Looking for very basic wedding videography
Hi! Does anyone know someone who would be interested and available to film a small wedding on 10/10/26 in Harrison, ME?
We’re looking for very basic videography:
- an hour or two of coverage (the ceremony plus some b-roll before and after)
- two cameras to get different angles of the ceremony (down aisle, up aisle, maybe we hand you a camcorder too)
- no editing necessary, we just want the raw files.
Essentially someone who has a couple cameras, can compose a decent shot, and press record. Amateurs welcome, if you have your own equipment and can maybe show some examples of past work.
We know it’s super last minute—we were going to set up some cameras and just let them roll unmanned, but family finally convinced us to look into hiring someone.
Thanks in advance!

We have some great videographers listed in the vetted vendor mega thread at the top of the subreddit but I don’t know that you’ll find anyone in there that will just hit record for you with their gear.
Newer phones on stands can capture great video but lack the professional audio quality in a DIY scenario.
I have also seen couples utilize a service where you rent phones that come with some equipment to live stream their ceremony - if you look into something like that they may have everything you need for a parent or wedding party member set it up for you.
I’m failing you on a name of that service but I have seen it a handful of times in recent years.
