sharing my bad experience ...

about wedding videography and photography and makeup artist

i think mine was bad.  so many pictures were missing:
1. picture of the bouquet
2. jewelry for the wedding dress
3. gold jewelry for the red chinese traditional gown
4. bride and groom only in chinese traditional gown
5. bride in chinese traditional gown with her whole family is missing, only the parents
6. head to toe shot of the bride in wedding dress was so blurry. can't see the wedding dress at all. the background is white!!! only 4 were taken and they're all bad
7. only 3 pictures of the bride walking out. i thought they'd do continuous multiple snap shots as the bride walks out...
8. multiple pictures of the groom putting the ring into the bride's finger but none of them can see the ring
9. many pictures were taken from the bottom up. seeing people's double chin and nose
10. wedding cake eating is blocked with the hand in the face
11. when doing those 'stand still and pose' photos, didn't teach us how to pose. turned out weird like big-small eye, high-low eyebrow, wrinkles in the forehead... those photos are just wasted
12. took too many pictures of the babies. should focus more on the bride and groom more
13. photos after the ceremony took much longer than needed. had a lot of down time/waiting time.

i suggest you make a list and put it on paper saying exactly what you want to be included. for example, when you're in the red gown, you want to have A then B then C. i regret so much that i didn't make a list....

i thought i'd be okay by picking a safe company. this company was mentioned in this lyk website. it wasn't the cheapest type either. but i guess it was bad luck for me. the photography isn't a newbie, yet it still turned out bad. i'm so sad...

the videography part wasn't any better. the tea ceremony was so confusing and it turned out bad. the videographer left early too and kept saying this and that won't turn out good or can't see so didn't bother videotape certain parts! again, i didn't pick someone cheap or inexperience but it still turned out bad....

my makeup artist was 15 minutes late. when we called to find how what's going on, didn't bother answer our call. it was in a rush with the hair and the makeup... and the hair was not the same as the trial session look but i had no choice but to accept because we were running late. and the makeup didn't last long either..... again, this artist was mentioned in the lyk website before a couple of times too. and i thought i'd be safe to pick this makeup artist but no...

maybe it's just me.... bad luck with video/photo/makeup...
there is nothing i can do now...

Why make so much fuss about the wedding? Shouldn't the couple pay more attention to the wedding guests and then their future married life?

I guess you haven't get married yet...you probably just don't feel it...

Wedding costs a lot and it's one of life time experience (at least, we all "wish" it's one of a time thing). Videograph and photo are the "memory" and both matters a lot to the bride. And of course makeup also matters a lot....every girl would like to be the princess in the big day...

So I feel for you! Mind give some "hint" of which company is that?

On the bright side, many of the guests may have good equipment and you will still get some good shots of the big day. And to be honest, those wedding pictures and video...I haven't touched it after a while... especially the video...

Mind to hint us which companies are they?

i think you should tell us their names so that we can be aware
anyways.. did you get two photographers? if so, that would be a very big problem!

Yes it's always good idea to get more than one photographers or video-graphers.

No matter how they took the photos, people will complain.  Instead of making long list of what they should take, trust their instincts and hire two so you would most likely not to loose any moments.

I can feel for you..... probably they made you feel very unhappy so looks like you are starting to pick on them la. For example when groom put the ring on brides finger, you can never see the ring ga because groom's hand will definitely block the ring UNLESS you hire someone you will ask you to stop and pose angle purposely so that the ring will show la! Did you hire a photographer that does posing most of the time? Thanks for sharing your experience, now brides will know they need to research alot when looking for a MATCHING photographer.

BTW just found out if you post a thread anonymously, you cannot see it when 搜尋新帖
