How important is it to hire a professional instead of using a friend to video my wedding?
It is extremely important. An amateur-produced wedding video won’t be watched very often because it is boring. The problem starts with the equipment. The typical camcorder used by an amateur produces a poor image in low light. Most churches and reception halls have low light. Problems get worse when you listen to the sound you get from a typical video camera: it’s hollow and very difficult to hear…especially in large open areas like a church or reception hall where sound reverberates off the walls and ceiling. Next, the typical amateur doesn’t have the means to edit the video into a tightly-knit production that tells your love story with emotion and impact.
