Now it all started two Thanksgivings ago, was on - two years ago on Thanksgiving, when my friend and I went up to visit Alice at the restaurant, but Alice doesn't live in the restaurant, she lives in the church nearby the restaurant, in the bell-tower, with her husband Ray, and Fasha the dog. And living in the bell tower like that, they got a lot of room downstairs where the pews used to be in. Having all that room, seeing as how they took out all the pews, they decided that they didn't have to take out their garbage for a long time. We got up there, we found all the garbage in there, and we decided it would be a friendly gesture for us to take the garbage down to the city dump

So we took the half a ton of garbage, put it in the back of a red VW Microbus, took shovels and rakes and implements of destruction and headed on toward the city dump. Well, we got there and there was a big sign and a chain across across the Dump saying, "Closed on Thanksgiving". And we had never heard of a dump closed on Thanksgiving before, and with tears in our eyes we drove off into the sunset looking for another place to put the garbage. We didn't find one. Until we came to a side road, and off the side of the side road there was another fifteen foot cliff, and at the bottom of the cliff there was another pile of garbage. And we decided that one big pile is better than two little piles, and rather than bring that one up we decided to throw ours down. That's what we did, and drove back to the church, had a Thanksgiving dinner that couldn't be beat, went to sleep and didn't get up until the next morning, when we got a phone call from officer Obie.

He said, "Kid, we found your name on an envelope at the bottom of a half a ton of garbage, and just wanted to know if you had any information about it." And I said, "Yes, sir, Officer Obie, I cannot tell a lie, I put that envelope under that garbage." After speaking to Obie for about forty-five minutes on the telephone we finally arrived at the truth of the matter and said that we had to go down And pick up the garbage, and also had to go down and speak to him at the police officer's station. So we got in the red VW Microbus with the shovels and rakes and implements of destruction and headed on toward the police officer's station

Now friends, there was only one or two things that Obie coulda done at the police station, and the first was that he could have given us a medal for being so brave and honest on the telephone, which wasn't very likely, and we didn't expect it, and the other thing was that he could have bawled us out and told us never to be seen driving garbage around the vicinity again, which is what we expected, but when we got to the police officer's station, there was a third possibility that we hadn't even counted upon, and we was both immediately arrested. Handcuffed. And I said "Obie, I don't think I can pick up the garbage with these handcuffs on." He said, "Shut up, kid. Get in the back of the patrol car."

And that's what we did, sat in the back of the patrol car and drove to the, quote, "Scene of the Crime," unquote. I wanna tell you about the town of Stockbridge, Massachusetts, where this happened here, they got three stop signs, two police officers, and one police car, but when we got to the "Scene of the Crime" there was five police officers and three police cars, being the biggest crime of the last fifty years, and everybody wanted to get in the newspaper story about it. And they was using up all kinds of cop equipment that they had hanging around the police officer's station; they was taking plaster tire tracks, foot prints, dog smelling prints, and they took twenty-seven eight-by-ten color glossy photographs with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one explaining what each one was, to be used as evidence against us. Took pictures of the approach, the getaway, the northwest corner, the southwest corner and that's not to mention the aerial photography

After the ordeal, we went back to the jail. Obie said he was going to put us in the cell. Said, "Kid, I'm going to put you in the cell, I want your wallet and your belt." And I said, "Obie, I can understand you wanting my wallet so I don't have any money to spend in the cell, but what do you want my belt for?" And he said, "Kid, we don't want any hangings." I said, "Obie, did you think I was going to hang myself for littering?" Obie said he was making sure, and friends, Obie was, cause he took out the toilet seat so I couldn't hit myself over the head and drown, and he took out the toilet paper so I couldn't bend the bars, roll out the - roll the toilet paper out the window, slide down the roll and have an escape. Obie was making sure, and it was about four or five hours later that Alice (remember Alice?), Alice came by and with a few nasty words to Obie on the side, bailed us out of jail, and we went back to the church, had another Thanksgiving dinner that couldn't be beat, and didn't get up until the next morning, when we all had to go to court

We walked in, sat down, Obie came in with the twenty-seven eight-by-ten color glossy pictures with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one, sat down. Man came in said, "All rise." We all stood up, and Obie stood up with the twenty seven eight-by-ten color glossy pictures, and the judge walked in sat down with a seeing eye dog, and he sat down, we sat down. Obie looked at the seeing eye dog, and then at the twenty-seven eight-by-ten color glossy pictures with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one, and looked at the seeing eye dog and then at twenty-seven eight-by-ten color glossy pictures with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one and began to cry, 'cause Obie came to the realization that it was a typical case of American Blind Justice, and there wasn't nothing he could do about it, and the judge wasn't going to look at the twenty-seven eight-by-ten color glossy pictures with the circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one explaining what each one was to be used as evidence against us. And we was fined $50 and had to pick up the garbage in the snow

On the top floor of a building somewhere in Ukraine is a drone workshop.

Inside is a chaotic workbench covered in logic boards, antennas, batteries, augmented reality headsets, and rotor blades. On one end of the room is a makeshift photo studio—a jet-black quadcopter drone sits on a long white sheet, waiting for its close-up.

This particular workshop’s Geppetto is Yvan. He grins as he shows off his creations, flittering around with a lit cigarette in his mouth, dangling ash, grabbing different models. (Yvan is a pseudonym; WIRED granted some of the people in this story anonymity due to the security risk.)

Yvan holds up a mid-size drone: This model successfully hit a target from 11 kilometers away, he says, but it should be capable of traveling at least 20. He’s trying different batteries and controllers to try to extend the range. He screws on a stabilizer tailpiece to a hard plastic shell—Yvan 3D-prints these himself—and holds up the assembled bomb. It’s capable of carrying a 3.5-kilogram explosive payload, enough to take out a Russian tank.

He uses his index finger and thumb to pick up a nondescript beige chip: This, he says, is what he’s really proud of.

One big problem with these drones—which are based on commercially available first-person-view (FPV) or photography drones—is that their explosive payload is jimmy-rigged on. It requires the drone to crash in order to close the circuit and trigger the explosion.

This chip, Yvan says, allows for remote detonation from a significant distance, meaning the operator can park their drone and lay in wait for hours, even days, before it goes off. He expects this technology could, eventually, be connected to AI—exploding only if it registers a nearby tank, for example. He has created a long-range smart land mine, I note. After the idea is passed through our translator, he nods enthusiastically.

There are many of these FPV drone workshops around Ukraine—Kyiv estimates there are about 200 Ukrainian companies producing aerial drones, with others producing land- and sea-based uncrewed vehicles. But Yvan, grinning proudly, insists that the manufacturer which he represents, VERBA, is the best.

Ukraine is facing increasingly tough odds in its defensive war against a better-resourced, better-equipped enemy. Thanks to delayed aid from Washington and shortages in other NATO warehouses, Ukraine has lacked artillery shells, long-range missiles, and even air defense munitions.

These drones, however, represent a bright spot for the Ukrainians. Entrepreneurship and innovation is scaling up a sizable drone industry in the country, and it’s making new technological leaps that would make the Pentagon envious.

The age of drone warfare is here, and Ukraine wants to be a superpower.

After Yvan showed off his workshop, we loaded into the car to visit one of his factories.

Behind a steel door is a room filled with racks, where 30 3D printers are working simultaneously, printing various drone components in unison. The twentysomething employees seem accustomed to the screeching alarm—some are soldering the drones together, others are tinkering with designs in AutoCAD, one is lounging on a sofa.

Strung across one shelf of 3D printers is a black flag, a take on Blackbeard’s (apocryphal) pirate flag. It shows a horned skeleton wearing an AR headset and holding a controller, thrusting his spear toward a bleeding heart as a quadcopter flies above.

In the first year of the war, when FPV drones were providing extraordinary footage of the front lines and viral video of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) dropping grenades on Russian tanks captivated the world, Ukraine was snatching up every consumer drone it could find. Chinese technology giant DJI became a household name in Ukraine, thanks to its drones’ ubiquity on the front lines. Ukraine’s early advantage was quickly lost, however, as Russia scrambled to snatch up these Chinese-made UAVs.

“When Russia sees, from Instagram, my product, Russia starts buying all these components in China,” a VERBA executive says. The new demand from Moscow can often cause either shortages or inflation, squeezing out the Ukrainian companies. So entrepreneurs like Yvan began building their own.

When Yvan began his operation in the early months of the war following Russia’s February 2022 full-scale invasion, he was creating a handful of frankendrones to send to the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Now, Yvan says, his operation is producing 5,000 FPV drones per month. He offers a range of systems, from a mammoth 12-inch model to a 4-inch prototype.

At first, these entrepreneurs were pursuing this project on their own—scrambling, like most of the country, to be useful in helping Ukraine defend itself. Kyiv was initially cool to the idea that a domestic drone industry was worth the money and attention, especially given the demand for more conventional arms. Some in the military, one executive says, dismissed the utility of these innovative weapons and surveillance platforms as merely “wedding photography drones.” (One executive said Oleksandr Syrskyi, Ukraine’s new commander in chief, had been an early adopter inside the military, directly contracting 10 firms in early 2023 to begin assembling new technology for his forces.)

That attitude changed in 2023, when Ukraine set up Brave1, a government-run technology agency and incubator that helps connect private enterprise to the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

Since its creation, Brave1 has worked to streamline design, development, and procurement of new defense technology, while helping companies navigate government and military bureaucracy. Brave1 has already awarded more than $3 million in research and development grants and connected more than 750 companies to the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

When United24, the Ukrainian government’s in-house crowdfunding platform, first pitched an “army of drones” to its donors in 2022, it aimed to buy just 200 units. Today, Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky projected late last year that his country would produce over 1 million drones in 2024.

“I would say that we can even double this number,” Natalia Kushnerska, head of Brave1’s defense technology cluster, tells WIRED.

“We have the responsibility and the motivation to do it today and to do it very fast,” she says. “Because we don't have any other choice.”

This is a war, one executive told me, “where the economy matters.”

Even hampered by sanctions, Russia has a $2 trillion economy—about 6 percent of that is geared toward its wartime production. Ukraine’s entire GDP, by contrast, is less than $200 billion.

While Kyiv has received substantial support from its NATO partners, it faces constant pressure to find efficiencies. The economics of these drones are looking better and better.

Yvan’s drones are, compared to conventional munitions, cheap. His most expensive unit runs about $2,500, but the cheapest is only $400.

Early in the war, the Ukrainians could reasonably expect—depending on weather, the mission, and Russian jamming efforts—that about 30 percent of their drones would connect with the target. Today, good Ukrainian-made systems are approaching a 70 percent success rate.

It can often take four or five artillery shells to successfully destroy a medium-range target, such as a tank. At $8,000 per shell—which are in short supply and high demand—that is an expensive proposition. Even if it takes two of Yvan’s most expensive drones to achieve the same objective, that’s thousands of dollars in savings. The proliferation of these drones reduces the “cost-per-kill,” as one executive phrased it, and reduces the strain on those dwindling ammunition stockpiles.

Even if Yvan and other producers are making more and more of their systems in Ukraine, they still rely on Chinese suppliers for critical onboard components. That comes with a trade-off—Chinese suppliers are cheaper, but they tend to be of lower quality and are happy to do business with Russia as well. Other options, such as companies in Taiwan, the United States, Canada, or Europe, are better quality but can be several times more expensive.

These supply chains, Yvan says, are “complicated.” Drone manufacturers who spoke to WIRED say anywhere between 40 percent and 80 percent of their drone components are made in Ukraine. Asked how long it would take before Ukraine manufactures nearly everything in these drones, from the rotor blades to the onboard components, Yvan provides a bullish estimate: “six months.”

It’s not an entirely unrealistic dream. Mykhailo Fedorov, Ukraine’s deputy prime minister and also minister responsible for digital transformation, said late last year that Kyiv hopes to break ground on a semiconductor factory, capable of producing 50,000 chips a year, by 2025. Ukraine produces about half the world’s supply of neon, necessary for the lasers used to make the chips.

There are already companies in Ukraine that have developed electronic design automation software—a necessary tool for producing chips—and that do electronic assembly inside the country itself. An industry source tells WIRED that a working group was formed in late 2023 to chart out how Ukraine could be a player in the semiconductor industry.

Another defense technology executive, Igor, manufactures considerably more-sensitive drones. “We definitely don’t buy anything from China,” he says. His products are more expensive, he says, “but we are looking for something that would differentiate us from the Russians.” At the moment, he says, “Russia is ahead.” He’s hoping to close that gap.

For any of this to work, however, there needs to be demand for these drones. The more they can sell, the more they can invest. “The things that they need,” Kushnerska says: “contracts and money.” Demand has certainly grown—fundraising platform United24 helped finance a fleet of naval drones and raised funds to purchase 5,000 surveillance UAVs. Other organizations have led similar purchases. The drone-makers, however, say it’s just not enough.

In early 2023, Ukraine’s parliament passed new laws to regulate how drone manufacturers can contract with the state; while profiteering is generally discouraged in the wartime economy, the law specifically allows the companies to charge up to 25 percent profit.

Yvan says he charges just a 10 percent premium for his drones and reinvests all that profit back into his operation. Representatives from other drone companies who spoke to WIRED say they operate on a similar basis.

More orders will mean more investment. Thus far, NATO countries have preferred to purchase locally-made equipment and ship it to Ukraine. That may be changing.

Bill Blair, Canada’s minister of defense, visited Kyiv shortly before I was there. While there, he announced that Ottawa would donate 800 Canadian-made drones to Ukraine. While the donation was lauded, a senior official asked the minister, “Why didn't you buy our drones?” After being briefed on the various innovations taking place in the Ukrainian drone industry, Blair was convinced. “We're also going to find ways to invest in Ukrainian industry,” he tells WIRED. “The point of the [Ukraine Defense Contact Group drone coalition] is to create capability, not only in the countries that are in the coalition but also capability in Ukraine.”

Even still, bureaucracy moves slowly. What’s more, startups—some of which are helmed by technologists or special effects gurus with no experience in procurement, let alone war—are often learning as they go. One executive, covering his eyes with his hand, says: “It’s like going completely blind.”

Not every company has been able to hack it. One executive says he’s aware of five defense technology startups that have shut down since the war began.

Much attention has been paid to FPV drones. They reinforce the idea that Ukraine’s defense is a scrappy, homespun effort. But even as the country has professionalized production of these light, agile drones, it has rapidly spun up production of other, more complicated systems.

One of Ukraine’s biggest disadvantages, from the start of the war, has been its difficulty in hitting targets inside Russia. Because Moscow has so effectively dominated the skies, Ukraine has been left playing defense.

That equation has changed substantially in recent weeks. Ukraine has had enormous success in attacking Russian oil refineries—knocking out as much as 15 percent of the country’s total refining capacity—and bombing Russian air bases. This has all been made possible by Ukrainian-made long-range attack drones.

Igor, who represents a company responsible for producing those long-range bombers, says they have developed a unit capable of flying 1,000 kilometers and carrying a 25-kilogram payload and has produced “several hundred” units for the Ukrainian Armed Forces. And they are actively working on a new model, capable of flying up to 2,500 kilometers. (It will pack a smaller punch, he said: “The longer you go, the lighter the payload.”)

These systems are more expensive: from $35,000 to $100,000. But if they can destroy millions of dollars worth of Russian equipment, that’s a bargain.

“These are no simple drones,” Igor says. “We don’t have the luxury, like the Western guys, to spend years in development.”

They’re not stopping with drones, either. They’re using the same technology to develop Ukrainian-made missiles, capable of flying farther and doing more damage to Russian military infrastructure, tucked well behind the front lines, which is regularly used to attack Ukrainian cities.

Igor’s goal is to “bring the war to Russia.” FPV drones have broadcast the realities of the front lines in high definition—long-range bombers could successfully make it feel real, he says. “They don’t suffer like we suffer.”

The effort to bring the war to Russia is advancing on multiple fronts. One of the most famous uncrewed systems of the war has been Kyiv’s Sea Baby drones. Videos have gone viral of these sleek ships clipping along the waters of the Black Sea.

According to Kyiv, they can carry 850 kilograms of explosives, go 90 kilometers per hour, travel some 1,000 kilometers—and they are invisible to radar. This is the kind of capability that the Pentagon, and other defense departments, has spent years trying to develop. “We like to joke that everything we do now, in Ukraine, takes three days—globally, it takes three years,” Brave1’s Kushnerska says.

Ask around Kyiv about these drones, however, and everyone is mum. Even otherwise talkative defense sources go quiet when asked about the Sea Babys. Asked about the vehicles, one defense executive smiled and said simply, “That’s classified.”

Kushnerska is equally evasive: “We need to keep silent about new solutions and new surprises that we are preparing for the enemy.”

The skullduggery is understandable. These uncrewed vehicles have been responsible for doing massive damage to Russia’s prized Black Sea fleet and spearheading the first major attack on the Kerch Bridge, in Crimea, in 2022.

Developing naval drones, however, is relatively easy compared to uncrewed land systems.

Over tea with Stepan, another defense entrepreneur, he lists the litany of difficulties of trying to build uncrewed land systems: They don’t travel well over tough terrain, they don’t operate well in inclement weather, and they don’t tend to go very far.

And yet, Stepan says, his company has overcome all those obstacles—which the Pentagon is still wrestling with—and has put these land systems in the field. Plus, Stepan says he’s “pleasantly surprised by how they’re being used.” He says their smallest unit, which has generally been used to deliver food and equipment, recently rescued and evacuated a wounded soldier from the front line.

Ukraine is not the only side deploying these land systems, however. In late March, pro-Kremlin channels celebrated what they said was the successful deployment of Russian-made uncrewed land systems, outfitted with an AGS-17 grenade launcher.

Ukraine believes its advantage will come from how it dispatches these systems. “You need a mesh system,” Stepan says. And that’s one of the single hardest things to do. Ukraine has started dispatching repeater UAVs, which are used to extend the base station signal, allowing the drones to fly farther and defend better against Russian jamming.

One ground drone, basically a mobile machine-gun turret, boasts an 800-meter range. What’s more impressive, however, is what happens when the land system is paired with a surveillance drone. Rather than them firing directly ahead, Stepan’s team has been training Ukrainian soldiers how to raise the weapon's trajectory, firing in a parabolic pattern and using the drone’s camera to adjust its aim. This tactic, he says, extends the drone’s firing range to 2.4 kilometers.

Doing combined operations with a couple of drones is hard enough. If Ukraine wants to really take advantage of these autonomous systems, it will need to figure out how to command multiple systems across land and air—and that’s where artificial intelligence comes in.

Stepan walks through the four levels of how AI can augment warfare: One is reconnaissance, where machine learning can be used to collate large volumes of footage and satellite imagery. Two is “copiloting,” as he calls it, where AI can analyze that intelligence and help draw insights. Third is planning, where AI can help develop “interlinked, complex orders” for multiple systems across land and air; he likens that to having AI develop football plays. Finally, step four is full autonomy, where AI collects intelligence, analyzes it, develops orders based on the intelligence, and dispatches and commands autonomous units based on that information—although humans review and approve each step of the process.

There are steps beyond this, Stepan notes, that remove human involvement entirely, but he isn’t interested in going there. Another executive recounted a story of how one company designed an autonomous machine gun, capable of conducting object detection and opening fire on its own—that was a “big, big problem,” he says, after the weapon’s radio signals were jammed and it began firing wildly. “I think we can do this slowly,” he adds.

Stepan’s systems are capable of operating at step four, he says. It means his systems have the “ability to take in variables” in real time—it allows his drones to change tactics depending on the environment. He provides examples: “What if our team is close? What if there is [electronic warfare]? What if one system loses connection?”

Kushnerska says Ukraine, alive to the concerns about and risks of AI on the battlefield, is mostly interested in using artificial intelligence only in the “last mile.”

It’s not enough to build drones. Ukrainians also have to know how to pilot them.

The last stop on Yvan’s tour is at a strip mall some distance away. Outside, a group of fresh-faced young men smoke cigarettes and enthusiastically greet him as he walks past.

Inside is a sterile classroom, with a dozen desks laid out—each featuring a tablet, a workstation, and an array of tools. In the back corner are pallets of FPV drones waiting to be unloaded.

This is Yvan’s drone school. Here, students learn not just the ins and outs of piloting these quadcopters but also how the machines work and how to repair them. Down the hallway is a large conference room where the students first test their skills—flags and checkpoints are propped up on cardboard boxes taped together into platforms of different levels. Once students can successfully navigate this makeshift course, they graduate to piloting the drones outside.

Yvan’s drones are normally painted jet black, designed to look as nondescript as possible. One drone, sitting on a desk in the training school, is spray-painted a bright orange. Yvan grins: “We’re sick of losing them in the grass.”

As Kyiv mobilized tens of thousands of ordinary Ukrainian men to fight, training has been a critical necessity. Particularly as ammunition supplies have dwindled, virtual training has been especially attractive. High-tech combat simulators have allowed Ukrainian troops to simulate real combat scenarios with rifles, rocket-propelled grenades, even anti-tank missiles. Ukrainian entrepreneurs are hoping to have dozens of these simulators online in the near future, with the goal of training 100,000 troops.

An industry source tells WIRED that a drone combat simulator went online last month, allowing trainees to simulate the entire process of launching a long-range drone strike. Version 2.0 is being rolled out now, they say, adding that it is likely the first immersive offensive drone simulator in operation. The simulator is also intended to help Ukrainian pilots practice integrating their drones with land systems, which is notoriously difficult for even experienced soldiers.

While Yvan’s drone school offers hands-on experience for users of the FPV drones, this new drone simulator allows pilots to practice long-range targeting, flying in adverse weather conditions, and countering electronic warfare.

All of this—the FPV drones, the long-range bombers, the flight simulators—is Ukrainian innovation at work. And it is moving remarkably fast. Some day, after the war is over, Yvan may well be on the front lines of a Ukrainian technology renaissance, fulfilling orders for the Pentagon. First, both he—and Ukraine—need to survive.

In recent weeks, Russian forces have made modest but steady advances along the front lines. Defense executives, meanwhile, see sabotage and industrial espionage as constant problems. Even more acute is the threat of Russian air strikes. One executive recently recounted how one of his company’s main facilities was nearly hit by two Russian cruise missiles. The risk is very real.

Leaving the school, Yvan opens up the back of his car. He rummages around and hands me two patches: One features a cartoonish and scantily clad woman wearing an FPV headset with the Ukrainian flag on the side, piloting one of Yvan’s rotocopters. The other, an army-green Canadian flag, carries the words “ALWAYS BE READY.”

Choosing the Right Wedding Cameraman: A Guide for Your Perfect Day

Your wedding day is one of the most special moments of your life, filled with love, joy, and cherished memories. As such, capturing these moments is crucial, and selecting the right wedding cameraman plays a key role in ensuring your day is documented beautifully. With so many options out there, it can feel overwhelming to pick the best professional for the job. In this guide, we’ll help you navigate the process of choosing the perfect cameraman for your wedding, from what to look for in their portfolio to essential questions you should ask before booking.

Why a Wedding Cameraman is Essential

A cameraman does more than just point a camera and shoot. They play an important role in preserving the emotions and excitement of your wedding day for years to come. Unlike photos, which offer static images, a wedding video captures movement, sound, and atmosphere in real time. From the bride’s walk down the aisle to the tear-jerking speeches during the reception, a talented cameraman ensures that these significant moments are immortalized in a way that photography alone cannot achieve.

The Difference Between a Wedding Photographer and Cameraman

While both the wedding photographer and the cameraman are integral to capturing your wedding day, they serve different purposes. A photographer will give you still images, while a cameraman provides a dynamic retelling of your wedding with video footage. Having both allows for a fuller picture of the day, giving you the chance to relive not only key moments but also the atmosphere and emotions that photos may miss.

What to Look for in a Wedding Cameraman

Selecting the right professional for the job can be a daunting task, but breaking it down into manageable steps will help. Here are some key things to look for when searching for a wedding cameraman:

1. Portfolio and Style

Every wedding videographer has a unique style, and it’s important to find one that matches your vision for your big day. Whether you’re looking for a cinematic, documentary, or traditional approach, reviewing a cameraman's portfolio is the first step. Ask to see full wedding videos, not just highlight reels, so you can get a sense of how they capture every part of the day.

Pro Tip: Watch for consistency in their work. A professional cameraman will maintain high quality throughout the entire day, from the ceremony to the reception.

2. Experience and Expertise

Weddings are fast-paced, emotional events with no room for do-overs, so hiring a cameraman with experience is key. An experienced videographer will know how to handle different lighting situations, stay unobtrusive during intimate moments, and capture all the important details without missing a beat. Make sure to ask about how long they’ve been in the wedding business and how many weddings they’ve filmed.

3. Equipment and Technology

The quality of the final video heavily depends on the equipment a cameraman uses. Professional-grade cameras, lenses, and audio equipment can make a significant difference in the clarity and sound of your wedding film. Additionally, ask if they use drones for stunning aerial shots or offer 4K video, which is becoming increasingly popular for ultra-clear footage.

4. Communication and Professionalism

A good wedding cameraman will not only be skilled in capturing video, but also in communication. They should be open to discussing your preferences and understanding your vision for the day. After all, they’ll be working closely with you and other vendors, so ensuring that they are professional, respectful, and easy to work with will make your wedding day smoother.

5. Editing Style and Timelines

While the filming itself is important, so is the editing process. Each cameraman has their own approach to editing, so it’s important to discuss how your video will be crafted. Some couples prefer a short, highlight film, while others might want a longer, more in-depth version. Ask about their typical turnaround time for delivering the final product, as wedding videos can take weeks or even months to be completed.

Questions to Ask Your Wedding Cameraman

To make sure you're choosing the right professional, here are some key questions to ask during your initial consultation:

What’s your style of videography?

This will help you determine if their approach aligns with your preferences.

Can I see a full wedding video that you’ve shot?

Highlight reels may not give you the full picture. Watching a complete video will help you assess their storytelling ability.

How do you work with photographers?

Coordination between your wedding photographer and cameraman is essential for both to capture the best shots without getting in each other’s way.

What equipment do you use?

Ask about cameras, lenses, and audio equipment to ensure they are using professional-grade tools that produce high-quality results.

How long will it take to receive the final video?

Editing is a time-consuming process, so be clear on timelines to manage expectations.

Tips for Getting the Best Wedding Video

1. Share Your Vision

Communicate clearly with your wedding cameraman about your expectations. Whether you prefer a more candid, documentary-style video or a highly cinematic production, make sure they understand your vision.

2. Consider an Engagement or Pre-Wedding Shoot

Some couples opt for a pre-wedding or engagement shoot to get comfortable in front of the camera. This also gives the cameraman a chance to understand your dynamic as a couple, helping them to tailor their shooting style accordingly.

3. Focus on Key Moments

While your wedding videographer will capture the entire day, think about the key moments you absolutely want on film. This could be your vows, the first look, or special family traditions. Sharing this information with your cameraman ensures they prioritize these parts of your day.

4. Trust Your Cameraman’s Expertise

Remember, your cameraman has likely captured dozens, if not hundreds, of weddings. Trust their expertise when it comes to lighting, angles, and shot composition. They’ve seen it all and will know how to make your wedding look its best.

Conclusion: Capturing Your Perfect Day

Finding the right wedding cameraman is an investment in preserving the magic of your wedding day. By focusing on their portfolio, experience, equipment, and communication skills, you’ll be able to select a professional who not only meets your needs but exceeds your expectations. With the right videographer, you’ll be able to relive your special day over and over, each time with the same emotion and excitement as when it first happened.

📖TIP: Framing Camera Shot - Wide Shot

Framing Camera Shot: Overview > Wide Shot Full and Medium Shots Close Up Shot

Wide Shot:

Also called the long shot, the wide shot frames the character from head to foot with details of the environment visible. The wide shot is great for showing the action as well as the location.

This shot is also great for MOC builders and to showcase your LEGO sets. In LEGO photography terms, it means the full set, your MOC, the outdoor location you’re shooting at, or your diorama. 

Equipment-wise, this shot is very approachable for beginner LEGO photographers, because it can be shot on cell phones or your kit lens. If you want to shoot dramatic natural locations with your LEGO toys, a wide-angle lens would be a good choice (less than 35mm, the lower the number, the wider the angle of your lens).

Some variations of the wide shot are the Extreme Wide Shot and the Establishing Shot.

Extreme Wide Shot:

The extreme wide shot is mostly environment. If a character is in it, the character is generally very small. City skylines, wide open desert, and aerial views of a mountain are all examples of an extreme wide shot.

This shot is great for expressing loneliness or isolation since the viewer is so distant from the subject.

In the real world, extreme wide shots require using a wide-angle lens or being very distant from the scene we’re shooting, but for us LEGO photographers, we can get away with creating micro-builds and using a regular lens.

Establishing Shot:

The establishing shot shows your viewer the location and environment. In story terms, it’s the WHERE in the story. Whether it’s a wide shot of a bedroom or alleyway or an extreme wide shot of a cityscape or desert, it tells your viewer where the action is taking place.

The establishing shot’s subject is equally place and character (if there is a character), so you’ll want all of your LEGO set or MOC to be in focus.

Next week I will go over Full and Medium Shots, thanks for reading!

The Future of Real Estate Photography: Emerging Technologies

The real estate industry is constantly evolving, fueled by emerging technologies that disrupt traditional practices. When it comes to real estate photography, several new technologies are shaping the future of the field. Here are a few notable ones:

1. 360-Degree Virtual Tours: 360-degree virtual tours allow potential buyers to explore a property virtually, providing a more immersive experience than static photographs or videos. With specialized cameras and software, real estate photographers can capture every angle of a space and stitch them together to create a seamless, interactive tour. This technology enables buyers to digitally walk through a property, assessing each room and corner from the comfort of their own homes.

2. Augmented Reality (AR): Augmented reality has the potential to revolutionize real estate photography by overlaying virtual elements onto the real world. With AR, potential buyers can use their smartphones or devices to view a property and see digital furniture, decor, or other design elements placed within the space. This allows them to visualize different design choices and evaluate how a property could look once furnished – all without physically staging a space.

3. Virtual Reality (VR): Virtual reality technology immerses potential buyers in a digitally created environment, providing a fully immersive experience. In real estate photography, this means creating a virtual walkthrough where buyers can navigate a property using virtual reality headsets. The technology allows buyers to feel as if they are physically present in the property https://bokomedia.com/, exploring it from room to room, evaluating the size, layout, and ambiance in a way that traditional photographs or videos cannot provide.

4. AI-Driven Image Recognition: Artificial intelligence-driven image recognition technology can streamline the real estate photography process and enhance the quality of images. This technology uses algorithms to analyze and categorize photographs, automatically identifying and tagging elements in the images such as room types, furnishings, and architectural features. This can save time for real estate photographers and help potential buyers quickly find relevant properties based on their specific interests and preferences.

5. Drones and Advanced Aerial Photography: As mentioned in a previous article, drones are already playing a significant role in real estate photography. However, technological advancements in drone capabilities, such as improved camera stabilization and maneuverability, are making aerial photography even more accessible and stunning. Enhanced drones equipped with high-resolution cameras and advanced flight control systems can capture breathtaking aerial shots, showcasing the exterior and surroundings of a property from unique perspectives.

In conclusion, emerging technologies are reshaping the future of real estate photography. From 360-degree virtual tours and augmented reality to virtual reality and AI-driven image recognition, these technologies provide potential buyers with an immersive and interactive experience. As these technologies continue to evolve and become more accessible, they will undoubtedly transform the way properties are marketed and sold in the real estate industry.

Elevating Your Brand with Professional Drone Photography

In the dynamic landscape of modern marketing, standing out is more crucial than ever. Drones, with their ability to capture unique aerial perspectives, offer a novel way to showcase products, services, and brand identity. This innovative approach to photography not only enhances the visual appeal but also adds a layer of storytelling that traditional photography methods might miss.

Unparalleled Perspectives for Captivating Imagery

One of the most significant advantages of drone photography is the unique viewpoint it provides. Aerial shots can capture expansive landscapes, architectural details, and dynamic scenes that are impossible to achieve with ground-level photography. This elevated perspective can make ordinary locations look extraordinary, adding a dramatic and professional edge to your branding imagery. For businesses like real estate, tourism, or event planning, these perspectives can be particularly beneficial, offering potential customers a comprehensive view that can influence their decision-making.

Enhancing Brand Storytelling through Visuals

Storytelling is at the heart of effective branding, and drone photography can play a crucial role in this aspect. By providing a bird's-eye view of events, locations, and products, drones can tell a story that resonates with the audience. For example, a drone video of a beach resort can not only show its vastness and facilities but also convey the experience of tranquility and luxury. Similarly, drones can capture the scale and impact of events or projects, enabling brands to share their stories in a more engaging and memorable way.

Technical Superiority and Professionalism

Professional drone photography isn't just about taking high-quality photos from the air. It's a blend of advanced technology, artistic vision, and technical skill. Professional drone photographers are equipped with high-resolution cameras, sophisticated stabilizing technology, and a deep understanding of aerial shooting techniques. This combination ensures that the images are not only stunning but also of a quality that reflects the professionalism and standards of your brand. Visit this site to know more about professional drone photography.

Overcoming Challenges with Expertise

Despite its many benefits, drone photography comes with its own set of challenges, such as legal regulations, safety concerns, and weather dependencies. Professional drone photographers are adept at navigating these challenges. They understand the legalities of drone operations and are skilled in planning shoots that comply with regulations and safety standards. This expertise ensures that your brand reaps the benefits of drone photography without the risks and complexities associated with it.

Customization and Creativity in Brand Representation

Drone photography offers a high degree of customization, allowing brands to create imagery that aligns perfectly with their vision and message. Professional drone photographers work closely with brands to understand their ethos, target audience, and objectives. This collaboration leads to creative outputs that are tailor-made for the brand, ensuring that the final images are not just visually appealing but also strategically aligned with the brand's goals.

Cost-Effectiveness and High Return on Investment

While professional drone photography is an investment, its impact on brand perception and engagement can offer a high return. The compelling visuals captured by drones can be used across various platforms, from social media to print advertisements, enhancing the brand's reach and appeal. The versatility and longevity of these images make drone photography a cost-effective solution for brands looking to make a lasting impression.

Conclusion: A Step Towards a Futuristic Brand Image

In conclusion, professional drone photography is more than a trend; it's a powerful tool for elevating a brand's image in a competitive market. With its ability to provide unique perspectives, enhance storytelling, and deliver high-quality, customizable content, drone photography can transform the way a brand is perceived and experienced by its audience. As we move further into the digital era, incorporating innovative techniques like drone photography will be key to staying relevant and captivating in the eyes of consumers.

about photography

Photography is a fascinating art form that allows us to capture and preserve moments, objects, and emotions in a visual medium. With the advent of digital technology, photography has become more accessible to a wide range of people, from amateur enthusiasts to professional photographers. It allows us to document our experiences, express our creativity, and convey stories in a powerful way.

One of the key elements of photography is composition. It involves how we frame our subjects, consider the placement of different elements within the frame, and create a visually pleasing image. Composition can greatly impact the way a photograph is perceived and can create a sense of balance, harmony, or tension. It is an important skill for photographers to develop and can greatly enhance the impact of their images.

Lighting also plays a crucial role in photography. The way light interacts with our subjects can dramatically transform the mood and atmosphere of an image. Photographers need to understand how to use natural light, as well as artificial lighting techniques, to highlight their subjects, create shadows, or add depth to their photographs. Learning to harness and manipulate light is a key skill that can elevate the quality and impact of your photography.

Another important aspect of photography is storytelling. Through careful selection of subjects, framing, composition, and post-processing techniques, photographers can tell captivating stories and evoke emotions in their viewers. Whether it's capturing the joy of a family gathering, the essence of a landscape, or the intensity of a sports event, photography has the ability to freeze moments in time and convey narratives in a powerful and memorable way.

Photography is a multi-faceted art form that combines technical skills, artistic vision, and a unique perspective. It allows us to explore our creativity, communicate our experiences, and connect with others on a visual level. Whether you're just starting out or have been photographing for years, there's always something new to learn and discover in the world of photography.

In addition to composition, lighting, and storytelling, photographers need to have a good understanding of exposure. Exposure determines how bright or dark an image appears and is affected by factors such as shutter speed, aperture, and ISO. Learning to balance these three settings can greatly impact the quality of your images and allow you to capture everything from fast action shots to long exposure night photography.

Post-processing is another important aspect of photography, particularly in the digital age. With editing software such as Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom, photographers can enhance their images by adjusting exposure, color, contrast, and other elements. While post-processing shouldn't be used to completely change the nature of an image, it can be a useful tool for fine-tuning and bringing attention to certain elements of a photograph.

Photography is not only about capturing images but also about understanding the equipment you’re using. Whether you're shooting with a DSLR camera or a smartphone, it's important to have a good understanding of the features and settings of your device. Experimenting with different modes and settings, and taking the time to learn each one, can help you to better understand the capabilities of your camera and take better photographs.

Finally, photography is a constantly evolving field, with new technology and techniques emerging all the time. One of the most exciting developments in photography is the rise of drone photography. Drones equipped with high-quality cameras and stabilizers can capture breathtaking aerial shots that were once impossible to achieve. It's an exciting time to be a photographer, with endless possibilities and avenues for exploration.
