from the photographer
photo and film with Embellished
Design led weddings deserve a few minutes of the finished room before guests come in. Ask the planner to hold the doors for me so the tables, the flowers and the light can be photographed and filmed exactly as they were designed.
from the photographer
photo and film By Level Of Help
General guidance from the camera side of the day, for the kinds of help Embellished lists. It applies to any planner offering the same level.
With Full Planning
A full planner writes the timeline months ahead, which is the right moment to give photo and film their own lines. Send your planner the sunset time for your date, the list of family photographs and how long you want for portraits, and the schedule gets built around the light instead of squeezed into it.
With Month Of Coordination
A month of coordinator takes your plan and turns it into one schedule for every vendor. Hand over your photo and film times at the first meeting. The coordinator is the person who keeps the twenty quiet minutes for portraits from disappearing when the toasts run long.
With A Design Led Planner
When the planner is also the designer, ask to see the floor plan and the lighting plan before the day. Candles, uplights and where the head table sits all change how the room looks on camera, and a few minutes in the empty room before guests arrive is when the details get photographed.
Give your planner the sunset time at the first meeting. Everything else can be built around it.

Can Vitor photograph and film a wedding Embellished plans?

from the photographer
who wrote This Guide
I am Vitor Lindo. I have photographed and filmed 450 weddings in 14 years, about 400 of them here in the Lowcountry, from my studio at 1918 Howard Street in Savannah.
Photography and film are available together or separately, with one team planning both. That means one set of blocks on your planner's timeline, and nobody standing in the other one's shot.
