06 / Questions
Before you begin.
The details couples ask us most often, gathered in one place.
Are your films scripted or heavily directed?
Our direction responds to the people and atmosphere in front of us. We may offer more guidance for expressive imagery, or very little for an observational approach. In every case, we want you to remain present with one another while we preserve the day as it naturally unfolds.
How do we reserve our wedding date?
Send your details through the inquiry form. Once availability is confirmed, your date is secured only after the required agreement is signed and the initial payment is received. We accept one wedding per day and do not offer tentative reservations.
Do you also offer photography?
Studio Yanagi is dedicated to wedding filmmaking. Explore the photographers featured above for still images that can complement your Studio Yanagi film.
Are you available outside Manila?
Yes. We film throughout the Philippines and accept selected international celebrations. Fixed all-in rates are available for Baguio and Boracay; other destinations are confirmed after the schedule and travel needs are reviewed.
When will we receive our films?
A same-day edit is generally screened during the reception and polished within one week. Peak seasons may extend this to about two months. Kazehaya pre-wedding films take approximately 2–5 months; full wedding films, when availed, take approximately 8–12 months.
How long will our download links remain available?
Our online storage is refreshed every 2–3 months, so files may be removed without prior notice. Please download your films promptly and keep copies in at least two secure locations.
Are revisions included?
Three consolidated rounds of complimentary minor revisions are included per deliverable. Additional minor and major revisions are subject to the rates and terms stated in your agreement.
