WEDDING VIDEOGRAPHY

Hitched Productions take a professional yet relaxed approach to videography to ensure that your wedding day is as stress free as possible.  We apply this same philosophy to our business.  Operating predominantly in the Melbourne metropolitan area we use the latest high definition technology to effortlessly capture your special day in an unobtrusive manner.


We take a photojournalistic approach to videography.  What this means is that we operate quietly in the background capturing spontaneity and emotion, meaning you are presented with a story of your wedding, not just a handful of memories. We try to capture those natural moments, the nervous look as the groom waits for the bride, the uncontrollable smile of newlyweds and that moment when you both thought the camera was off. We know that when you watch your wedding video you will say to yourself 'I didn't even know they were filming that!'


Picking the right videographer to film and edit your wedding is more than just selecting someone based on how their work looks.  You need a videographer that will allow you to relax in front of the camera, a videographer that can relate to your bridal party and importantly, a videographer that can work with your photographer.


In keeping with the stress free philosophy we generally shoot solo unless there is a specific need for a second videographer.  Whilst it is your 'big day' and you want to feel special, the last thing you need is a posse of videographers heckling you like paparazzi.  We see it all too often. 


Hitched Productions tailor a video package to suit your needs as opposed to offering multiple packages which you have to sift through. We offer a 12 hour all-day package as standard and for most couples this is sufficient.  After all, what you expect is a video of your entire wedding day, not just the first half. 

With over 4 years experience in filming and editing weddings, our aim remains the same. Provide you with a professional and affordable wedding videography service in an unobtrusive manner. We will do our best to ensure you are relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera allowing us to capture and create a story of your wedding day that brings you joy and happiness.

TECHNOLOGY

Hitched Productions capture your Wedding Day using Sony NX and HDR digital video cameras.  We use Sennheiser wireless microphones to ensure that those all important wedding vows are nice and clear. 


Our primary camera is the Sony NX5U which uses tapeless, solid-state memory to capture your wedding.   In addition to the dual memory cards, we simultaneously record your wedding to flash drive providing an extra layer of backup protection.  Our second camera is the Sony HDR FX7.


We specifically use Sony cameras as they outperform their competition when it comes to low-light filming.  Churches and Reception  Centres are typically quite dark and with the Sony cameras we can minimise the effects of low-light.


We do not shoot your wedding via DSLRs.  By avoiding DSLRs we ensure that the video will remain in focus and that the audio is automatically synchronized with the video.  We do not try and sync audio in post production as this can lead to mouths moving with no words coming out and is not a good look.  By using traditional video cameras we can cut down the number of cameras and operators making our presence at your wedding discreet.  This is something your guests will thank you for.


We only film in high definition and avoid cliché transitions and effects accustomed to amateur productions.  We apply colour correction to give your wedding video a more cinematic look.  The footage is then backed by your careful selection of music giving it that special touch. The finished product is a DVD or Blu-ray that you, your friends and your family will cherish forever.
