DJ Assistant / BTS Content

For many of our events, especially those booking add-on services (lights, photobooth, live musicianship, etc) we’ll often bring a DJ assistant to…

• speed up load-in / load out and allow our DJs to be in 2 places at once when need be

• capture behind the scenes content for our website / future vlogs etc

We are aware that some photographers include exclusivity clauses. Though our client contracts permit us to collect content, the client’s media is always priority.

It is not our intention to misrepresent ourselves as the client’s photo / video team, a few notes below:

• Our content is rarely seen by event attendees though used to demonstrate quality of service to new inquiries and educate upcoming clients with visual aids from previous events at their same venue.

• There are handful of hidden pages within the Aisle Finesse website like this one you’re seeing now. Whenever we work with a new venue, collect content, and then receive a new inquiry for the same venue will often upload content to hidden page to show these clients our past experience.

• We are slow to post on social media and will not post edited content before their hired artists.

As per our process…

• We are often more active prior to guest arrival & during the dancefloor (after special dances etc).

  • We have little use for in depth content of the actual ceremony, toasts, etc.

• We may set up cameras to film our musicians during pre-ceremony / processional and our DJs during the grand entrance to showcase MC work.

• We shoot a mix of photo & video though neither of which have the same goal as their hired visual media artists. We are not shooting to boost our video / photo portfolios but to show our team members in action.

We aim to stay in the shadows, shoot from a distance, and capture shots that give a sense of place to our DJ set ups in comparison to the flow of an event.

We won’t intentionally photograph / film other vendors except those we work with frequently or ask us to. If interested in raw files please let us know beforehand, happy to share!

We appreciate your hospitality as we build our brand & community one event at a time.
