"How do we do it!? ..."

A Keepsake Video does not use camcorders bought in local stores. We want every couple to be 100% satisfied with their finished video; to ensure perfection in your finished DVD or videotape we use 3-chip broadcast cameras. If you've ever watched a soap opera wedding on TV; they use the 3-chip cameras. Your wedding can have that clarity. TV news crews use 3-chip cameras too; but your family members almost always have only a 1-chip camera. In the end, to protect yourself from a poor quality video, hire only a videographer that shows you their 3-chip video camera.

1-chip camcorder

Digital 3-chip half-inch CCD video camera

Analog 3-chip video camera

Shown below are weddings where we had both 1-chip and 3-chip cameras with us;
First you see the focusing problems most 1-chip cameras have;
Also visible is a 1-chip camera's inability to set the exposure correctly.

Below is an example of a backlit situation;
we encounter backlight at least a dozen times at every wedding; the 1-chip camera fails.

Below is an example of a church with poor lighting; Keepsake Video uses no lights during your ceremony;
the 1-chip camera produces a much grainier and snowy picture than the 3-chip.

A Keepsake Video uses wireless microphones. We won't wire up the bride or groom; we place the mike on a kneeler on the altar where you say your vows, or some flowers close-by.
Whether you're having a DJ or a BAND your reception will sound crystal clear due to A Keepsake's technique of directly hooking into the sound system. The CDs your DJ plays will survive right onto your finished videotape or DVD; no muffled or echoey sound. When you watch your wedding it'll be like playing the same CDs in your living room.

Audio: Listen to the top-notch sound quality

The below audio clips are excerpts from a past Keepsake Video. Please enjoy!

Normal sound from just the video camera's microphone (not the Keepsake Video way)

Clear sound from our direct wireless hookup into the band's or DJ's sound system (The unique Keepsake method)

Full Stereo Sound from both wireless and camera sources...as heard on each Keepsake Video
