Re: Videographer Question

you can call Patken and see what they can offer you... my video with them was a little cheaper but I didn't have all that you want...

Re: Videographer Question

Sounds like a good deal, did you love the sample?

Re: Videographer Question

I did really like the sample. Does anyone know of the prices and what's included in the packages for Mittermax? That's who our photogrpaher recommends...

Re: Videographer Question

We are weekend Twins!!! I think it is a good price for what you want but you have to go with someone who you like.

Re: Videographer Question

Try Ralph from High Energy Djs...i am using his camera man Dave and he charges that price (or a little less) and includes everything you listed. My sister got her video done by Ralph and dave as well!!

Hi smilealways!
I'm also a Twelfth Night bride...love them!
We went with Bliss, but this is what Mittermax offers (by the way, Mittermax and Bliss are very similar in style, Mittermax is less $$):

$1600
One location up to 7 hours
2 edited DVD's with motion menus & up to 12 chapters
Black and white opening
Recap ending
2 VHS tapes fully edited & 1 DVD of the unedited footage

$1700
Same as above except for 10 hours

$2200
Bride's house, ceremony, park and reception up to 10 hours
2 edited DVD's w/motion menus & up top 12 chapters, black and white opening, bride, groom & love story sequences, recap ending
2 VHS tapes fully edited & 1 DVD of the unedited footage

We received the above with our sample but I know Travis is working on new pricing and packaging. It can't hurt to give him a call.

Hope I helped...
Best wishes!

Re: Videographer Question

I just wanted to thank somethingblu because I was just signing on to type out all of that info for you, but she beat me to it!

The only thing that I could add is that for the 1700 package, it includes two locations- like if your wedding/reception were in different spots.

We are using Mittermax because I just fell in love with his style. I am using Ralph from High Energy too, and his video guy was good if you are looking for something basic with baby pictures... I think- don't hold me to it! I liked mittermax because it had more of a 'movie' feel. In the edited DVD you have up to 12 chapters- and he does this beautiful black and white opening where it is a recap of the ceremony (short) and when you kiss it turns into full color in a ripple effect- it is very moving!!!
But, if you aren't into something artsy, and don't care about getting all of the raw footage (they ususally don't include it or charge extra) I am sure you can find someone else you like! He was the first sample I saw- and even though I saw 4 or 5 others, I chose him :)

Re: Videographer Question

Try giving Frank from LCA studios a call. I booked with them after I saw there demo. Just loved their work. He is also a vendor on the site, check him out. FM me for more info if you like.

Good luck
