Around this time last year Canon and Nikon came out with the first generation of hybrid professional still cameras that also capture HD video in stunningly high quality. The cameras were great but still had some usability issues. This week Canon announced its' second generation hybrid the 7D. The 7D is the perfect camera for the multimedia services that I want to give my clients. I expect to get my 7D by the beginning of October at the latest, and I will use it to offer video vignettes with any photography service.
Video vignettes will be key moments from your wedding captured on HD video. The vows, kiss, first dance, Father/Daughter, cake cutting and other highlights will be captured and edited together to make a short highlight video. I expect to deliver 1 to 4 minutes of video for every 1 hour I am at a wedding. For a limited time I am offering this service for free to anyone who books my storyteller package for $2495. This means that you will get two photographers including myself, beautiful photos on disc, an engagement session with sign in frame, custom prints, a huge 12 by 15" album, and a beautiful HD highlight video on DVD-R (for the computer). Your photos and video will also be available online for viewing. All of this for a great value. You can also add a Bluray HD DVD for $300. Bluray is the only way to see your HD content on your HD television. If you want a standard definition DVD as well it will be available for $150. If you do not want to book my storyteller package you may add this service for $400 to any other photo package.
The quality of video these camera produce is stunning and very natural. See a short film shot entirely on the first generation Canon camera: "Reverie"
This service is not intended to replace my traditional videography services. In fact I still recommend you consider booking my videography service in addition to this service. A dedicated videographer will document your entire day and shoot hours of video. These new cameras are best suited for capture short clips of no more than several minutes at a time. We are utilizing the camera for what we think are its' strength and offering traditional videography as well. If you are happy with a highlight video that captures a few key moments from your day than the video vignettes is a perfect fit for you. If you want a long video that includes your entire ceremony than traditional videography is the right fit- and please also consider the vignettes as a beautiful add on.
