Wedding & Event Photography and Cinematography

How GI.EVENTS can help with Photography & Cinematography

Photographs and films are what families return to for years, so it helps to be specific about what matters before anyone is booked. Do you want candid moments or formal family portraits, a short highlight film or full ceremony coverage, drone shots where permitted, same-day edits? GI.EVENTS helps you define coverage, formats and delivery expectations clearly, so you can compare photographers and filmmakers on the same terms.

• Writing a shot list of rituals, family groupings and moments you do not want missed
• Deciding between candid, traditional and cinematic coverage for each function
• Clarifying deliverables such as albums, edited images, highlight films and full-length videos
• Checking venue permissions for drones, lighting rigs and filming in religious spaces
• Comparing quotations on equal terms, including team size, hours and delivery timelines

What to share in your brief

• Functions, dates and expected coverage hours
• Preferred photography and video style
• Deliverables you expect, such as albums or films
• Any family members or moments to prioritise

Common questions

How long does it usually take to receive edited photos and films?

Delivery timelines vary widely between teams and depend on the number of functions, editing style and album production. It is important to agree timelines in writing before booking. We encourage asking each photographer for their expected schedule and what happens if it changes.

Is drone photography allowed at every venue?

No. Drone use depends on local regulations, venue policy and the location's sensitivity, such as areas near airports or religious sites. Permission should be checked in advance. Where drones are not allowed, photographers can often suggest other ways to capture wide views.
