Some panning shots are fine but instead of constantly moving the camera around, hold the shot still for 5–10 seconds. These clips look far more cinematic and give us beautiful footage to edit. Imagine you're taking a video version of a photo.

• Stand on the groom's side. You'll naturally capture the bride's face throughout the ceremony.
• During the signing, swap to the opposite side. You'll then capture both bride and groom.
