Photo + Film Bundles
For couples who want both cinematic storytelling and beautiful stills — with one coordinated team, one plan, and a smooth experience from start to finish.
What a bundle means at Mendocino Photo & Video
Most couples hire me primarily for filmmaking. When you add photography, you’re getting a cohesive approach — consistent direction, aligned timelines, and a calm presence that keeps the day feeling natural.
Depending on your wedding and what you want, photography may be provided by me directly or by a trusted photographer I coordinate with. Either way, you’ll get a unified plan and a team that works well together.
Why couples choose Photo + Film
- One coordinated plan — fewer emails, fewer moving parts, fewer gaps in coverage.
- Better collaboration — photo and video work together instead of competing for time and space.
- Stronger storytelling — coverage is designed as one experience, not two separate vendors.
- Calm, documentary approach — real moments over forced posing.
What’s typically included
Bundle coverage is customized, but most include:
- Photo coverage that prioritizes natural moments, relationships, and the overall feel of the day
- Video coverage with cinematic visuals, clean audio, and intentional storytelling
- A shared timeline plan so portraits, family photos, and key moments flow smoothly
- One clear point of contact for planning and logistics
Specific deliverables and coverage hours vary by collection — please see the Pricing page for current options.
