Capturing the most beautiful moments of their own wedding forever - that's what all bridal couples want. Hannes Wolf thinks that photos can only do this insufficiently.

Capturing the most beautiful moments of their own wedding forever - that's what all bridal couples want.

Hannes Wolf thinks that photos can only do this insufficiently.

That is why the 34-year-old accompanies couples on their big day with the film camera.

The mechanical engineer from Mammendorf came up with the idea by chance.

Mammendorf -

A professional photographer was hired for Wolf's own wedding three years ago.

For fun, a relative also let the camera run and afterwards edited a video - with the most emotional moments, the specially choreographed wedding dance, the speeches and the many dances and sketches presented by the guests.

“It's an incredibly nice memory,” says Hannes Wolf about the video.

"It's great to have a souvenir like this."

It all started in Singapore

The next time he and his wife were invited to a wedding and were puzzled over a present, they had the idea of ​​giving the couple just such a film.

That was even more obvious because of the exciting location - the celebration took place in Singapore.

No sooner said than done - without having a clue, Hannes Wolf made his first wedding film.

In retrospect, he describes the result as "rudimentary".

But the couple who received the present were delighted.

In the meantime, the 34-year-old has registered a trade and officially runs his “wedding film manufacture” as a sideline.

He has already captured weddings in Fürstenfeldbruck and Hörbach in moving pictures.

His wife Constanze is often there as the second videographer, so that the film can be filmed from different perspectives.

The result should be concise and emotional

The small beginnings have grown into extensive equipment with professional cameras, image stabilization and sound recording devices.

The pastor and groom are usually equipped with clip-on microphones, and another recording device captures the atmosphere in the church.

On request, Wolf not only accompanies weddings and celebrations, but the whole day from getting dressed to the party in the evening.

He especially likes the moment when the bride and groom face each other for the first time in their wedding wardrobe.

"Nice words are often said there."

Post-production takes longer than the filming itself.

Because there are many hours of material to look through and the most beautiful moments to be put together into a final product that only takes four to eight minutes.

His first wedding film was two hours long, says Wolf.

But in the meantime he has come to the conclusion that “that is short, concise and emotionally better”: Regardless of this, he offers the couples packages in which all the speeches are also included in full.

Hannes Wolf is silent about the price for his films - each order is too individual for that.

However, he also admits that he does not want to scare anyone with numbers.

At least he reveals this much: his cheapest films are hardly more expensive than a good photographer.
