Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

No. We aim to be unobtrusive throughout your day, using our experience to anticipate what's coming next so we can capture it naturally, without getting in the way of your celebration.

It depends on your preference. Some couples prefer distant, candid detail capture only, while others give their most important guests the chance to share their reflections and best wishes on camera.

Documentary-style coverage is unobtrusive and candid, capturing your day as it actually unfolds. Cinematic style borrows editing techniques from film, like dramatic pacing and music-driven cuts. We blend both: documentary-style filming, edited with a cinematic sensibility.

Often, yes. Check our current availability by reaching out directly. If your date is open, we can move quickly without cutting corners on the contract or deliverables.

We're flexible. Some couples prefer to plan everything in a single session, while we're happy to schedule additional meetings as needed to make sure your day is covered exactly how you want it.

Sarah S.

We could not have been happier with our experience with DS Wedding Studios! Both Eddie and Mike were absolutely wonderful to work with from start to finish. They were incredibly laid-back, flexible, and made us feel so comfortable and natural throughout the entire day. Being in front of a camera can feel awkward, but they made everything easy and fun.

One thing that really stood out was how accommodating they were. They even offered to drive us from our photo location to the reception so that all of our guests could enjoy cocktail hour, which was such a thoughtful gesture. When our wedding started later than planned, they both graciously agreed to stay late to ensure that no part of our special day was missed.

We were also amazed by how quickly our photos and video were delivered. The quality exceeded all of our expectations! Our wedding video is absolutely incredible and perfectly captures the beautiful moments, emotions, and love we felt throughout the day. It truly allows us to relive our wedding over and over again.

Eddie and Mike are simply the best, and we highly recommend DS Wedding Studios to anyone looking for a photographer and videographer for their wedding. Thank you for capturing our day so perfectly!
