10 Questions to Ask Your Wedding Videographer Before Booking
Booking a wedding videographer is a big decision. After all, your wedding film is one of the few ways you can relive your special day for years to come. The right videographer will not only capture the major moments but also the emotions, details, and atmosphere that make your wedding unique.
To help you feel confident in your choice, here are 10 important questions to ask before booking a wedding videographer, along with answers that show how we work with couples to create unforgettable wedding films.
1. What’s your filming style?
We specialise in cinematic wedding videography with a natural, documentary style approach. We capture authentic emotions, candid interactions, and the little details that make your day truly yours, while also including sweeping cinematic shots that give your film a timeless, story driven feel.
2. Can we see examples of your past work?
Absolutely! You can browse highlight reels and full wedding films on our portfolio page. Each film is uniquely tailored to the couple, so you’ll see a range of moods, styles, and locations.
We also share behind the scenes moments and wedding details on Instagram, where you can see some of our favourite moments from the weddings we’ve captured.
3. How do you work alongside photographers?
We collaborate seamlessly with photographers, coordinating in advance to make sure both your photos and film are captured beautifully, without interfering with each other.
Our approach is discreet, allowing us to blend in while the focus stays on your day. Photographers usually lead certain shots, which works perfectly with our style, letting us capture the natural, candid moments in between.
4. How do you handle audio (vows, speeches, music)?
Sound quality is just as important as visuals. We use discreet lapel mics for vows, professional recorders for speeches, and carefully balance music during post production, ensuring your words and emotions are captured clearly.
5. Do you work with more than one videographer on the day?
Yes! With TJ Films, you’ll always have two filmmakers. This allows us to capture different angles and reactions simultaneously, like both of your expressions during a first look or ceremony entrance.
6. What’s included in your wedding videography packages?
Our packages are flexible to suit a range of needs, from short highlight reels to full length feature films. Standard coverage includes your ceremony, speeches, and main events. Optional add-ons include drone footage, teaser edits, and social media friendly clips.
See all the details on our wedding packages page.
7. How long after the wedding will we receive our film?
Teaser edits: within a few days
Highlight reels: usually under 2 weeks
Full wedding films: delivered within 3 weeks
We know you’ll be eager to relive your day, so we always aim for a timely delivery without compromising quality. You have our word, you won’t be waiting months to see your memories.
8. Do you have backup equipment?
Yes, ALWAYS! We bring multiple cameras, audio recorders, and storage backups to every wedding. Your once in a lifetime memories are never left to chance.
9. What happens if you’re unavailable on the wedding day?
While this is rare, we have a trusted network of professional videographers who can step in if needed. Your wedding day is too important to leave to chance, and we always make sure you’re covered.
10. Why should we choose you over other wedding videographers?
At TJ Films, we do more than just record your wedding we tell your story. Combining technical expertise with an artistic touch, we create films that feel personal, emotional, and timeless. Couples often say they felt completely at ease with us, which lets us capture the most natural, heartfelt moments.
Trust us to capture your day, and let the film speak for itself.
