Real Wedding Videographer Example

Meet Pam Kay: A wedding videographer based in the UAE who filmed regularly but was drowning in a backlog of unedited footage. As a first-time outsourcer, she was hesitant about whether an editing service could match her unique style.

After switching to WedWill's Creative Pro plan, she cleared her entire backlog in just one month - a 60% reduction in workload while maintaining her signature editing style.

In a single month, WedWill delivered 3 wedding highlights (7-8 minutes each), 1 ceremony edit, and 2 social media teasers - all with unlimited revisions.

"Amazing edits, fast turnaround time. Got to work with Pram who was an absolute gem and amazing at communication. Changes are quick, the platform for comments is easy to use and very specific. Overall exceeded my expectations, and got me out of a terribly long backlog."

What is the WedWill ROI Calculator?

The WedWill ROI Calculator is a free tool designed specifically for wedding videographers to calculate how much time and money they could save by outsourcing their video editing to WedWill. It provides personalized results based on your specific editing workload, hourly value, and business needs.

How accurate is the ROI Calculator?

The WedWill ROI Calculator provides a reliable estimate based on industry averages and data gathered from hundreds of wedding videographers we've worked with. However, actual time savings may vary depending on several factors including your editing style, project complexity, footage quality, and specific client requirements.

For complex weddings with multiple cameras, elaborate venues, or cultural ceremonies that require special editing considerations, the time savings may be even greater than estimated. Similarly, the calculator may not fully account for the time spent troubleshooting technical issues or managing client revisions, which are additional areas where our service provides significant value.

We've designed the calculator to use conservative estimates for most wedding videographers, but we recommend adjusting the hourly rate field to reflect your personal valuation of time if you have specialized skills or higher-than-average rates in your market.

How does the calculator determine which WedWill plan to recommend?

The calculator analyzes the types of edits you need (ceremony edits, highlights, cinematic films, etc.) and recommends the most appropriate plan. For basic editing needs, it suggests the Culling Pro plan. If you need highlight films or full-length edits, it recommends Creative Pro. For cinematic highlights and social media content, it suggests our Cinematic Pro plan.

What's the difference between "spreading edits across the year" and "completing edits in peak season"?

The calculator offers two calculation modes:

Spreading edits across the year: This assumes you'll distribute your editing workload throughout the entire year with one subscription that can be paused during off-seasons.

Completing edits in peak season: This calculates resources needed to complete all your edits within a 6-month peak season, potentially requiring multiple subscriptions for faster throughput.

How much time does the average wedding videographer spend editing?

Based on industry data, wedding videographers typically spend 3-4 hours editing ceremony footage, 10-20 hours on highlight films, 16-20 hours on full-length films, and 1-3 hours on social media teasers per wedding. A complete wedding package can take 30-40 hours of editing time.

Can outsourcing editing really increase my profits?

Absolutely. By outsourcing editing to WedWill, you can redirect your time to filming more weddings or growing your business. Our case studies show that videographers who switch to WedWill often increase their bookings by 40-60% while maintaining the same total working hours, resulting in significant profit increases.

What types of wedding video edits does WedWill handle?

WedWill handles all types of wedding video edits including ceremony edits, speech edits, highlight films (both chronological and cinematic), full-length films, and social media teasers. Our editors are skilled in various wedding video editing styles and can adapt to your specific preferences.

Can I try WedWill before committing to a monthly plan?

Yes, WedWill offers a 14-day risk-free trial for $199 that includes a 4-6 minute highlight video, color grading, sound mixing, a Premiere Pro file, unlimited revisions, and a 7-day money-back guarantee if you're not satisfied with the results.

What is "peak season" in wedding videography?

Peak season refers to the busiest months of the year for wedding bookings and filming. In most regions, this typically includes late spring through early fall (May to October), with the highest concentration of weddings occurring during summer months. During peak season, wedding videographers often find themselves filming multiple weddings per week, creating a significant editing backlog.

How does the WedWill ROI Calculator account for peak season?

The calculator offers two calculation modes to help you understand different approaches to handling your editing needs:

Year-round distribution: Spreads your editing workload across 12 months with one subscription

Peak season completion: Calculates resources needed to complete all editing within a condensed 6-month period.

The peak season option is particularly valuable if you:

• Film most or all of your weddings within a 6-month window
• Need faster turnaround during your busiest months
• Want to clear your editing queue before the next peak season begins

If I choose the peak season calculation, does that mean I need multiple subscriptions?

Not necessarily. The calculator will determine if your editing volume requires multiple subscriptions to complete within a 6-month timeframe.

Factors that influence this include:

• The total number of edits needed
• The complexity of those edits (full films vs. ceremony edits)
• WedWill's processing capacity (one request at a time per subscription)

Some videographers with moderate volume can process all their peak season edits with just one subscription, while others with higher volume may benefit from multiple subscriptions to handle concurrent editing requests.

How do I determine if I should use the "peak season" calculation mode?

Consider using the peak season calculation mode if:

• You film more than 60% of your weddings within a 6-month period
• Your clients expect delivery within 1-2 months of their wedding date
• You typically face editing backlogs during your busy months
• You want to completely clear your editing queue before the next busy season
• You value quicker turnaround even if it might require multiple subscriptions
