HOW WOULD YOU BEST DESCRIBE YOUR STYLE?
We create photos films that capture people's and places emotional attachments. We want to perpetuate each moment in memories crafted with love. All in an unobtrusive and honest approach.
In essence, we don't dictate or direct but instead observe to discreetly cover events as they happen. We film your day as it naturally unfolds, capturing real moments and creating a timeless record of your day.
HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN A WEDDING PROFESSIONAL?
We've been full-time wedding videographer's since 2017, shooting between 15 and 20 weddings a year. We've documented weddings of most faiths and cultures and have worked in hundreds of different locations and venues, and across the globe!
SHOULD I ADD A SECOND VIDEOGRAPHER?
More comprehensive coverage of the wedding with more angles and moments. Ideal for weddings above 120 people to ensure greater consistency and depth of work. It is also recommended in case there are multiple locations involved.
WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO FILM ?
WILL I SEE EVERY MOMENT?
We capture all the important steps of the day, according to our vision and without full/exhaustive coverage of any moment. If there is any special moment that you want to be captured/recorded in a more exhaustive way, you must give advance notice and may be subject to additional costs (ex. speeches, votes, ceremony film).
HOW MANY HOURS WILL YOU BE WITH US?
We will be with you on the wedding day between 5 and 14 hours (consecutive / maximum) depending upon the service you choose. The start and end time will depend on the moments you like to see captured.
DO YOU DO ENGAGEMENT SHOOTS (AKA PRE WEDDING SHOOTS)?
Yes, we do. Roughly half our couples every year decide to add an Engagement Shoot to their film package. An opportunity to connect as a couple. A moment for just the two of you, where you'll also understand how I work before the big day... and help you overcome any apprehensions about being in front of the camera.

CAN WE MAKE CHANGES TO THE FILM?
We accept small suggestions that do not jeopardize our style and the final quality of the work. We believe that you will hire us already knowing and enjoying what we do and how we do it.
CAN WE CHOOSE THE MUSIC FOR THE MOVIES?
The songs are chosen based on the mood and history of the film. In addition, due to legal copyright issues, this choice is at our discretion within what is presented in our portfolio. You can share a list of favorites on spotify or youtube to “inspire” us
DO YOU USE DRONE (AERIAL VIDEO IMAGES)?
We have the possibility to capture aerial images. The registration of images is also dependent on authorization and weather conditions. Key moments of the day are not filmed, preferring to use the drone for some images the venues or surroundings where most of the event will be recorded. We do not charge any extra. The criterion for using the drone, as well as the images captured, is ours. If you want to shoot a special event or part of one, we can provide a quote.
PAYMENT CONDITIONS? HOW CAN WE RESERVE THE DATE?
Upon signing the contract, you must pay 30% of the total amount. Up to two months before the wedding, an additional 50% will be paid and the remaining 20% will be paid on the day we deliver the work(s) in digital version.

All extra trips carried out by Makemyday, necessary for the execution of the service, outside this radius and not initially contemplated, will imply an increase of €0.40/KM, which will be paid upon final payment (on delivery of the contracted service).

DO YOUR PRICES INCLUDE VAT?
Yes, all prices include all taxes
IS A MEAL NECESSARY DURING THE WEDDING DAY?
It will be necessary to guarantee the hot meal and drink at the Makemyday team's table, preferably in the same space where the party takes place to guarantee the recording of the most important moments. Not possible, as close as possible. The Makemyday team present at the event will stop for an hour. This break is usually made during the dinner of the bride and groom and guests.
