Q1: What are the latest trends in wedding videography?

Ocala Estate: Wedding trends are always evolving. What are some of the latest trends you're seeing in wedding videography for 2024 and 2025?

Brave Stag: As we look ahead to 2024 and 2025, we’re noticing a significant shift in wedding videography trends that emphasizes authenticity and connection. Couples are increasingly seeking to capture the raw and organic moments that make their day truly special. Rather than focusing solely on extravagant receptions or high-energy parties, there’s a growing desire to document the heartfelt emotions and genuine interactions that occur during the ceremony and intimate moments throughout the day.


Q2: How can couples pick the best videographer for their wedding?

Ocala Estate: Choosing the right videographer is crucial. What advice do you have for couples looking to find the perfect videographer for their big day?

Brave Stag: Choosing the right videographer for your wedding is a crucial decision that can significantly influence how you remember your special day. One of the best ways to start is by reviewing portfolios and watching sample films; the work will often speak for itself. Look for videographers whose storytelling style resonates with you, reflecting the emotions and moments you want captured. However, beyond the visuals, personality plays a vital role. Your videographer will be there for one of the most intimate days of your life, making it essential to feel comfortable with them. We always encourage our couples to set up a FaceTime call, a phone conversation, or even a face-to-face meeting with us if possible. This connection helps ensure we fully understand your vision and allows you to feel our genuine passion for capturing your story. We’ve built our reputation on kindness and going the extra mile for our couples. We are dedicated to not just documenting your day, but also to creating a warm and enjoyable experience. We want you to feel at ease, knowing we care about making your wedding uniquely yours. So, when selecting a videographer, remember to find someone who resonates with your style and helps you feel comfortable, allowing you to focus on celebrating your love.


Q3: Why is having videography just as important as having a photographer?

Ocala Estate: Many couples consider photography a must-have, but might see videography as optional. Why do you believe videography is just as important?

Brave Stag: Videography captures the complete essence of your wedding day in a way that still images simply can't. Photographers excel at capturing beautiful moments, but videography allows for you to see those in-between moments—the laughter, the silly jokes, the corny dances, and the heartfelt words exchanged. These fleeting instances often hold the truest emotions and memories that might otherwise be forgotten over time. We’re thankful our team offers both photography and videography. We relish the opportunity to weave together the narrative of your day, complete with all the small yet significant connections that define your love story. We want you to relive not just the structured parts of your celebration, but also the genuine, spontaneous interactions that make your wedding uniquely yours.


Q4: What special things do you do to make your videos emotional for the couples?

Ocala Estate: Your videos are known for being incredibly emotional. Can you share some of the techniques you use to achieve this?

Red Stag: We don’t believe in fabricating emotions or staging huge scenes. Instead, we focus on being present and letting those genuine moments unfold naturally. Brave Stag Productions is all about capturing the real, raw moments that make your wedding day an adventure! Whether it’s the heartfelt laughs, happy tears during vows, or a spontaneous dance-off with your friends, we’re there to capture it all. Your wedding day is a unique journey, and we want to document every part of it, from the quiet, intimate moments to the wild celebrations. Our goal is to reflect your personalities and the adventure you’re embarking on together, giving you a film that truly represents your love story. We want you to relive all the emotions and beautiful memories that come from simply being yourselves while you embrace this exciting new chapter. 


Q5: How do you tell a story through your wedding videos?

Ocala Estate: Storytelling is a big part of your videography style. How do you weave a narrative into your wedding videos?

Brave Stag: Telling stories is at the heart of what we do. As a husband and wife team, we approach each wedding with a unique perspective. Our different viewpoints allow us to capture a variety of moments, from the grand to the subtle, ensuring that every aspect of your day is represented. We start by getting to know you as a couple—your love story, your personalities, and your vision for the day. This connection is essential. Knowing your journey helps us anticipate the moments that matter most, allowing us to tell your story authentically. On your wedding day, we focus on the details—the excited glances, the heartfelt vows, and the laughter shared with friends and family. We see your wedding as an adventure, and we're there to document every twist and turn. Our goal is to capture not just the events as they unfold, but the emotions and connections that make your story unique. Back in the office we weave these moments together to create a film that reflects your day beautifully. We combine audio, music, and visuals from all angles to create a narrative that tells your love story. Our aim is to not just show what happened, but to evoke the feelings and memories tied to those moments. In the end, your film becomes a heartfelt keepsake—a way for you to relive the adventure you embarked on together, reflecting your personalities and the love you share.
