    I wish I could afford it. But I considered photography a need

    My FH has not left this up for discussion... it’s a “need to have”. But, to be fair, he’s a videographer, hence the importance to him.

    Nice to have, I'm hoping to just have one of our groomsman set up his camera in a good spot to see from and just have a good raw video.

    Nice to have! I wasn’t able to find someone in time that wasn’t super expensive. I know I’ll regret it after.

    This is so beautiful. What a wonderful way to honor that memory and I know your daughter will appreciate it. I lost my father at age 6 and I hardly have any memories of him but the few I have and the handful of photos I keep so close to my heart.

    Need to have for us! We love movie and we want to be able to remember it for the rest of our lives, not just the images, but the emotion in our voices, the vows, the toasts. All of it.

    It's a must! My FH is a camera assistant for television so it's high on his priority list.

    We are doing the first look so for us it is a need, because videos are really beautiful memory to have. Not evething can be captured on the photos. But that's just us Smiley smile

    Most people I know that didn’t have one say it is their biggest regret because they can’t re-live the day through pictures. I am having one, because a video is so much more fun than pictures you’re going to do nothing with. Just my personal opinion though 😊
