All the work and interaction is done by us, from start to finish.
How many hours are you present at a wedding?
We are there long enough to capture all the images we need, from the bridal preparations to the cake cutting and the start of the reception.
Do you do engagement sessions?
Whenever possible, both in video and photography. We believe it's ideal as it allows us to get to know the couple, creating empathy and a bond that proves very useful on the wedding day. We also conduct post-wedding sessions, like "trash the dress," for example.
Do you have a drone? What equipment do you use?
We use a drone whenever possible as one of our tools. We come equipped with Sony Alpha cameras, some of the best on the market, along with all necessary accessories to document everything in any setting, such as audio recorders, lighting, stabilizers, etc.
What is the duration of your wedding films?
It depends on the package booked. Most often, we deliver two videos. A short video, about 2 minutes long, featuring the best moments for social media; and a longer, more documentary-style film, ranging from 10 to 15 minutes, where we include our complete record of your day. But everything will be pre-agreed.
How many photos do you deliver?
It depends on the wedding and the specific moments captured, but it is very rare for us to deliver less than 700 photos. All are edited and in high resolution, of course.
Do you always work as a pair?
Sometimes we work individually, if only one videographer or photographer package is booked. However, whenever possible, we work together.
Occasionally, we ask professional friends to join us so that we can have, for example, two videographers and two photographers at the same wedding. But we never send a team without being present ourselves..
How long does it take to deliver the work?
The delivery time varies depending on the time of year; during the summer, there is a higher volume of work, so the editing time is extended. However, we do not exceed three months for photography and six months for video/film.
Do you travel abroad for work?
Yes, from north to south, including the islands, we love to travel! Being able to combine all these passions—video, photography, and travel—is just perfect! We'll go wherever we're called to immortalize a beautiful love story!
Do you do other types of work besides weddings?
Yes, we also work with commercial video and photography, as well as private sessions.
