At Focuz Studios, we strive to provide the best wedding photography experience, and that starts with our equipment. We believe in using top-of-the-line cameras and lenses to capture your special moments. Our commitment to quality and craftsmanship ensures that every shot is taken with precision and attention to detail.

As brand ambassadors of Canon India , we proudly utilize Canon cameras and lenses, renowned for their exceptional image quality and reliability. In addition, we incorporate leading brands such as DJI, GoPro, Manfrotto, Rode, Smallrig, Jenie Beauty Box, WestCott, and ThinkTank Photo, which further enhance our capabilities.

We understand that the combination of skillful photography and high-quality equipment plays a crucial role in delivering stunning results. Rest assured, we have invested in top-notch gear to provide you with remarkable images that will be cherished for a lifetime.

We understand that music plays a significant role in setting the mood for your traditional wedding video. However, we strongly advise against using movie songs as background music. Movie songs are often associated with a specific time period and can become outdated and less enjoyable to listen to after several years.

To ensure that your wedding video stands the test of time and remains enjoyable for generations to come, we recommend using timeless instrumental music or wedding-specific tracks. By choosing music that is not tied to a particular era or trend, we can create a video that evokes emotions and allows you to relive the precious moments without the distraction of dated songs.

Let us help you select the perfect music that will enhance the beauty and significance of your traditional wedding video, ensuring a timeless and enjoyable viewing experience for you and future generations.

We strongly recommend against using movie songs as background music for traditional videos that run for hours. There is a risk of unexpected inappropriate words in the track, and often the song doesn't match the footage, creating an awkward viewing experience. Moreover, decades later, the music choice may seem funny and prevent you from fully reliving the moment. Avoid using movie songs in traditional/conventional videos.

Well of course. ‘Normal’ aka ‘Traditional’ photographers are part of our team as well. No bling, no montage. Just conventions are done with perfection. Hire us 🙂
