BEHIND THE ARCHIVE

My love for filmmaking began back in Christmas 2007 when I unwrapped my very first Sony Handycam. From that moment on, I was obsessed with making films with my friends. That early passion led me to earn my degree in Television Production, and I’ve been working professionally as a video editor since 2021.

As a 2028 bride myself, I know how important it is to capture your big day, but also how expensive weddings can be. I created The Altar Archive to blend that nostalgic, vintage camcorder aesthetic with professional editing, giving couples a relaxed, authentic film of their wedding day, without breaking the bank!

COMMON QUESTIONS

HOW DOES SHIPPING AND RETURN WORK? +

Your kit arrives 2 days before your wedding in a secure presentation case. After your event, apply the pre-paid return label and drop off the kit at your nearest DPD Pickup Point on the first business day following your wedding (e.g., Monday for weekend weddings, or Friday for a Thursday wedding).

WHEN DO WE GET OUR FINAL EDITED FILM? +

Once we receive the returned kit, we edit your footage into a 3–5 minute highlight film (depending on total footage recorded) and deliver it via a high-resolution digital link within 2–3 weeks.

ARE THE CAMERAS EASY FOR GUESTS TO USE? +

Yes! We select Sony Handycams specifically because they are foolproof. Guests just flip open the LCD screen, press the record button, and start filming.
