Find the BEST Long Island Wedding Videographer
As a Long Island wedding videographer I believe there are several key factors to keep in mind during the wedding videographer selection process. As a wedding videographer in Queens, NY and Long Island, NY, I take pride in making sure that all of my wedding couples have an experience with their wedding cinematographer that leaves a positive lasting impression on them. I believe that not all wedding videographers in Long Island and Queens are alike. Each one of us provides a unique experience and comes equipped with a unique set of skills and talents that set us a part from one another.
At Elssol Production I specialize in creating a fun and unique cinematic look for each of my couples' wedding videos. Creating a cinematic look is different in the sense that your video will have more of a movie quality rather than an amateur video feel. I use special techniques and equipment to make your wedding cinematography come to life.
Here are a three tips I suggest all my couples consider when they are looking for the best Long Island wedding cinematographer for them.
1. Personality
Every wedding professional, wedding cinematographers and videographers included, have a unique personality. This is truly what makes us unique from one another. However, not all personalities work together in the same way. When seeking out your Long Island wedding videographer or NYC wedding videographer, remember to pay close attention to their personality. How do they interact with you? How might they interact with large groups of people? How do they handle pressure and stress? All of these things will be present on your wedding day.
Now, imagine spending the majority of your wedding day with a person or two whom you don't enjoy being around. This could be a set up for disaster or, in the least, bad memories. Find a wedding videographer in Long Island whose personality you love and adore. This will guarantee that you enjoy being in their presence. After all, your wedding videographer will be spending the majority of your wedding day with you and your friends and family.
2. Style
Each wedding cinematographer in New York has a stylistic approach that is completely unique from one videographer to the next. We all compose shots differently and we all see the day from a different point of view. Stylistic approach is one of those things that you can't change. For this reason, when meeting with your wedding videographer, don't hesitate to ask to see multiple wedding videos so that you get a good idea of what type of style they shoot and edit in. Pay attention to transitions and movement. Listen to audio and musical choices. By understanding your videographer's style you can be more certain as to what you can expect when you receive your final wedding video.
Imagine being told that you were only going to watch one video or movie or commercial for the rest of your life. Wouldn't you want to make sure that you love everything about how that video was shot or how the story was told? For this reason, be very clear on the stylistic approach of your wedding videographer.
3. Price Point
All videographers are not created equal. By now, you should understand why. Therefore, not all video collections are priced the same. There are price points for wedding videographers in Long Island that move all across the board. This is why I suggest finding a videographer whose personality you love and adore, whose style you can't live without, and find room in your budget to make it work.
Let's consider the $5 movie bin at Walmart and the full price movie shelves. What's the difference? Most of us don't care too much for the movies in the $5 bin as much as we would the full price shelves, right? That's not to say that there aren't great buys in the value bin. However, the quality that you get out of the full priced movies or the new release section are currently much better and you value them more. How much will you value your wedding video if it was $500 vs. $2500. Again, if you understand and feel confident with the style of the video you will be receiving and you love the individual whom you hired, the odds of you loving your wedding video and valuing the end product as well as the process are in your favor!
There are plenty of other nitty gritty things to consider when trying to find the best wedding videographer in Long Island or Queens. I would be more than happy to explore these options and ideas with you.
