What should I look for in a wedding videographer in chattanooga?

Story

There should be a story. When you look through a videographer’s portfolio you should enjoy their work even when you don’t know the couple.

Audio

Audio is the number one differentiator from amateur to professional. Bad picture can be forgiven, but bad audio makes the story difficult to follow.

Style and Color

Videographers are like any artist creating art, it’s all different. So it’s important to make sure their style aligns with your wedding vision, to actually like their style enough that 20 years from now you will still like it. Another thing to consider is does their coloring of their video go with your wedding photography? Will it look like it was the same day? Are their skintones green in their editing?

How much should a good wedding videographer in Chattanooga cost?

Do brides regret not having a videographer?

It’s one of the most common things couples mention regretting. My favorite story was from a couple who thought they’d save money on videography by passing a video camera around between the guests to get a whole story from their perspective. It started out shaky and shortly someone just set it face down on the table and the rest of it was black, nothing for the rest of the night. So in the end ended up with nothing. She still tells me about that mistake when ever I mention wedding videography.
