Absolutely. Most people secure their bookings at least 12-18 months in advance especially if your wedding is during November or February, as these seem to be the most popular months. Hamilton currently has very few qualified professional wedding videographers. Weddings during these months are often booked 2 years in advance! Contact us to see if your date is still available...

All photography is now completed using high end digital cameras. Yes you have the choice of colour, black and white and artistically altered photographs. This will be discussed in conjunction with your photographer as to your personal preferences.

Cameras will be rolling for almost the entire day to capture as many special moments as possible. After editing, the wedding DVD will usually run from between 60 to 90 minutes, although this is dependent on the day.

This is dependent on the type of package you have requested. We will sit down with you to discuss your personal needs and tailor the base package to suit.

Yes you do. As part of every package, you will receive your high resolution photographs on a CD/DVD. These are free for you to use and contain no copywright.

We own and use the most modern digital editing equipment purpose built exclusively for videography. This allows no loss of quality transferring from the camera recording to editing and the finished product will be stored onto DVD+R media, and covered in a customised label.

I make every effort to record your wedding unobtrusively and tastefully, using no lights at the ceremony, and remaining stationary and silent throughout.

By all means, however do not expect professional results. With professional cameras, digital mastering, titling, special effects, computer-based digital editing equipment, microphones, tripods, and plenty of backup equipment, I can ensure a total professional quality production.

Two or more cameras will provide a more interesting and vibrant video.

Due to the mounting costs of petrol, NZWeddingz charges a travelling cost on any of our packages that we offer, if travelling is required outside of the Hamilton City boundary. This will be charged on a case by case basis

We aim for the finished video and/or photographs being delivered to you within 6-8 (six-eight) weeks of your wedding day. This is dependent on the proofs being confirmed by the wedding couple in a timely manner (without the need to feel rushed). Although we reserve the right during particularly busy seasons, to take a little longer than the advertised timeframe. Rushed wedding video DVDs and photographs can appear to be rushed when finished in a hurried timeframe, so we like to take the time to ensure a lasting memory that is professionally finished.

The picture and sound should be crystal clear as these are the two most important aspects of the video. The titles should have a professional look and be clear, concise and easy to read. The production should be tightly and tastefully edited, making the tape more enjoyable to watch than real time raw footage. A less experienced videographer will try to use special effects in a gimmicky way. The most important element to shop for is the actual videographer, whose experience and talents are what you really want.

Price plays a key role in determining your selection of professionals, and there is a photographer and videographer for every budget. After determining your spending limit, then you can begin to evaluate your professionals for quality, experience and compatibility.

Wedding videography is relatively new, only coming into its own in the past ten years. Wedding photography, on the other hand, has been around for almost 150 years! Generally, photographers and videographers get along just fine.
