I get asked all the time, how many hours of coverage do I need? Good question. So, start with the standard here, standard hour coverage, usually six or eight hours. Some weddings may only need two to four, some may need 10, some may need multiple days, it just varies depending on your event. But if I’m looking at the standard wedding, it’s usually, a standard full day wedding, it’s usually six or eight hours. Six, seven, eight or nine, but usually six or eight, and that usually gives you all the coverage you need. The biggest thing you have to figure out is what works for you, and I’m more than happy to help with this if you have any questions.

It just… you can really bring life to your video and photos when you take the time to actually learn either how to dance or a specific dance, specifically for your wedding day that’s unique to you.
