I've been researching this for months and I seriously cannot decide on a videographer. I have looked at/talked to all the ones mentioned frequently on the boards (AJ, GT, Fade to Black, etc), but still can't come to any conclusions. Here's what I'm looking for:
- At least 10 hours of coverage - Highlight reel and edited video - Raw footage at no extra cost - Turnaround time less than 6 months - Some 'cinematography', glidecam work - Unobtrusive... no big cameras or crazy lights - Not a big company - hopefully an independent owner - Approx. $2,000-$2,500
Any suggestions? I would really just like to get this booked already!
Thanks :)

I'm not sure what AJ's rates for next year but we're getting all the things you mentioned in that budget you have for our wedding this October. He also uses canon 5d which is powerful to get the shots you want but def wont be distracting. I do believe he has limited dates available for 2013...

Have you tried Chirs Lobello? He is a little more then what you are looking to spend but he does great work. I'm using Sunnyville, who is also amazing, but more expensive.

AJ is worth every penny and more. He is absolutely amazing to work with and in a class of his own.

Classic Video is what you are looking for! They work from their house, have chapters, are not intrusive at all etc...
