How early should we book Alisby Photo and Film for our wedding?

Will a second shooter or videographer be present at our wedding?

Is it possible for you to capture footage of both of us while we prepare?
Certainly, if the preparations for both you and your partner are happening at the same location, we are typically able to capture footage of both. In cases where the preparations are taking place at separate locations, We are generally able to commit to filming only one of you. Nonetheless, if the logistics allow, we are more than willing to attempt capturing both. Additionally, you have the choice to include a second videographer to ensure that both locations are comprehensively covered.
Why do you say that the film is 8-10 minutes long?
We request your confidence in determining the duration of your Cinematic Film. The narrative and details of your special day will naturally shape its length. It's crucial to me that your story isn't abbreviated due to rigid time limits or, conversely, stretched thin just to meet a set duration. Based on our expertise, a film typically extends beyond 6 minutes but seldom exceeds 8 minutes. This range tends to be the ideal span, enabling me to portray your story most exquisitely.
Can we suggest specific shots or styles for our wedding photos and videos?
Absolutely! Your suggestions and preferences are invaluable. We encourage you to share your vision, favourite styles, and essential shots with us. Working collaboratively is vital to ensure your wedding album and film truly mirror your personal narrative.
When can we expect our wedding film to be completed?
Crafting each wedding film involves a meticulous focus on detail, which demands time, particularly during peak periods. Nonetheless, we endeavour to have your video ready within 16 weeks and photos within 3-4 weeks.
Do you provide DVDs?
Indeed, we offer both DVDs and Blu-rays. While it's becoming less common, we proudly provide these options.
