FAQ

So how does this wedding videography thing work?
I know how full on organising a wedding is, and I always strive to keep my part as simple as possible. The style heavily leans to the candid so you enjoy the getting married part and I grab the moments. I’m not there to direct how your video should look, it’s all the best parts of what your wedding day was.

Can Different Suns work alongside our photographer?
Absolutely! The style has been built knowing the photographer has a huge role to play and plenty to do and I’m not there to be in the way of that. Video is a different beast and my philosophy works around knowing that candid works best.

We don’t really want to pose, is that ok?
Very much so. Within 10 minutes you’ll forget the camera is there and I’ll go about being that fly on the wall you hear about. The philosophy is the less you’re thinking about a camera the better the results.

Will the cameras be in the way?
They sit back out of the way on long lenses so your guests can enjoy it all as they should.

How long do you stay? Will you stay a little longer?
If there’s something happening beyond the coverage that you’d like me there for it’s $250p/h

Do you use a drone? Is it extra?
The drone is always in the kit which I don’t charge extra for. Occasionally some locations or weather may prohibit flying but apart from that I’ll be up there.

Can I choose the music?
For your feature film the tracks can be anything you like although tracks for the short films have to come from a licensing website. I have a huge library of them and generally I choose a track that suits the day. I’m are happy for couples to be involved in track selection if you’re keen to sift through the libraries – hit me up.

What’s in the feature film?
Your ceremony and speeches are edited together from multiple cameras and in full as they happened. Then there’s all the highlights of the day– all the getting ready, pre-ceremony, reception room/cocktail hour and all of the reception formalities and highlights.

How long until we receive our film?
It depends a bit on the time of year but generally in the 8-12 week range. Our contract states a bit longer but I’m just playing it safe.

How do we receive our film?
DVDs and USBs aren’t my favourite. One scratch and a DVD is dead or one tidy up and a USB is gone. I deliver all the films via an online portal that anyone can stream from anywhere. From here you can also download the videos directly to your own computer and it’s easy to share around with any friends & family you wish.

We’re after a certain style, can you do that?
I’m always keen to hear what’s important for your video and how I can best capture that. It’s something of a happy medium of how I shoot and what you want for your video. I encourage you to watch a few of the vids to get an idea of how yours can look.

 Alright, lets do this! How do we lock you in?
If you would like to catch up I’m always around – either before booking or before the day it’s always great to go over things and get an idea on what’s important for you guys. To lock it in it’s 25% at the time of booking and the balance due a few weeks out from the day.
