7. How Many Cameras Should I Have At My Wedding? Generally, one camera, operated by a professional videographer is sufficient to capture your memories on film. However, if your budget allows for it, a second camera adds a beautiful dimension to your video, especially during the ceremony where the participants are generally standing still and where the videographer's movements are restricted.

Be weary, however, of recommendations from sources like Reception Halls and churches. Most of...
