Hiring a wedding photographer has always been a pretty straightforward affair. Most photographers, after all, have references, a portfolio, and a distinctive style that is easy to identify. You can decide what kind of wedding photographs you want by seeing what is available. Do you want ones that look staged and perfect, or ones that look more natural and spontaneous? Do you want to take most of your wedding photographs before the actual event, or do you want the photographer to catch everyone in action. Going to a couple professional photographers, you can easily make up your mind and hire someone who does things just the way you like.
Getting wedding movies made, however, can be much more difficult. There are so many wedding video choices to make that it can be baffling. As a matter of fact, not everyone hires professionals to do their wedding videos. With wedding photographs, you see, the key is to get a limited number of perfect pictures. You want a small album filled with photos that perfectly capture the events. With a wedding video, however, there are many different choices to be made.

Some people simply want to capture the event as a keepsake. Many families I know don't even hire a wedding videographer. Instead, they will pass around one or several camcorders, letting everyone take a turn at it. Sometimes, this gets a better result. You see, having a family member sticking a camcorder in your face is much less offputting than some professional you don't know. Unfortunately, there are disadvantages to this wedding video approach as well. For one, it is harder to get it professionally edited. Unless someone in your family is very good with editing video clips, you might have to deal with a rough, uncut finished product.
If you have the money to spend, I recommend using both approaches. You can have a professional marriage movie made, while allowing a few relatives to film their own wedding video. That way, you get the best of both worlds. You have a wedding video that is seamlessly assembled, professional, and down to earth, and one that is a little bit quirkier and rough around the edges. If you don't like one, the chances are the other one will work out. Best of all, you will have even more wonderful keepsakes to help you treasure your special day. All in all, the more recordings you make, the better!
