Are Vendors Trying to Scare You Into Picking Them? Top Myths We’re Ready to Bust!

1. “I filmed at your venue before”

This one’s a biggie. Vendors might try to convince you that experience at a particular venue is the secret sauce for getting great shots. But here’s the thing—what truly matters is the photographer’s or videographer’s skills and their ability to capture the magic of your day. We’ve filmed weddings in over 6 countries, and no matter the venue, we always do our homework. A good photographer or videographer knows how to make any space look amazing with the right angles, lighting, and creativity.

2. “It’s better to pick one team—photographers and videographers from different teams don’t collaborate well”

Another one we hear a lot. But let me tell you—good professionals know how to work together. Sure, we’ve had our fair share of tricky situations, but more often than not, when we’re paired with fellow experts, it’s magic! We all respect each other’s space and vision, which allows us to work as a team, bounce ideas around, and make the day even better. You shouldn’t feel like you’re stuck with one team if that’s not what you love! The key is finding the right fit.

3. “Have you filmed a Jewish wedding before?”

Haha, this is always a fun one! Yes, we’ve filmed a Jewish wedding and are proud of it, but here’s the truth: every wedding is unique. Whether it’s a Jewish wedding, an Indian wedding, or anything in between, the key is understanding the traditions and paying extra attention to the special moments that matter to you. So, no matter the type of wedding, it’s about being aware and capturing what makes your day stand out.

Here’s the bottom line: At the end of the day, if you love the style of a photographer or videographer, and you vibe with their personality, that should be the #1 deciding factor. Of course, things like reliability, contracts, and all the business stuff are important too, but trust me, this is your day! Don’t settle for something you don’t love just because it feels “safe.” Go with the team that makes you feel excited and confident about your wedding memories.
