Beware of Unprofessional Videographers

Today, anybody out of job thinks they can buy a camera, put together a great website and videotape weddings. Is this what you want for your most precious day and memories?

What to Look for:

Is your videographer Legal? Our they licensed by the City like any other business. Ask to see their business license.

Are they Insured? If a cameraman puts his camera down and guest trips and breaks a leg, you the Bride and Groom our responsible. A professional videographer carries liability insurance as well Errors and Omissions insurance.

Check the Better Business Bureau. As any legal business make sure they don't have a tainted record and how they rate.

How many years of experience do they have and do they have back up staff. A single videographer can't predict if he will get sick or something may happen to him, which could affect your memories. We always have a crew on call every weekend just in case. I can't tell you how many times I get called that there videographer didn't show up and can we send somebody right away.

Saving your Memories. How long does your videographer save the master. At our studio we have every master going back 30 years. I have had couples call me and say their house burned down and they lost everything, and I had the masters even 20 years later and may them new copies. That's insurance.

Just getting the cheapest could hurt your wedding memories. Take the time to check out your videographer or any of your wedding vendors before you might. As they say "The inconvenience of poor quality, lingers long after the thrill of a bargain !"
