Opinions: Photography & Videography

Meeting the photographers or videographers are quite tiring and need the patience to accommodate them. At least we managed to meet a few of them and got to know them better. Everyone of them had different characteristics so it was good to meet them up.

Our first meet-up with Motion Images:

My impression on their Video Express Highlight was too limited. Priscilla did not allow us to watch through the whole video process, instead she fast forward the gate-crashing part which we wanted to watch. Although we had seen the video online through their website, we expected to see better one but too bad, no opportunity to view the better one. So we were not interested in their videography package.

Both of us agreed that their photos were quite interesting due to the additional of the borders so we didn't find it boring. Too bad, I was not satisfied with their photo sharpness.

Although their packages were quite attractive (within our budget), we did not consider about it.

Our second meet-up with Mojo Ideas:

We had a tough time meeting with Jaze. We supposed to meet up on 29 February 2008 (Friday) at 6.30pm but he changed the timing to 7.30pm at last minute. I thought it was alright for us but my fiance could not make it. I really had a tough time arranging it. Then on 3 March 2008 (Monday), Jaze sent a message if we had arrived. I was shocked as I thought I was meeting him on 4 March 2008 (Tuesday). Well, he got mixed up with our appointment. Gosh, bad impression! What if he mixed up our wedding date?

His package was attractive which included photo montage, email invitation mailer, desktop wallpaper and video express highlight but we still felt that it was over our budget.

As for his character, he was quite inflexible in some ways because we felt that we had to follow his ways most of the time instead of following our ways. My fiance might afraid that we won't be able to fit his requirement as he had many of his own opinions.

After the discussion with my fiance, both of us agreed that the photos were not attractive plus his videos made us feel abit bored. *yawn* Definitely won't choose him unless we had no choice.

Our third meet-up with Fotowerke:

Celestine gave us a good impression because he allowed us to ask questions first before he showed us his portfolio. Quite amazingly that he could answer what we were trying to ask. From his character, we knew that he was a flexible guy who could accommodate to our timing. I seen many good comments on him through Singapore Brides Forum.

Firstly, he showed us his video express highlight which was quite entertaining. He mentioned that he did the videography service personally and he told us he could do the video express on time even if we had early solemnisation on that day. We were very happy to hear about that.

I loved his photographer's skill. I was quite amazed of the photos he showed us. I tried all ways to look at his photos to spot the sharpness but almost all the photos were very clear and special in some ways. I am very particular in choosing photography as I preferred perfectionist in photography skills and photo editing. So far this was the best album I had seen.

His packages were very attractive and it was within our budget. Worth to consider.

Our fourth meet-up with Big Day Studio:

Yow Siang was too good for us. His videography skill was strong and both of us liked his express highlight. Indeed very entertaining! Unfortunately, we could not take his package as it was very expensive. It really exceeded our budget, no matter how we combined photography package with his videography package. What I understand that he had increased his package to higher range.

Our fifth meet-up with Dreamcatcher Photography & Wow Media:

Ben was very good in photography. His photos were very similar to Fotowerke. Very sharp and clear. He was friendly and both of us did not know what to ask him because he had actually prepared FAQs for Brides and Grooms as reference.

Unfortunately, we could not take his package due to his partner, Daniel. His video was not that entertaining although acceptable. Although their package was within our budget, we would not bear to take Ben only. So we dropped the idea of getting his package.

Our sixth meet-up with Sundayz Photography:

Alex also had good skill in photography. His photos were very clear too. He also had contacts with videographer and had shown us a sample. We were fine with the work.

However both of us did not find the secure on him especially on the transportation. Most of the photographers we met, had their own transport. Our fear was when he take cab to bride's house and if along the way, met some traffic jam due to unforeseen circumstance, he could not do any back-up. I know it won't happen but most important is the security.

After all my opinions, hope it do help you.
Have fun searching for photography & videography package.
