from the photographer
photo and film with Dana
Tybee weddings live and die by the wind, the tide and the sunset. A coordinator who knows the island can place the ceremony so the light is behind your guests rather than in your eyes. If Dana is also your officiant, ask him to step aside at the kiss so I have a clear frame of the two of you.
from the photographer
photo and film By Level Of Help
General guidance from the camera side of the day, for the kinds of help Dana lists. It applies to any planner offering the same level.
With Full Planning
A full planner writes the timeline months ahead, which is the right moment to give photo and film their own lines. Send your planner the sunset time for your date, the list of family photographs and how long you want for portraits, and the schedule gets built around the light instead of squeezed into it.
With Month Of Coordination
A month of coordinator takes your plan and turns it into one schedule for every vendor. Hand over your photo and film times at the first meeting. The coordinator is the person who keeps the twenty quiet minutes for portraits from disappearing when the toasts run long.
With Wedding Day Coordination
On a day of package the coordinator often meets the plan late. Write the photo and film blocks into the timeline yourself before that meeting, with names for the family photographs, and the coordinator can run them on the day.
Your planner keeps the day moving. I keep the moments it moves past.

from the photographer
who wrote This Guide
I am Vitor Lindo. I have photographed and filmed 450 weddings in 14 years, about 400 of them here in the Lowcountry, from my studio at 1918 Howard Street in Savannah.
Photography and film are available together or separately, with one team planning both. That means one set of blocks on your planner's timeline, and nobody standing in the other one's shot.
