The Importance of Wedding Cinematography
Capturing the shots of your big day is crucial, ensuring your sweetest moments are
conserved and always ready to relive. As you crack open your wedding album, the
serendipity of the day washes over you, but time may slowly recover the small, intimate
details that evade the lens.
Cinematography is favored for its ability to secure these candid moments into a timeless
collection. However, its seeming extravagance often repels many couples who are
already clutching their wallets. Here are some reasons why motion pictures play a
significant role in documenting a wedding.
Saving the whole scene.
A photo is able to freeze time and preserve your fondest
moments, whether it’s a smooch in a blooming prairie or the big proposal in the city
center. However, photos often fail to capture all the swift, intimate details—stolen
glances, hand squeezing, wiped tears—all moments that harbor an abundance of
unspoken words and emotions.
When coupled with photography, a video promises the whole scene and creates a movie
unique to you. Voices, laughter and speeches of loved ones are secured within a timeless
piece, breathing life into those memories every time you visit them.
Memories fade.
It’s difficult to forget an event as significant as getting hitched, and
while you may have no issue recalling how your lover proposed or the way you felt
pledging your love, the details that paint the day are often fleeting. The heavy emotions,
rushing around, and stress can also cast a haze over your memory, adding even more
difficulty in your recollection.
Videos ensure all the tiny, intimate details are carefully tucked away until you waltz
down memory lane to re-experience all that joy and adrenaline that may have slipped
away.
Accurate preservation.
Memories don’t just fade; sometimes they are continuously
reshaped until they no longer resemble the original event. As we recall experiences, we
begin to rewrite our memories, filling in blanks or faces with our own perceptions until
they gradually lose accuracy. Videos take the weight of remembering through detailed,
vivid and engaging documentation, allowing you to reminisce without the strain.
Time often creeps up on us faster than we realize, threatening to snatch away memories
we take joy in. Videos, paired with prints, compile those memories and store them with
a secure lock, providing a sense of ease and a gift always there for your enjoyment.
A story unique to you.
Each video is its original piece as it crafts your vision into
striking imagery. You and your loved ones’ personalities and experiences are one of a
kind. Through a careful and artful eye, videographers compile your most compelling
moments into a movie starring you and your lover. Whether it’s a modest elopement or
a destination wedding miles away, the setting, sounds and color grades of the visuals are
refined to top-quality. After heavy pre- and post-production planning, editorial teams
cherry-pick and curate the most impactful imagery, presenting a cinematic treasure to
remember your love story forever.
Timeless heirloom.
Art is eternal, and anything art touches is eternalized. Through
photos and videos, parts of ourselves are able to live on through generations.
Cinematography restores impactful moments and memories while materializing them
into pieces that can be passed to friends and family to children and grandchildren. As we
slowly fade, our prints, albums and videos forever carry our words, emotions, traditions,
personalities, and more from heart to heart.
