Videography Versus Cinematography

Videography is capturing a moment from beginning to end. Moments are captured on a tripod with one angle of the shot. The whole purpose of this is to capture the entire event from start to finish.

 

On the other hand, our cinematography tells a story by capturing the captivating mood of a moment in time (a groom's face when he first sees his bride, a guest wiping a tear, etc.). We move around to capture all different angles of your event to help tell the story of your wedding day with a more beautiful and heartwarming feel. Think about when you watch a home video versus a movie shown in theaters. You can see the difference. The style of shooting, quality of the video, and the storytelling are completely different.

These are the moments, the moving pictures, that will live on forever.  A memory never forgotten.
