Why Hire A Pittsburgh Wedding Videographer?
Remember The Day How It Was
A wedding is often said to be the most important day of a person’s life. The union of one person to another, a meshing of families, and the sharing of traditions. It is a shared experience that celebrates the couple. Yet, it is also a blur.
It takes plenty of planning and preparation for an incredible event. Most people’s biggest concern is that it went by so fast. Ceremonies can vary in length and have many moments within them. The best thing one can do is to capture the entirety of those moments through video.
Vows and unity ceremonies are beautiful to experience in the moment. Everyone in attendance can listen to the couple profess their love. They have the chance to pour their hearts out to one another, crack a few jokes, and express their love. There is a unique feeling of being in that moment with a partner and everyone attending. Having a video of the ceremony will be something a couple will look back on for years to come.
Photos Can't Tell the Whole Story
Photographers are essential to the modern wedding experience. They capture individual moments while everyone else gets to enjoy the wedding as a whole. Photographers capture cake cuttings, first dances, garter/bouquet tosses, and other big moments.
But what about everything between? Video is great to capture moments with more than a visual alone. It can capture full moments that photos can only show; not tell.
A picture of the cake cutting is sentimental. A video can show the whole process of one person thinking about whether they are going to be nice and feed their partner the cake... or not!
A picture of a first dance is a beautiful moment between child and parent. A video can add the element of music. It could be a sentimental song that is significant to their relationship. It could have a fun dance number they worked hard on that pictures will not do justice.
A picture of a garter or bouquet toss is a very entertaining moment. A video can capture the moment everyone rushes in to catch it (and the people who run away!) Pictures are wonderful and sentimental, but video captures what the pictures cannot.
Something to Show People Who Weren't There (Or Even Those Who Were)
Not everyone can come to every wedding. Things happen that prevent people who wanted to be there from attending. Generally, only around 75% of the people invited will attend a wedding. For the other 25%, video can help.
Capturing a wedding with video will help everyone feel involved. All those moments mentioned before can be shared with others. Video puts the viewer in the front row of the wedding without ever leaving their home.
For those who attended, but could not be engaged in the event will appreciate this after the fact. For example, weddings on a windy day or with a more quiet couple can provide a challenge for guests to hear the ceremony. Children having a meltdown or issues arriving at the venue can prevent people from experiencing the entire ceremony. It is helpful to have a professional capture video so guests do not miss a thing.
