About Us
At Capital Videography, we love our work and it shows.
We've been filming weddings in the Capital District since 1985, and
hundreds of married couples count a wedding video from Capital
Videography among their most prized possessions.
Here's what we believe:
• We shoot what happens. We don't pose the bride and groom.
• We're there for it all. Having two videographers operate two
separate cameras allows us to get shots others can't -- for example, cutting to
close-ups during the ceremony, filming the bridal party just before the
announcements, and filming your guests at the same time as we get all of
your first dance.
• We stay out of the way. Our clients often tell us that they don't
see us all day, and that's one of the best compliments we can get.
• We shoot to be the best of both worlds by combining real-time
footage with artistic montage sequences. We keep it real, while making your
day look like a movie.
We have experience shooting Catholic, Protestant, Jewish, Hindu, and
non-denominational weddings in spaces as varied as churches, halls, backyards,
and gardens.
We use digital 3-chip cameras which capture stunning color, clarity and
detail—right down to the skin tones and tears. In our editing studio, we
use sophisticated digital technology to masterfully piece together your
day, providing polished, professional results you just can’t get from a regular
camcorder.
Although good equipment is vitally important, it is what we are able to do
with this equipment that sets us apart from the crowd. We’re committed to
pouring our heart and soul into every video we produce—dedicated to creating
a work of art that you will be proud of. From the moment we arrive at the
bride’s house to film her preparation to the moment we leave the reception,
our goal is to help you remember every moment of your wedding day years into
the future.
To see what we can do for you and your fiancé, check out our video samples
on this website – and then call Rich at 783-5328. We'll be happy to send you
a demo DVD or set up a meeting to talk.
Sincerely,
The Capital Videography team --
Richard Dietlein, Michael Dietlein, and
Karen Osborne.
