Elopement videography refers to the practice of professionally filming and documenting intimate, small-scale weddings or marriage ceremonies, often taking place in remote or unconventional locations.

Hiring a professional videographer ensures that your elopement is captured with artistic skill and technical expertise. Professionals are equipped to handle lighting, composition, and sound, resulting in a polished final product that preserves your cherished memories.

The cost of elopement videography varies based on factors such as location, duration, and the videographer’s experience. On average, couples can expect to pay between $3,000 to $8,000 for comprehensive coverage that includes editing and a final video.

Photographers and videographers have different priorities throughout an elopement day and many times those can conflict. Videographers want lots of movement and to have the ability to hold a shot to capture the intricate details that are happening in the moment while a photographer is trying to get variety by making small adjustments and moving around the couple. Often if a photographer used to working alone, they may be focused on specific poses where the hands are “just right” and these adjustments, while sometimes necessary, can look awkward in video because the movement that occurs is with the couple looking at the photographer, taking guidance. We don’t do traditional static posing (with the exception of a few shots for your parents mantel) which introduces natural movement. We’ve also been working together for over 5 years and are incredibly familiar with what each other need while working together.
