Working with Photographers & Videographers

Working together with The Photographer & Videographer

Making the wedding run seamless is a hard task when the DJ , videographer, & photographer all have jobs to do. TEAMWORK and COMMUNICATION are the main keys to keep the event running smoothly and on time. Coordinating activities through communicating with each other will assure the highest quality from each service. Here are some tips to help you:

1. Meet and Coordinate Make it a point to introduce yourself when you see the videographer and or the photographer. Trad cards with them and take a few minutes to discuss the special events involved, such as the time of the introductions, cake cutting ceremony, and garter & bouquet toss.
2. Communication is the key Disc Jockeys must be aware of the need for the videographer and photographer to prepare for each special event. Give them enough time so that everything can be captured as it is happening. They will be able to take memorable action shots if they know when you are planning dances or activities such as the cupid shuffle, chicken dance, item pass, or multiplication dance.
3. Always give warning & check  5 to 10 minutes before you do any special song or activity make sure you inform not only the Banquet manager but the videographer & photographer as well. Just before you start an important ceremony like the cake, make sure they are both in the room or hold it off until you can find them.
4. Don’t Rush Disc Jockeys must watch to make sure the photographer has taken all of the required shots before moving to the next song or activity. For example, wait for the bride & groom to kiss at the conclusion of the cake cutting ceremony, or ask your photographer if it is ok to throw the Garter or Bouquet.
