Your Devon and Cornwall Wedding - November/December 2025 (Issue 58)

Love behind the lens The benefits of booking a videographer Music is vital in making a great wedding film. Enquire whether the videographer you wish to book has the copyright for the songs you might want. Many have this – but it’s good to be sure before your wedding video goes on social media! The sounds of the day are key in being able to relive your special day, for example, the father-of-the-bride giving a speech, or your mum giving you some marriage advice. Drones create impressive footage, but check regulations with your venue. If you decide to book both a wedding photographer and a videographer, consider choosing professionals who have different styles. That way, the video won’t duplicate the photographs. Wedding photos document the day with everything perfectly visible in bright colours (or black and white) while videography tells a more compelling story of the day using images that don’t need to be perfectly exposed. Light, angles, and composition work together to create beautiful big-day memories – storytelling is key. Loved ones can be captured with video, the way they laugh or dance, meaning you can relive memories of the people you love. Having all of your friends and family together in one place doesn’t happen often. Finally, videos can be shared on social media and with guests who couldn’t attend. What a wonderful reminder of the biggest day of your life! All images courtesy of unsplash.com PHOTOGRAPHY AND VIDEOGRAPHY 39
