Last reviewed: August 11, 2026. SoWedding Photo and Cinema Productions is the confirmed business behind sowedding.ca, a Richmond-contacted studio whose official site presents it as a Vancouver wedding photographer and videographer. The site publishes active inquiry details and separate wedding photo and video sections.

The official portfolio navigation covers wedding-day photography and video, pre-wedding photography, engagement or save-the-date sessions, proposals, elopements, destination shoots and editorial styled shoots. This profile distinguishes what the business itself documents from details that still need a written quote or confirmation.

Services and specialization

SoWedding documents wedding photography and cinematography as its core offering. Its wedding-video portfolio identifies wedding-day, pre-wedding and engagement work, with cinematic films, wedding teasers, highlight videos and Same Day Edits shown among the formats. The FAQ further describes a cinematic highlight video as generally three to five minutes and a feature edit as generally eight to 15 minutes, depending on the couple’s preference.

Photography is represented through wedding-day galleries and the site’s pre-wedding portfolio. The latter describes sessions held weeks or months before the wedding and says its pre-wedding photoshoots are all-inclusive for makeup and dress. Couples considering a pre-wedding session should still ask what “all-inclusive” covers for their proposed location, styling and dates.

Service area and who it may suit

The official contact information gives a Richmond, British Columbia address, while the business describes its home as Vancouver, BC and uses Vancouver-focused page titles. Its published wedding examples include venues in Vancouver, Whistler, Chilliwack and elsewhere in British Columbia. Those examples demonstrate portfolio context, not a guaranteed local service boundary.

The site also states that the team travels for destination weddings and shows work outside British Columbia. This may suit couples who want one provider to discuss both still photography and video, including a destination or smaller celebration. Ask whether the proposed venue, travel dates and any travel-related costs can be accommodated before relying on the portfolio examples.

Confirmed strengths and practical limitations

A documented operational feature is the business’s separate photo and video coverage structure: its FAQ says the standard photography team includes a primary and secondary photographer, while the video team includes a primary and secondary videographer. It also states typical coverage is eight to 12 hours, with shorter options available. These are useful starting points for a scope discussion, not a substitute for a date-specific agreement.

The site outlines several tangible video deliverables, including a Same Day Edit, cinematic highlight video, feature edit, save-the-date video, and ceremony and reception edits. Its FAQ says raw wedding video footage can be provided if the couple supplies or buys a 500GB-or-larger external hard drive. Practical limits: the official pages do not publish a standard package matrix, current availability, travel fees, final turnaround commitments or a full list of inclusions for each service.

Pricing

Current wedding-day package pricing is not explicitly published. The official elopement page directs couples to contact the business for pricing, and the site does not provide a current, comparable rate card for wedding photography, videography or combined coverage.

The official FAQ states that a 20% non-refundable deposit is requested to reserve a wedding day, with full payment due a week before the wedding or at the latest on the wedding day. It lists cash, e-transfer, cheque and bank draft as payment methods. The site does publish prices for certain albums and canvas prints, but those products should not be treated as wedding-coverage pricing.

Current prices are not published on the official pages reviewed.

Contact and booking

SoWedding’s official site lists info@sowedding.ca and 604-809-1263, as well as a “Book a Meeting” or inquiry route. Its FAQ says consultations can be scheduled by email. The site encourages early booking after a proposal, but it does not publicly state date availability.

For a useful first inquiry, provide the wedding date, venue or city, approximate timeline, whether photography, videography or both are wanted, guest count where relevant, and any ceremony or reception requirements. For elopements or destination work, include the planned locations and travel dates so the quote can address the actual scope.

What couples should confirm

Before paying a deposit, ask SoWedding to identify the named lead and second shooters for the date, contracted coverage hours, exact deliverables, edit lengths, revision process, raw-footage arrangement and delivery timeline. Confirm whether a Same Day Edit is feasible for the venue schedule and whether ceremony and reception edits are included or optional.

Also request the total price in writing, including applicable taxes, travel or accommodation, overtime, album or print products, live streaming and any other add-ons. Confirm payment recipient, rescheduling and cancellation terms, liability insurance if the venue requires it, permissions for music and drones if applicable, and how the business will handle venue restrictions. These are practical booking checks; the official material reviewed does not answer all of them.
