9. How to Work with Videographers

Summary: Photographers should know how to communicate and work together with videographers.


DO NOT GET IN OTHER PEOPLE’S SHOT

Videographers are told to record the entire ceremony without any cuts in-between. If Photographers need to move into the center aisle, they MUST communicate with the videographer to walk into the aisle together. The importance is both Photographer and Videographer get uninterrupted shot of the entire event.

You can find instructions for videographers here: CLICK HERE

COMMUNICATE THROUGHOUT THE DAY

Photographers and Videographers must communicate their intentions throughout the wedding. Important that you formulate a plan before ceremony and reception.

When the event happens, be aware of your surroundings and know where everyone is at. Provide hand signals while keeping on-going eye contact to signal non-verbal communication.

SHOW RESPECT TOWARDS EACH OTHER

Everyone has a job to complete! Respecting each other’s work will help you develop stronger understanding of another’s job. We are a team built to respect and service each other.
