Two (2) cameras

With two camera shooting we are able to get different angles on the events that are occurring live in front of camera. This is beneficial in the marriage ceremony, speeches and first dance especially, allowing us to get different types of shots from these important parts on the day. The other bonus about two cameras is that you are capturing a lot more footage than you would get from just one camera. This in turn means that we have a lot more footage to choose the best bits from for the edit.

Two Cameras can of course have its problems. If you are having a small wedding party (less than 75 guests), or the locations are small, two cameras can start to overpower the situation. We try to stand back as far back as we can but nothing is going to stop you noticing two camera operators in a very small venue. Not to mention you will probably have formal & casual photographers buzzing around.

One (1) Camera

With one camera you are limited in the fact that this will be the only angle on everything at the wedding, but to be perfectly honest it still works. One camera operator can be very discrete following you and your guests’ movements through out the day. One Camera weddings are probably ideal for up to 150 guests and then you would need to seriously think about 2 cameras. The other bonus of the 1 camera package apart from discretion is the price, as it comes in considerably cheaper than 2 cameras.

Overall the perfect wedding video from a technical viewpoint would be 2 cameras, so that you can get those different angles and cover a lot more of the events that happen on the day.

However depending on your budget and wedding size are two cameras needed? The only way to know is by watching a 1 camera production and getting some advice from us directly. You can talk through your event and the location sizes and we can give you our honest opinion on what would work best for you.
