Kauai Video Productions

As producers and directors with 30+years of feature film and TV experience at our helm, with a wedding video portfolio  since 2007, with a BAFTA award for editing, you'll be hard pressed to find a video production outfit in Kauai with more skill and more experience. 

When you choose Kauai Video Productions rest assured you will be receiving a stylized digital 35mm video (not regular video) on DVD or Blu-ray. You'll see appropriate usage of black and white and sepia shots in a skillful and artistic telling of your wedding day.

You will NOT SEE cheesy video wipes  or boring slow motion shots of walking couples—a style overused by so many inexperienced or old-fashioned videographers. You will not see flat image video.  Rather you will see rich textured digital cinema.

We make certain that each of our wedding films is unique—you will not see any cookie cutter type wedding video in our portfolio. 

We love atmospheric capture and minutiae, things not all eyes will see, knowing that once tailored into the finished wedding video all eyes will be touched.

We film with multiple cameras so that gone-in-a-blink moments can be filmed from more than one perspective.  

We like to seek out the unusual and integrate it in the video—and because we film with multiple cameras (film-style packages only) we are much more likely to hone in on those special moments.

We take the editing of each event film as if it were a feature film, neither skimping on time or effort, and as our background is theatrical films, we know what we’re talking about.  

We could go on, but there's an old British proverb: The proof of the pudding is in the eating. So take a bite, I mean take a look at some of our videos...

Why choose a professional videographer... 

In this age of portable communication devices that are capable of producing great looking video, what's the point of hiring a professional to video your wedding day when you can just tell guests, "pull out your phones and shoot like crazy?"

The answer in two words: professional continuity. While the iPhone crowd will probably capture some outstanding video for you, large sections of your wedding ceremony will either be missing or the video will show keepsake moments framed for shame, meaning:  terrible composition, portrait (long) framing, fingers in the frame, shaky out-of-focus camera-work, just unusable stuff. Your pre-ceremony shots will be even more lacking. 

Having uncle Bill shoot video for you with his DSLR alongside the phone crowd might be enough to fill in what's missing, but you're still going to need an editor to put together footage from numerous sources. The likelihood of receiving a crisp, professional looking wedding video with good sound is going to be slim, at best.  

While the do-it-yourself film craze is here to stay, the professional wedding videographer and the professional film-maker is not going to vanish anytime soon simply because of those two wee words: Professional continuity. 

The advantage of having more than one videographer...

It is generally accepted that more than one photographer for a wedding is normal, even needed for a superbly photographed wedding day.  Strangely, this axiom is often overlooked in videography. Yet the need for an additional videographer is equally, if not more, important.  One camera videography is fine for smaller weddings  (under 25 guests), but a single videographer with one camera cannot supply the kind of video coverage typical of  a multi-camera wedding video shoot.  Two videographers with three or four video cameras is the ideal combination for elaborate weddings.
