Not everyone feels like a natural in front of the camera, and that’s okay!
Here are some tips to help you feel comfortable and relaxed, so your wedding film captures your true personalities.
1. Meet Your Cinematographer Ahead of Time
Having a chance to meet your cinematographer and talk about your vision helps build a level of comfort. At Aventura Films, we make sure to get to know each couple so that on the day, it feels like you’re working with a friend.
2. Focus on Each Other, Not the Camera
One of the easiest ways to feel natural on camera is to focus on your partner, not the lens. Laugh, hold hands, share a kiss, and just be in the moment together. The more you tune into each other, the more natural and genuine your interactions will look.
3. Practice a Few Poses
Practicing a couple of poses can help you feel more confident on the day. Just remember, we’ll guide you and capture candid moments too, so it’s not all about posing.
4. Take Breaks to Breathe and Relax
It’s a big day, and nerves are natural. We encourage couples to take a few moments to breathe and enjoy themselves. Those little pauses often lead to the best, most relaxed footage.
5. Trust the Process
Remember, we’re here to make you look and feel amazing! Trusting your cinematographer’s guidance can ease nerves and allow you to enjoy the day without worrying about the camera. At Aventura Films, our goal is to capture your love as naturally as possible.
With a little trust and these simple tips, you’ll look back on your wedding film and see your authentic selves shining through.
