damage our cameras, so please let them be aware to not use lasers for the first hour.
Don't be afraid to smile and talk to each other when you are being videoed. Don't feel that you constantly have to stare at the camera; I want you to create memories - not awkward photos!
Also,
If you would like video clips of your wedding invitations, please remember to bring them to your prep - or along on the day.
If there is anything that is a "Must have", please include it in the shot list box!
If anything changes, please don't panic - just feel free to send me a quick email telling me about it if you have the time! You can alternately submit another revised questionnaire! The most important thing is that you let me know if your address, email address or phone number changes between now and your wedding!
By filling out this questionnaire you are stating that you have provided me with complete, accurate details about your wedding day. Please ensure that all information is correct.
Thank you so much for taking the time to complete this questionnaire! I know it’s a lot of information all in one place and that is a lot of hard work. Getting detailed and accurate information about your day enables me to achieve the best results possible - Big thanks!
I can’t wait to capture your day! - Charlie
