FAQs
No, I don't duplicate coverage. I strategically choose key moments for Super 8—like your first look, ceremony highlights, or golden hour portraits—while capturing the comprehensive story digitally with full audio. You'll barely notice the switch between cameras, and the approach feels natural rather than intrusive.
Hybrid works best with natural light and outdoor elements where Super 8 truly shines. If your wedding is entirely indoors with low lighting, or you're planning very short coverage, I may recommend sticking with cinematic videography to maximize quality and budget. I'll advise honestly during our consultation.
Not significantly. Super 8 cameras are compact and lightweight, and I often work solo or with one additional person. The gear adds minimal setup time and no stress to your timeline or venue logistics. Most couples don't notice any difference in our presence compared to standard videography coverage.
