FAQ
Frequently asked Questions
What do you offer?
What you get from me is above all a unique and emotional and atmospheric story of you and your special day. That is the most important result of my services.
My work is always very individual because it is inspired by my couples, their guests and the mood of the celebration.
Most couples look forward to the creative wedding film, which lasts around 5-8 minutes, and a longer story (wedding reportage), which lasts around 15-20 minutes. Sometimes weddings are big and celebrated over several days in Italy, Spain or another country. In this case, I will create a customized offer for you that fits your needs 100%.
What does a video cost?
First of all, it’s sensible to start differently. I invest a lot of my own energy in each of your wedding films. I edit your videos with a lot of heart and passion. Money is not my top priority. I want to edit a mega beautiful video. But I realize that my work is not for free and that I can film a maximum of 10 weddings a year to meet my own quality standards and spend time with my family.
I currently have 2 jobs and am putting aside everything I can to fulfill my dream of working as a full-time wedding videographer and spending more time with my children.
Prices for wedding videos vary depending on the country, time of attendance and whether the wedding is in peak season. There are many of us and each one offers different packages and prices.
But trust me: it only makes sense to go for the style of movie and the person that appeals to you the most and fits you perfectly. The person you book should be able to deliver the visual and personal taste that you love so much!
01
Do you offer photos and videos?
Since I want to edit a high quality wedding film for you, I focus exclusively on video. However, I am happy to work with a few colleagues who will take pictures on your wedding day and help me with the video recording during the ceremony. This creates double the added value. There are more clips for your movie and you have enough pictures of your wedding day.
02
When will we receive the finished wedding video?
A wedding movie is delivered in 10 to 12 weeks. Why is that? I always tell a story with the video. And every story is different. During the process, I pay attention to many special elements of your story, to your guests, to the vows, to the speech. In the end, everything has to fit together perfectly and I need a little time for that. To round everything off, I also have to find the right music and retouch some videos (color grading).
03
Can I choose my own music?
A clear YES. I am very happy when I can decide on the music design myself, because it is part of my creative work. I work with licensed music so that the video can be published. But if you have special wishes, then we can choose your favorite song from musicbed.com together.
04
Do you calculate travel expenses?
All travel costs are included in my offer. Travel costs, flight costs, accommodation and catering costs.
05
What rights of use do we have to the videos?
You can use the videos/photos for private purposes freely and without any time restrictions. Commercial use or sale of the videos/photos is not permitted.
06
It rains on the wedding day – what now?
When it rains, that’s the way it is. Many people may not believe me at first – but rain videos can be fantastically beautiful. If you really don’t want to shoot in bad weather, don’t worry – we’ll always find a solution together!
07
What is the schedule for the bridal couple shoot?
For me personally, “go with the flow” is the right answer. Sure, it’s good to have a timetable. But in every wedding there are unpredictable things. Rain, for example, or strong sun or tiredness. My specific recommendation: Let’s plan 2 shootings of 30 minutes each and not far from the location. 1 before the ceremony, 1 after the ceremony. We can plan a last small shoot of 15 minutes during dinner as a reserve.
08
How long should we book a wedding videographer for?
So that I can give your movie a unique story, I recommend at least one booking from your preparation “Getting Ready” to the party. So my package is what I recommend with a full-day escort. That’s twelve hours.
09
How does the booking process work?
The booking request is made via my website. The first step is to fill in a form with your details and the date of the event. I will check my availability. We will make a non-binding appointment to discuss your wishes and needs. If a package appeals to you, I will send you the offer after the video call. To finalize the booking, you will receive a contract to sign and an invoice. A deposit of 20% of the invoice is due immediately.

What’s the difference between a highlight film and a wedding reportage?
Highlight film: The highlight film will create an atmospheric overview of the best moments of your day. It is very intense and I spend a lot of time making sure that everything fits together perfectly. The video is ideal for sharing with friends and family.
My goal with the highlight film is for you to feel your feelings and emotions during the wedding every time you watch the video. I want this movie to help strengthen your bond every time. The finished movie is about 6 to 8 minutes long.
Wedding report age: A wedding reportage is basically a more comprehensive film that is slower and less intense than a highlight film. The wedding reportage focuses on more extensive audio recordings and more detailed footage of the entire day. This film is structured chronologically and is approx. 15-20 minutes long.
