One pro, two lenses, zero stress, and a lot of memories
Denmark. A historic courtyard in Copenhagen or a quiet ceremony by the sea (Stevns Klint, Roskilde, Helsingør…you name it). You’ve brought your world together - family from different countries, friends you haven't seen in years. These moments are lightning in a bottle. They happen now, and they will never happen in this exact constellation again.
Most couples start by asking: "Should we hire a photographer OR a videographer?"
My answer? Don't choose. Get both. But hire just one person.
After 10+ years documenting weddings - and hundreds of ceremonies across the country - I specialize in hybrid photo video wedding coverage in Denmark. That means I capture high-end still photography and cinematic film simultaneously, seamlessly, and intentionally.
Here is why hybrid shooting is the ultimate wedding "cheat code."
1. Photos for the Walls, Video for the Soul
Photography captures the look, but video captures the energy. A photo shows the smile; video lets you hear the laughter. A photo captures the hug; video preserves the way your father’s voice cracked during his toast.
Think of it this way: Twenty years from now, you won’t just want to see how young you looked. You’ll want to hear the way your partner’s voice sounded when they said "I do." If you only book photos, you are voluntarily choosing to forget the sound of your own wedding. Video is a time machine that photography simply can’t hear.
2. The "Crowd" Problem: Less People = More Sincerity
When you hire separate vendors for photo and video, you’re inadvertently inviting a "crew" into your most private moments. They coordinate, they move gear, and they create a barrier between you and your guests. It shifts the energy from an intimate celebration to a production set.
The Hybrid Photo and Video Advantage for your wedding in Denmark:
I work alone. I’m like a guest with a camera—a "ninja" with a decade of muscle memory. Within 15 minutes, you’ll forget I’m even there. Because there’s no crowd of vendors, you can actually focus on your partner, not a lens. Fewer people = more honest emotions.
3. No "Creative Traffic Jams"
Separate teams often fight for the same "hero shot." You shouldn't have to hear two different people shouting directions at you.
As a Hybrid pro, I am my own director. Yes, during our portrait session, I might ask you to "give me that laugh one more time" or "keep walking toward the sun." Why? Because I want to catch the perfect stillness of the photo and the cinematic motion of the video. The difference is: we do it once, we do it fast, and we do it with one vision. No confusion, no competing instructions - just us, making magic twice as fast.
4. The “More Cameras = More Value” Myth
It sounds logical: two people, more angles, more coverage.But weddings are not action movies, they are emotional micro-moments.
The real magic isn’t in ten angles of the same kiss - it’s in being in the right place at the exact right second.
After 10+ years and hundreds of ceremonies in Denmark, I know when the registrar pauses before the vows, when the wind hits the veil at Stevns Klint, when your guests start tearing up in Copenhagen’s City Hall ceremony room.
5. The Logic of One: Premium Quality, Smart Investment
Let’s be real: many high-end photographers charge a massive premium for only stills, so hiring a top-tier photographer and then a separate top-tier videographer is a logistical and financial headache.
My approach is different. I’m not offering a "budget compromise"; I’m offering extreme efficiency. Over the past decade, I’ve refined a hybrid workflow that is fast and structured. My dual-camera workflow captures still portraits and living stories, all tied together by a post-production system built specifically for combined delivery.
You aren't paying for two salaries, two sets of travel, or two separate business overheads. You’re paying for one expert who delivers a massive gallery of high-end photos AND a cinematic film.
Time is a Thief.
We pretend we have forever, but having every person who shaped your life in one room, witnessing your love, is a miracle you’ll only truly grasp years from now.
In a decade, you won’t just want to see how you looked. You’ll want to hear the way your favorite person said your name that day. You'll want to feel the heavy, beautiful silence right before the "I do." Photography saves the light, but video saves the life inside it.
Choosing a hybrid experience means you don’t have to compromise. You get the elegance of photography and the emotional depth of film - and the intimacy of a wedding that still feels like yours.
You don’t need more vendors - you need one person who knows exactly what she’s doing.
Love fiercely. Take the photos. Film the moments.
Don’t settle for half a memory.
Don’t just take my word for it - see the results for yourself. Below is a showcase from a simple 2-hour hybrid photo & video wedding package. In just 120 minutes, I delivered a premium gallery of 100+ photos and a cinematic film. No crew. No stress. Just the full story.
