Wedding Photo and Video Packages in Connecticut
Hire one team for photos and film. A combined package is planned together, so the gallery and the film feel complete and the day runs smoothly.
Discuss wedding coverage
Share your date, venue and the coverage you want. We will talk through scope and put a quote in writing after we speak.
One team for your whole wedding story
Your day deserves more than coverage. It deserves a team that works in sync, expects moments before they happen and captures them from more than one angle.
Hiring separate vendors for photo and video can lead to style mismatches, timeline miscommunication and extra stress. One team for both can give you:
- Coordinated coverage
- Photos and film with a matching look
- A smoother wedding timeline
- One point of contact
- Consistent quality
- A single approach to your story
What a full-day photo and video package can include
Every wedding is different, so we build the package around yours. A full-day package is the starting point many couples ask about. Items can include the following, and exactly what is included is confirmed in your quote.
- Full-day photography coverage
- Full-day videography coverage
- More than one camera angle at key moments
- Two shooters working as one team
- Drone footage, where weather and the venue permit
- A highlight film
- A gallery of edited photos
- A short social media teaser video
- The ceremony and speeches recorded in full
Why bundling can work better than separate vendors
The benefit of booking photo and video together is coordination, not only equipment. When one company handles both, the plan is shared from the start.
- Both sides plan the timeline together
- The timeline is built around creative flow
- Portraits and film clips match in look
- The ceremony and first look are covered from multiple viewpoints
- There is no conflict between what the photographer and videographer need

Multi-camera coverage, audio and light
Key moments from several angles
The first look, vows, entrances, speeches and dances can be covered from more than one position so nothing is missed.
Light and sound
We use lighting and direct audio capture where the setting calls for it, so footage looks clean and speeches are clear.
Venue planning
We talk to your venue and planner before the day so the plan fits the space.
Choose the parts you want delivered separately
Every couple values different parts of the day. If you want something delivered on its own, tell us and we will plan for it.
- Ceremony
- Highlight film
- Speeches
- Dances
- Introductions
- First look
- Cake cutting
- Bouquet toss
- Send-offs
- Anything else that is specific to you
How to choose your wedding photographer and videographer
It helps to work with people who match your energy. Before you book, we offer a conversation, in person or by phone, to understand your vision and see whether we are a good fit.
From booking to the wedding day we stay in touch with you, the venue and your planner so the plan fits your day.
Coverage options, described without prices
Use these to think about the shape of your coverage before asking for quotes. None has a price or fixed hours here. Scope, hours and deliverables are confirmed in your written quote.
Photo only
Suits couples who want a gallery and prints. You gain full attention on stills. Watch for moments, such as vows, that a photograph cannot hold.
Film only
Suits couples who want to hear the day and see it move. You gain recorded vows and speeches. Watch for having few stills for frames and albums.
Photo and film from one team
Suits couples who want one plan and one contact. You gain a shared timeline and matching look. Watch for how the team handles moments that overlap.
Photo and film from separate vendors
Suits couples who already love a specific photographer and videographer. You gain freedom to choose each. Watch for timeline conflicts and who coordinates between them.
A smaller ceremony and portraits option
Suits an elopement or intimate wedding. You gain focused coverage of key moments. Watch for what is left out, such as getting ready or a send-off, and decide that on purpose.
What to cover first, and what to cut first
If you need to trim, decide by importance, not the clock: the moments you could not recreate, the people who must appear, and the parts you would happily see briefly.
- Cover first: the ceremony, key portraits, family groups you listed, and speeches you want recorded.
- Often cut first: long stretches of ordinary reception time, repeated detail shots and optional events outside the main day.
- Discuss before cutting anything timing-dependent, such as a sunset portrait.
Add-ons to ask about
Each is an option, not a default. Ask whether it is available for your date and venue, and have it written into the quote.
Second shooter
An extra person for a second angle. Ask what they would cover.
Drone
Aerial footage, where the venue allows it. Ask the venue first.
Raw footage
Unedited clips. Ask whether this can be offered and in what form.
Extra edits
A teaser, a full ceremony or speeches cut. Ask what each adds.
Engagement session
A portrait session before the wedding.
Rehearsal dinner or morning after
Coverage of events around the main day.
Prints and albums
Physical products. Ask what is offered.
Livestream
A live broadcast for remote guests. Ask about venue connectivity.
Questions to ask any photographer or videographer
Ask the same list of every vendor, us included, so quotes are easier to compare. The list is in the first-call section below.
What we will ask you
- Your date, venue and ceremony location, and whether they are in the same place.
- The schedule you are planning, even if it is a draft.
- Which moments, people and details matter most to you.
- Whether any part of the day has restrictions on photo, video or audio.
- The planner, officiant or venue coordinator we should speak with.
- How you plan to use the finished photos and film.
How agreements are usually confirmed in writing
A written agreement typically lists the coverage, people, date and place, deliverables, and how they reach you. Payment terms and how a date is held are also set out there. We state no amounts, percentages or timelines here. Ask for each to be written down, and read it before you sign. Ask how a changed venue or date is handled, too.

Common questions
How early should we book?
Many couples secure their date 8 to 14 months ahead, especially for peak Connecticut wedding season. Earlier is safer.
Do we receive all the edited photos?
You receive an edited gallery. What it includes is confirmed in your quote.
Can we get raw footage?
It can be discussed as an add-on. Ask when you inquire.
How long is the highlight film?
Length is discussed when we plan your package, and options can be adjusted.
Do you offer custom packages?
Yes. Quotes are tailored to coverage hours, location and the size of your wedding.
Is a combined package always better?
Not always. It can simplify coordination, but a couple who loves a specific photographer or videographer may choose separate vendors. Compare how each plan handles the shared timeline.
Can we start small and add later?
Ask. Some add-ons can be requested later and some depend on availability. Have any plan to add coverage written into the agreement.
What if our venue restricts drones or filming?
Ask the venue early and tell us what it says. We can plan around it, and the agreement can state what happens if a restriction applies on the day.
Are prints and albums part of every package?
Treat them as options to confirm. Ask what is offered, how you order them and where they appear in the quote.
How do we compare quotes from different vendors?
Ask each vendor the same questions and put the answers side by side: coverage, people, deliverables, add-ons and how payment is confirmed.
