This was my first time filming a wedding. It was very laid back, I had just one camera and unfortunately just one mic. I had a little bit of a hard time laying it out for the first time, it's a little different than editting bmx videos as i usually do. In the end I was pretty happy with it and am looking foward to filming some larger weddings and maybe having some additional cameras.

Wow that looks great! are you using the 35mm adapter? are you using a glidecam? what settings were you shooting in? this looks great with one camera, the sky would be the limit if you had one or two more, keep up the great work!
 
Thanks for the Compliments. I don't have a 35mm adapter as they're pretty expensive, but i do indeed have a glidecam that I love. I shot this in 720 at 30PN fps.
 
I liked the use of a glidecam, very smooth and captured your subjects well. For a first video, it is very well put together.

My thoughts are that the clips were too long in some areas such as an alternate cut of the groom waiting and then following the bride as you did.

If you have a lav for the minister, it would have helped with the sound in my opinion or if you could have adjusted the levels in post.

A small light in the darker areas would help a lot and the small LED hotshoe lights are under $100.

Get some more b roll or cuts to keep the story going.

Loved the song in the intro! You did such a nice job and your clients should be proud.

Cheers
