FREQUENTLY ASKED "WHYs?":

Why do I need more than one videographer and one camera?
We ALWAYS use at least two videographers and three cameras for every event, no matter which package you book.  There is no possible way that only one camera manned by one videographer can capture every angle, every emotion all at the same time.  It is impossible for one videographer with one camera to be in two places at once...for instance, filming the groom's reaction upon seeing his bride for the first time while at the same time filming the bride coming down the aisle?!?  JJP Storyteller never relies on simply one camera to tell the many sides of your storybook day.

Why can't I just have my uncle/college roommate/neighbor film my wedding on their home camcorder?
Weddings are expensive, there is no doubt about that.  And often times, brides and grooms make the mistake of thinking they can save money by relying on a friend of the family to film the big day.  But if you're already spending the money to make your wedding day an unforgettable moment, don't you want to make sure you have it captured on film to be treasured and cherised forever?  The most common comment from brides/grooms after the wedding day is "It all happened so fast...it's all a blur!"  JJP Storyteller helps you to rewind back so you can enjoy each and every moment of the biggest day of your life.

Why would I want a custom DVD of my wedding day?
When you book with JJP Storyteller, your custom DVD will typically start with a "Dating Story" photo montage of the bride & groom.  Depending on the package you choose, your story could then highlight the bride getting dressed before the ceremony.  The ceremony will be filmed documentary-style (nothing is left out or condensed) using three cameras and wireless microphones.  After the "I Do's," we could show highlights of your photo shoot (depending on the location) and the cocktail reception.  Your reception would be filmed documentary-style--the only part that might be condensed would be the guests dancing which would be edited down to a 3-4 minute highlight reel.  At the end of the DVD, we include a highlight recap (set to the song of your choice) that looks back at the key moments of the day.

Why should I hire JJP Storyteller Productions?
We are not a major studio that churns out formulaic wedding videos every week.  We typically book no more than one wedding a month...that way, we can dedicate the time and the energy to making your story one-of-a-kind.  JJP Storyteller was founded and is currently run by a woman...someone who has dreamed about her own wedding day since she was three years old, someone who knows what is like to plan and live out (and film) her own dream wedding story, someone who understands the importance and the magnitude of the Big Day. We are also a family-run business...we do not hire freelancers to help film your wedding.  When you hire JJP Storyteller, you know exactly who you are inviting to be a part of your wedding day.
