The Ultimate Video: The “Video
of Love”
A profile: Video D’Amour
Written by Linnea Caldwell
We capture so many of life’s precious moments on video: baby’s
 first steps, toddler antics, embarrassing junior high moments, school
plays and musicals and crazy high school antics. For most couples though,
the most important day to capture on video is their wedding day. That
special day passes so quickly that all the important details are easily
forgotten.
This certainly was true for me. James and I were married on June 26,
and as I reflect back on that day, most of it
seems blurry and more like a dream than reality. How valuable it was
to relive that day, to remember the toasts given, prayers prayed, vows
spoken, tears cried, songs danced to and so much more, through our amazing,
professional wedding DVD.
Hiring a professional videographer was one of the best decisions we
made. Here are some question which led us to it:
Why would we want a videographer for our wedding or other special event?
1) As the bride looks at the value of all of the wedding services, videography
becomes significantly more important. According to a 2003 survey by
Breakthrough Marketing, Inc., 60% of all brides who didn’t have
their weddings videotaped said that they wish they had.
2) 95% of brides who used a professional videographer to videotape their
wedding said they recommend future brides should at least consider using
a videographer.
3) Because the event passes so quickly, the only way for everyone, including
future generations, to remember every special moment is through an artistic
DVD which takes the viewer through every moment of the day, from walking
down the aisle to the last dance, in a condensed way that captures every
special moment without boring its audience.
Why would we choose a professional versus an amateur videographer?
1) According to the 2003 survey by Breakthrough Marketing, Inc., of all
brides who used a friend or family member to videotape their wedding
versus a professional, 49% said they would hire a professional if they
could do it again.
2) Only a trained and experienced professional is fully prepared in experience,
technology, equipment and training for their one chance to capture your
day, through the rush of preparations, the emotion of the ceremony and
the excitement of the reception. Amateur videographers often make mistakes
because of their lack of experience.
3) Only a professional videographer has the technology, experience and
skill needed to edit your multiple hours of footage into a comprehensive
45 - 90 minutes, which is much more often watched and more enjoyed than
a drawn-out, poorly edited video.
4) An amateur videographer likely will not have the time or equipment
for romantic special effects, guest interviews, courtship stories, individualized
DVD covers, interactive DVD menus and the many other options available
with a professional videographer.
If you have begun looking for a professional videographer, I can help
you with your search for a quality, affordable, skilled, professional
one…Video D’Amour. This husband-and-wife team, Jason and
Katherine Nofs, capture your special day each from their own different
angles and perspectives; they won’t miss anything!
These “new kids on the block” demonstrated to us the professionalism,
friendliness, talent, experience, commitment and passion for their career
and clients that will guarantee they will become a long-standing favorite
in Southwest Michigan. They come highly recommended from their former
clientele (such as us).
When we first discovered them, we knew we had hit the jackpot. Their
young, fresh eyes (they are both in their mid-twenties) and passion for
their career brings a refreshing breeze to the often stereotypical standards
of wedding videography. Their concept of creative yet traditional videography,
attention to detail, subtle special effects and awesome editing skills
make for a unique, irreplaceable memento of your special day. Ours is
our most cherished keepsake.
When it comes to weddings, there is simply no contest. Videography is
the way to go, professionals are the best choice and Video D’Amour
is the best in the area. Don’t just take our word for it though,
give them a call and see for yourself. We highly recommend them, and
we know that after you meet them, you too will choose Video D’Amour.
