Step 6: Get ready for your call with your consultant! This post offers great tips on preparing for your consultation phone call.

*Remember, it’s definitely best to have your timeline, event priorities (prep, sparkler send-off, etc) in front of you during the call so you can give your consultant all the necessary information! We would hate to miss out on capturing any extra-special moments!*
Step 7: Call time! If the call ends with you and the consultant agreeing on the perfect package, ask the consultant to send you a contract via email. Hooray – you’re ready to officially book NST Pictures as your wedding cinematographer! Continue onto this post for the next steps!
Alternatively…
Scenario: The call ends with you on the fence with a big decision to ponder about. Maybe you’re debating between two flex options that the consultant suggested and you aren’t ready to commit to a contract yet. Maybe you’re not sure just yet if you want prep covered, or you can’t decide if having multiple cinematographers or additional coverage time is more important. Maybe you just need some time to shuffle budget around. Don’t worry – we’ll be happy to work with you as you figure out what you want, but in the meantime, check out these articles that may help you make a decision on wedding videography:
