I loved this work you did!
I noticed you used the Atlas 30 more often than the FLT. Did you find the FLT too short for some of the shots or what was your thinking there?
I am trying to decide on which slider to purchase. I will be using it largely for wedding videography and need one that is capable of the run and gun style but with enough freedom to capture the beautiful sweeping movements that you captured. I would love to hear your thoughts.
Great work again

It’s seems this days that cinematic weddings are everywhere and for a good reason, they showcase the best day for a couple on the way they only can dream, with more great talents like Rebecka sharing their workflow, we all can learn a lot faster and raise the bar on our productions, i wish i can get at least the only glass they didn’t use on this wed, 24-70mm 2.8L. cheers and great job. you got a new fan here

Have to admit this has to be some of the best video work for weddings that I’ve seen. I’m just getting into shooting video and this definitely has me inspired.

Great Job on the video.

I was wondering how do you keep your Glidecam balanced while constantly switching lenses?

Even as a new wedding photographer and still learning, I agree with Rebecka. Its mighty hard to do what YOU want on YOUR time, it doesn’t work that way. At least for me. Its always GO GO GO!! I love the video and love your work, if I could do something like this for my clients, no doubt in my mind, i’d get flown all over the world for it. I love how crisp everything is and how smooth it is during transitions. Thanks for sharing your work with us.

A great piece of work. Anyone who has said anything negative about this production is someone who has never shot and edited a video using a DSLR. This is a beautifully crafted video.

I 100% agree with this. It’s really tough to get a lot of content and fast, and to be unique – you need an amazing team – no one person can do all of this by themselves. You can say that all you do is steadicam and slider shots, but really those are the best options available as apposed to going rogue with a shaky handheld rig, which should be, in my opinion, rarely used for a cinematic piece.

Good wedding videography is an art and very hard to come by. Well done video.

Lovely work! Not for everyone as said before but amazing nonetheless. I think the best compliment is that I have saved the link to (one day) show my wedding photographer. Thank you for sharing your beautiful work

Kasper a wedding is not a “photo shoot” in terms of time or control, the outdoor shots were completed in about 10-15mins of shared with the photographer, no assistants to hold reflectors/lights etc.

Weddings are often times “get away with as much as you can” run & gun situations. We basically have just a half-seconds time to think about (where, what, how) we are going to shoot before we actually take the shot. That is the exciting challenge of shooting weddings cinematically like this. If you can do this on a wedding day, you can do just about anything else.
