Why Choose a Professional Wedding Videographer?

Wedding videography is rapidly becoming more popular among brides world-wide. Videographers are now widely considered a top service for weddings. In fact, in a survey commissioned by WEVA International, the majority of brides consider videography as one of the Top Ten most important bridal services, and after their weddings, an even greater number of brides consider it even more valuable than a Top Ten service.

Today, when consumer video cameras are more affordable and easy to use, some brides elect to have family or relatives video tape their wedding for free. However, in the WEVA survey, nearly half of these brides wished that they would have hired a professional. Many expressed regrets for not using a professional, while 95% of brides who did use a professional recommended other brides at least consider the same.

There are many more reasons to choose a professional than just statistics. Professional videographers use high-level equipment which offers far more superior picture quality and visual clarity than any consumer camera available. Professionals are also highly experienced with operating this equipment, and the result of their work is incomparable to that of an amateur.

Asking friends or family members to video your wedding prevents them from experiencing your wedding as welcome guests. To do a truly remarkable video, it would be impossible for them to enjoy your wedding as friends or family members should. Although you may save some money by enlisting your friends or family, it ultimately alienates them from your wedding celebration. Let the professionals capture your special day that you and your family can cherish forever. Gashler Films is a Utah videography company speciallizing in weddings and special events.
