Wedding & Life Events: Proverbs

- a saying which has gained credence through widespread or frequent use
- A word from the wise...

Here today, gone tomorrow
- What is present now may be absent tomorrow

Today, it's fairly easy for someone to buy a camera, post a website, put a flashy ad in a bridal magazine and call themselves a professional videographer. We have heard horror stories of promises broken, money being taken and companies disappearing. The Principal of SEVideo started doing professional video production in 1984 and along with his staff, have shot hundreds of weddings in the Rochester Area. We are proud to be located in a very attractive and functional office studio located at 60 Saginaw Drive, in Henrietta...and we're not going anywhere! At SEVideo, you will find excellent customer service before, during and after your wedding.

Jack of all trades; master of none
- Someone who is fair at many things but good at none

DON'T be fooled by the “All in One” vendors who promise you awesome DJ services, as well as photography and video. These people are DJ's who “sub-contract” out whoever they can find to photograph and videotape your wedding. SEVideo has Full Service/Full Time Videographers who love what they do; shooting and editing weddings! We approach each wedding as a unique and special project. We do not use a cookie cutter approach. Your day is a special once in a lifetime event and we want your video to reflect that.

You get what you pay for
- if it sounds too good to be true...It probably is!

If someone is advertising an unbelievable price for videotaping services, beware! You're getting an amateur non-edited wedding that probably won't be worth the DVD it's printed on. Our work is unconditionally guaranteed. We will do whatever we can to meet your expectations and to maintain our high level of creativity and quality. A poorly done video, whatever the cost, just isn't worth it! Two heads are better than one - Some problems may be solved more easily by two people working together than by one working alone. Many local video “companies” are really only a one person operation. There is no one for them to fall back on if something was to happen to them. SEVideo has 8 full time wedding videograhers as well as numerous part-time videographers and assistants. We believe that we have the best as well as the most loyal videographers in Rochester.

A stitch in time, saves nine
- A little preventive maintenance can eliminate the need for major repairs later

SEVideo goes beyond standard industry practices to make sure that problems do not happen. That means we back up everything -- cameras, tripods, wireless and wired microphones; SEVideo leaves nothing to chance! All SEVideo staff members have their own cell phones. Key SEVideo staff members carry Nextel business phones that offer cellular as well as direct-connect and GPS capabilities. Shockingly, not every video professional in the area carries back up equipment.

You can't make a silk purse from a sow's ear
- It is impossible to make something excellent from poor material

Unfortunately, once a poor video is on tape, there is little we can do. We have had numerous calls of couples wanting us to fix what someone else has shot. Poor lighting, shaky cameras, bad audio, you name it! Don't make the mistake of hiring the wrong videographer, just to save a few bucks. Practice makes Perfect - Doing something over and over makes one better at it. SEVideo has shot hundreds of weddings in and around the Rochester area. Many of our videographers are also highly skilled editors and it is always our goal to have the videographer who shoots your event be involved in the editing process. We are constantly encouraging each other to think “outside the box” and we become edgier and more creative with every wedding that we do. We are a true testament that practice really does makes perfect!

The proof is in the pudding
- The ultimate evidence attesting the true nature of something

SEVideo encourages you to call other video professionals in the area and request a demo DVD. We are confident that when you compare their demo with ours, you'll discover why we are the biggest and fastest growing video company in the Rochester area!

Where there's a will there's a way
- If you want something badly enough, you can find the means to get it

Your wedding video is the only way to hold on to all of the memories, the sights, and the sounds. Nearly every bride and groom report that the day was a big blur. We capture everything that you've seen, and so many things that you've missed. Don't let another day go by thinking you can do without a wedding video. Once the day is gone, you can never get it back! That's why SEVideo offers flexible payment plans and we also accept all major credit cards.

Strike while the iron's HOT
