Question 1

What makes First Chapter Films different?

Accepted Answer

At First Chapter Films, we focus on quality over quantity. Every wedding is captured by a dedicated team, with a minimum of two team members present and only one wedding booked per day. This allows us to give your wedding our complete attention and capture every important moment from multiple perspectives.
The people you meet with before your wedding are the same people who will be there on the day capturing it. We don't outsource your wedding to random contractors or send unfamiliar faces in our place. As the owners and creatives behind First Chapter Films, we're personally invested in every wedding we film and photograph.
We also believe that every couple has a unique story to tell. Rather than creating cookie-cutter wedding films that all feel the same, we work closely with our couples to create something personal and meaningful. We encourage you to share your ideas, inspirations, and vision so we can craft a film that truly reflects your personalities and your wedding day.

Question 2

Do we get to meet before the big day?

Accepted Answer

Yes, absolutely.
We believe it’s important to connect before your wedding day so we can get to know you, understand your vision, and go through all the key details of your plans. This helps ensure everything runs smoothly and that we’re aligned on what matters most to you.
We’re happy to meet in person or via video call, whatever is easiest for you. It’s also a great opportunity to talk through your day, answer any questions, and make sure you feel comfortable with us before the big day arrives.

Question 3

Will we get a sneak peek, and can we request changes?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely.

We provide a sneak peek so you can relive some of your wedding moments soon after the day. Your preview will be shared via Vimeo, Google Drive, or YouTube depending on the project and what works best for delivery.

You’re also welcome to request changes. We include one round of revisions at no extra cost. After that, additional major changes may incur a fee, depending on the scope of the edit. Smaller adjustments, such as removing a single clip, adjusting timing, or minor text changes are generally not charged.

For both your film and photography, we approach edits with care to ensure everything feels natural and true to your day. Because of this, revision requests are usually focused on small refinements rather than major creative changes, helping us maintain the integrity of your final gallery and film while still making sure you’re happy with the result.

Question 4

How long does it take to receive our photos and video?

Accepted Answer

Your wedding photos and films are delivered in stages so you can relive your day as soon as possible.
We typically deliver a sneak peek and teaser first, followed by your full photo gallery and edited wedding film once the full editing process is complete.
Our editing process is careful and detailed, as we believe your memories deserve time and attention to be crafted properly rather than rushed. We aim for a delivery timeframe of 2–3 months for your full gallery and film, depending on the season and workload, and we’ll always keep you updated along the way so you know exactly what stage your wedding story is at.
The end result is a complete collection of both photos and films that tell your story in a timeless and cinematic way.

Question 5

How do you work alongside our photographer on the day?

Accepted Answer

We see photography and videography as equally important parts of your wedding story, and we work closely alongside your photographer to ensure everything runs smoothly on the day.
Over the years, we’ve built strong working relationships with a number of photographers and are always happy to collaborate with your chosen team. If you already have a photographer booked, we’ll connect with them ahead of time where possible to go through timelines, key moments, and how we can best work together without getting in each other’s way.
We also offer combined photo and video packages with select photographers we regularly work with, which can make the planning process even easier.
Our goal is always the same: to work as a team so your day is captured beautifully from every angle without anything feeling staged or interrupted.
