Can I have the original wedding video?

Of course.

If you have hired a professional wedding cameraman/photographer to take videos and photos for you during the wedding, you can usually provide the original videos and photos according to the requirements of the general contract. However, when you sign a contract with a photographer, you need to read the terms of the contract carefully, which involve copyright, privacy protection and other related matters of using videos and photos. Before asking for the original video, in order to avoid copyright problems, please confirm with the cameraman and ensure that you have the right to use the original video.

In addition, the memory of the original video is very large, so you need to make sure that you have enough storage space to store these videos. The best way is to discuss this matter with the photographer before signing the contract, and clearly stipulate when to provide the original video and other detailed terms in the contract. This can ensure that the rights and interests of you and your photographer are protected when using videos and photos, and can reduce disputes and contradictions in the event of accidents.
