Wedding Films
Your wedding day is a day you’ll never forget. The best possible way to relive that day is through a wedding film. BPope Productions is dedicated to make sure your story gets told in a unique way. I aim for a “cinematic” style that is then color-graded in post-production to a film-like look. We focus on capturing every detail, every moment, and every emotion of the day! BPope Productions unlike most professional videographers who use broadcast video cameras, I shoot on a large sensor interchangeable lens system. This allows me to provide you with the latest in video recording technology as well as a discipline in cinematography.
All of our footage is HD 1080P or 4K Ultra-HD, cinematic documentary style, and clear audio. We use professional UHF Wireless Lavalier Mic System during the ceremony. We also interview the bride & groom during preparations to help tell the story of how you met, how you got engaged, and a special message.

What about sound?
Sound is 50% of of your film. I use professional UHF wireless lav mics for the groom & officiant during the ceremony. I also use professional shotgun mics to capture sound throughout the day.
Why have my wedding in 4K?
4K video is 4x the size of regular 1080P video and delivers 8mp image compared to HD’s 2mp image. You can fit four 1080P images inside one 4K image. The differences are tremendous.
One last pretty amazing feature of shooting your wedding video in 4K UltraHD is that you can grab a still frame from the video and PRINT IT!. The resolution is so big that PRINTS (up to 16 x 20, no resolutions loss) can be made from the video! You could then just have your wedding captured in 4K and not hire a separate wedding photographer.
Do you have sample wedding videos online?
Yes, view my entire portfolio on Vimeo site here.
Is there any hidden cost?
Yes, shipping of hard drives, sd cards, usb drives, or photo albums will have a small shipping fee. Travel cost will be added outside of Catawba County.
What's your policy regarding deposits?
Here’s the low down on deposits. They are non-refundable should you and your soon to be spouse choose to cancel our services for whatever reason, its pretty standard in the business and normal within the wedding industry. This could include choosing another vendor, canceling the wedding altogether and the like.
That being said, we do extend a full refund – should we, the vendor, for whatever reason have to cancel on your wedding day film. In the last 8 some odd years of doing wedding videos, we have never had to cancel on anyone, ever! But should we have too for reasons beyond our control, we will gladly refund your deposit. Weddings can be an expensive adventure and we want your wedding day to be fun and memorable, after all your getting married!
Can you include DVDs and Blu-Rays without charging tax?
Many videographers and photographers are unaware of tax law. Anytime physical media is exchanged sales tax must be charged on the full package. This also includes a drive for raw footage or files.
Do you have insurance?
Yes! I carry we full-liability insurance for live event productions, aerial drone/UAV, and for weddings.
When will I get my final product?
There is a 4-8 week turnaround after the wedding day. During busy times, it could be up to 8-10 weeks. We put a lot of time into editing and want to take the time to make your film look (and sound) flawless! In the meanwhile you’ll have a sneak peak to hold you over!
