Sue van Zyl Videographer - Western Cape Sue has been filming events and weddings for over five years and takes pride in making sure she captures all the intimate and special moments that happen. Editing is done by Elmer van Zyl and a story is created on DVD that will bring a smile to your face for years to come. Using music overlays for the most part, as most people don’t like to hear their own voice on video we create a story in chapters that covers your whole day from the bride getting ready, groom waiting at the church, bride arriving at the church, ceremony in full and then on to the photos and reception. Sue has been doing this for so long there isn’t much that she hasn’t seen happening or going wrong at weddings and often she can jump in to assist the bride or family from something as small as advising which side the brides mum wears her corsage to helping the bride dress when someone is late. Whatever happens Sue enjoys the day with the family and helps if help is needed.

Why do I pay as a R500 deposit to secure your services?
I always take a R500 deposit to secure my services for your wedding because I may have many couples that will request my services for your date.Your R500 deposit gives you peace of mind that my services are booked in advance for your wedding.It also allows me to turn away couples that are requesting your date for their wedding. It is a mutual relationship :)

Do we need to meet before the wedding?
This is entirely up to you. I have been a wedding photographer/videographer for 9 years so I know what to do and what to look out for. The entire event is captured 90% naturally, so as long as you are enjoying yourself this will be captured in your photographs, the more we pose images the less time and opportunity I have to capture the reality and moments of your wedding. Consider doing a portrait session after your wedding for more relaxed posed images :)

How long before i get my goodies?
Well...in 2 weeks or so. If your getting married in March or April it might take a bit longer as we do a lot of weddings that time of year .

Yip... i have to this is a once in a lifetime event and cant afford not to have reliable equipment.

Who selects the photos for the album?
I do. I feel that by the time your back from you honeymoon the album is ready for you. We found that couples take too long to the photos for the album and for me doing do many weddings a month and cant afford to wait on couples to select. I pretty much select the photographs that you will select anyway.

If we need more enlargements printed in future (after we collected)?
Only If you need any A3 or larger prints done. I use a professional printing company and they know how to print the bigger enlargements correctly. All the photos i give you on your disc is Hi Res photos so can go print anywhere with them.
