Frequently asked questions

Though I'm sure you'd have some great options, I respectfully reserve the right to pick the piece for your film. The music choice is a huge part of the creative process and can really affect the way I shoot and edit. However, I'm more than happy to take on suggestions.

The editing process is a lengthy and time-consuming task, which I take pride in. I truly put my most into the edit and really think "if this was my own film, would I like this?" and I won't settle for less. So, all film packages can expect the delivery in the 8-12 week period.

Unlike photographers, I don't do set hours of coverage. You pay for a package and that's what you get, whether I need to be there till 8:30pm or 11:30pm to get all I need for the film, I'm flexible! I take a huge influence from the photographers schedule to avoid double shooting, but am happy to go with your flow - no set hours of coverage.

All films require a non-refundable deposit of $1100.00 NZD to lock in your day.

Yes! I travel anywhere. I've been to Mozambique, Malaysia, and Fiji so far for video projects. Costs are incurred anywhere outside the greater Christchurch area, which I'm happy to quote for when you get in touch.

Your photographer and I are like a tag team on the day! We are there to make you look awesome and keep it fun and relaxed. I've gotten to know a lot of the local photographers and am super keen to give suggestions. I often take an approach of letting the photographer run most things as usual then working along side for video specific pieces, but a lot of my work is candid and doesn't require much direction.

TL:DR; I work with any photographer and love meeting new vendors!

Yes it sure is! I shoot and deliver 4k video, because why not? If I can give that to you, may as well get the highest resolution and future proof your video for generations.

I typically only use the vows overlayed in your video. This is because it's something you've prepared to share publicly regardless, and often is actually nice things.

Some best-men speeches are brutal, and while they may funny, I don't want to accidentally incorporate a speech that you didn't quite want tainting your big day. Happy to use other pieces of the day and chat further about this if speeches are a "must have" overlay for your highlight film.
