When you’re deep in the planning trenches—venue locked, date saved, Pinterest board overflowing—it’s easy to see your wedding photographer and videographer as two separate bookings. But here’s the thing: your wedding photographer and videographer team will spend most of the day by your side, shoulder-to-shoulder, capturing every big, small and unexpected moment.
And if they don’t work well together? You’ll feel it.
If they do vibe? It’s magic.
Teamwork Makes the Dream Work (Literally)
The difference between a disjointed creative team and one that gels can be the difference between:
- Awkward posing vs natural energy
- Missed moments vs smooth tag-team coverage
- A stressful morning vs calm, collaborative vibes
As a wedding videographer based in Melbourne and the Yarra Valley, I’ve worked alongside every kind of photo/video combo you can imagine—from the dream duos to the “maybe we shouldn’t be in the same room” variety.
And yep, couples feel that energy.
Signs You’ve Found the Right Duo
Want to avoid the creative clash? Look for a team that:
- Communicates clearly (no elbowing for the aisle shot)
- Respects each other’s style and space
- Have worked together before—or better yet, recommend each other!
- Have a similar vibe or approach (you’ll see it in their work)
And if your videographer says something like “Omg, I love working with them” — that’s gold.
Choose People You’d Grab a Drink With
You’ll be spending a lot of time with your photographer and videographer on your wedding day. They’re your unofficial hype squad — capturing all those beautiful moments, from your first look to the final dance. So it’s super important that you like them. You want to vibe with your team, not just their work.
Tip:
Go with your gut. Would you hang out with them on the weekend? Would you feel comfortable laughing, chatting, and being your authentic self around them? When you connect on a personal level, it’s easier to relax and enjoy your day, and that’s when the magic happens.
Ask to See a Full Gallery + Deliverable Film
Whether you’re chatting to a wedding photographer and videographer team or hiring separately, don’t just scroll their ‘Gram. Ask to see a full ceremony, speeches or highlight film. That’s where you’ll spot things like:
- How they handle low light or movement
- Consistency in coverage
- Whether their storytelling complements each other
You want your wedding film and gallery to feel like two halves of the same heart—not totally disconnected timelines.
A Dream Team in the Yarra Valley
Some of the most seamless, joy-filled weddings I’ve captured were with photographers I’ve vibed with in the Yarra Valley and surrounds—think flower-filled ceremony spaces, golden hour views and creative partners who bounce off each other all day long.

Ready to Build Your Dream Vendor Crew?
If you’ve already got a photographer locked in (or have your eye on someone dreamy), and want to see if we’d make a killer creative team—hit me up. I’m always down to work with legends, and I’ll be honest if I think we’d vibe or not.
