- How to Film a Wedding BY YOURSELF - A Solo Shooter's Guide
So many people look at filming a wedding by yourself as a daunting task, but with these simple tips and tricks, you'll be on your way to solo shooting a wedding by yourself in no time! Although many wedding videographers use two or even three shooters, the reality is that you can make high quality wedding videos by yourself, using only one camera. I've traveled the world shooting in the most incredible places and venues, and by the end of this video I hope you feel more confident in approaching weddings the way that I do when it comes to tackling a wedding day and you're the only shooters there!

Duuuude! How could I have lived without the trilens holder? :-O I guess you just changed my life, also I have not seen this anywhere else but your channel. Cheers mate!
Amazing resource man! Love these tips and the Lens Holster is an absolute game changer!
Great tutorial! Multi-cam ceremony, toasts and dance floor are a must.
As somebody who is a wedding photographer and videographer, I can’t tell you how frustrating it is to see the rare professional who only thinks about their work. That having been said, most people are super gracious and once you correct them a few times they’ll get into the flow of working with somebody else. Definitely looking into that lens holster - thanks!
All this is spot on!
Great tips and excellent presentation! Made me laugh that lens changing act. Illustrated the point perfectly.
Thank you very much for the shot list. I feel like it will help me tell the story much better.
The handheld point is so good. I started last wedding season into using the final for certain shots, then dropped it for a monopod. Now I’m leaving toward shooting handheld.
Thanks for the shot list.
Thanks for this video! I'm going to my 3rd wedding shoot tomorrow and going to use your shot list aside my own. Also the switching focal lengths is a good idea I need to do better at.
Super helpful! Love this content 🎉
With or without a second shooter, these are wonderful tips. I’d add a note about sound. Great audio is as equally important as the visual. Weather it is micing the groom or tapping in to the DJ’s sound board, you can also achieve that by arriving early. Keep up the great work man!
As a solo shooter myself i always love it to hear from others...encouraging! Even after over 5 years of doing it... :) Cheers!
Great, thx! Highly appreciate sharing your knowledge 😊
This is on point!
Just excellent advice, man. Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work! Shooting my 4th wedding tomorrow and leaving the gimbal home!! ;-)
This is great! I am trying to move on from gimbals in weddings, and trying to those more hard so this has been super helpful.
Great stuff!!!
Thanks for the shot list ! 😊
You're very welcome, Damian!
Great tips!
I shoot most everything on a tripod even when solo. Love the cinematic look it gives.
Good stuff my dude!
Dude. This helped me so much with my first Film!!
Mario Kart music for the WIN!!!!
Awesome tips! I've only shot a few weddings, but the beginning of this video where you were holding all the gear on your own resonates with me so much and made me laugh, knowing that's probably how I look every time I walk into a shoot! 😂
Thanks man! Hit me up on instagram if you need anymore help! @filmsbystanton
Dude...love this...i'm always looking for a 2nd that is reliable and decent but its so damm hard and stressful to find
I needed this so much.. my 1st wedding is tomorrow and I swear I was gonna be that guy with a gimbal all day.. Definitely gonna get a lotta handheld. Thanx!
There's a really really good video called: Gimbal VS Handheld - WHEN & WHY - Camera movement for CINEMATIC VIDEO....CZcamsr: Jacques Crafford. I can't even express how it important handheld is especially because a wedding is full of emotion. And he talks about feelings/emotion with visuals to show you comparisons.
Whats up Stanton ,
If you ever need a 2nd shooter, I’m your guy.
Great video btw. Helpful tips . Thanks for sharing. 🔥
alone ...so many angles?! .... RESPECT!
I would like to see how he did this. running?
Love the Lut in the wedding videos Do you sell them?
yes! stantongiles.shop/
With your C200 do you film in 1080 or 4K?
do you have a video of your rig? including your strap set up and monitor?
I think it’s buried somewhere on my patreon… isn’t there a handheld rig breakdown on this video? Maybe it’s on the gimble video?
How do you feel about using an Atomos Ninja V?
I want to learn how I can do a wedding by myself hopefully you can help me out.
Well Bro 😂 I stumbled across this video and went to the site to purchase with your Code and this is not available for L Mount 😂. Hilarious.
I guess us LUMIX Shooters aren’t interested with my 10 Lenses. Great idea though.
If we subscribe to your patreon, do we get to count ourselves as a student to get a discount with adobe?
I’m not 100% sure on that, it’s education you are paying for, so if that’s adobes only requirement then yes, but if they require a email verification that you’re a student, then maybe not
Its quicker to switch weapons then reloading
I need a link to the strap you use!
Will link tomorrow!
I second this! I'm guessing peak design but not entirely sure.
@@StantonGiles link?
@@StantonGiles forgot to link? 😅
@@arielreyes001 amzn.to/3Lw1T6b WHOOPS SORRY GUYS HERE IT IS
The link to the shotlist bro.. still has Lorem Ipsum writing on it. Definitely doesn't make me want to download
wait i wrote a super saracastic comment back then realized what you were saying. Appreciate this! Must have switched back because it for sure wasn't like this before. Thank you!
An even more controversial idea than handheld: for a faster focal length change, you could use a zoom...
2:53 THEY DON'T MAKE IT FOR L MOUNT.
You should never be switching lenses during a ceremony. Backpack or not. Pick a lens and make it work!
Thanks for the advice, but I completely, completely disagree! Hope your style works for you though!
@@StantonGiles you're switching lens you're missing shots. I think the ceremony is the one thing you shouldn't miss a single second of
you should watch some of my ceremony's if you think that's the case - I get more angles and shots by myself than most teams of videographers do. @@diceflawless9115
but can you fight a bear alone?
Only if I was shooting handheld
👎
Does some1 knows wich external monitor is he using??
Hey! It's the Small HD 5" Focus!
Great stuff!
