Should I hire a wedding videographer?
The answer is simply YES!!!
Wedding films allow for your precious memories to be experienced on a much deeper level than with photos. Although I’m a wedding photographer, I HIGHLY recommend having your special day captured on film. Weddings always go by so fast, so it’s a great way to relive the day. I had video coverage for my own wedding and literally cry every time I watch it.
Destination wedding film
I had the honor of shooting my first wedding film with an amazing couple. Rebecca and Stephen’s union is what dreams are made of. Although they live in England, they got married in the stunning Redwoods of California to celebrate their love for nature and adventure. Their family and friends flew in from all over the world for this international affair with several days of festivities. The couple flew me out to stay with them for the whole weekend giving me an opportunity to bond with their guests.
Their military wedding took place at the Sequoia Retreat Center in Ben Lomond, CA, which had all the charm of the majestic outdoors. It was a wonderful opportunity to document their union through video, as it captures all of the emotions, movements, and sounds in a way that photography simply cannot.
Here is the result of my work as their videographer:
What was my process?
Authenticity was my priority. I wanted to tell their story in full, with all the important as well as the subtle moments. Although I mainly focused on candid moments, I also interacted with the couple and their guests on a personal level to capture fun and engaging moments. There were so many personal touches, joyful occasions, and stunning scenes that I did not need to stage anything. I worked alongside their talented photographer, Kadi Tobin , to simply ensure everything was properly documented. We even curated a private first look so that the couple had an opportunity to enjoy each other’s company before the day’s big events.
How did the clients feel?
Rebecca and Stephen were incredibly grateful to relive their special day through this film. They witnessed moments they had never seen, as well as properly experiencing their own reality. They were even able to share their day with loved ones who couldn’t make it.
What they had to say:
“Working with Jasna for our wedding video was the best decision we made (other than getting married). Leading up to the wedding, she was so thoughtful in asking questions to prepare her coverage. On the day of, she melded in seamlessly with our entire wedding party and made people feel relaxed on camera. She got our video back to us promptly and we were BLOWN AWAY at how artistic, creative, and thoughtful she was in capturing the day. We were thrilled with working with her throughout the process and touched by how much love she put into the final product. Jasna is a true gem, her soulfulness and genuine love for her craft is evident in everything she does.”
