Solo wedding videographer? Hand off the edit, keep the shoot
When you are the only shooter, every wedding you book also books you an edit. WeddingEditor takes that second job: you upload the footage from the day in your browser, choose a Highlight Reel of about five minutes or a Social Teaser, and WeddingEditor's AI editing builds the edit, guided by your preference answers, before it lands in your project, typically 24 to 72 hours after processing starts.
Built for one person who films, edits, answers email and runs the business between weekends.
Free to sign up. You pay or use a plan credit only when you start an edit.

One shooter, one editor, the same person
The edit queue grows every Saturday
A solo shooter cannot film one wedding and edit another at the same time. Each booking adds editing days that compete with the next shoot, the next consult and the admin.
Every camera card is yours to sort
Two or three bodies and a gimbal all produce files only you have seen. Organizing them before you can even start cutting is its own evening.
No one to hand the timeline to
Studios can pass a project to an editor. A one-person business has nobody to delegate to, so a busy month means slower delivery to couples.
For a solo videographer, WeddingEditor works as the editor you never hired. Each wedding is its own project: you upload everything from the day without renaming or sorting it, describe in optional questions who and what matters most, and pay for that one edit or spend a credit from the Solo plan. WeddingEditor's AI editing builds the edit from exactly what you uploaded, you watch it in the app, and you decide what reaches your couple.
How WeddingEditor fits a one-person business
Nothing here assumes a staff. Every part of the workflow can be run by one person from a browser.
Solo plan
$99 per month, 1 wedding credit. Unused credits roll over up to 3, so a quiet month carries into a busy one.
One Wedding
$119 one-time for one wedding, with no subscription, for the months when you only have one wedding to hand off.
Upload straight from the cards
Video and audio files from every camera go into one project, with no limit on file count or total size and up to 5 GB per file.
Your priorities in writing
Optional questions cover the feel of the film, how speech and sound should balance, the people who matter most and anything to leave out.
Up to two revision rounds
Each full edit includes up to two revision rounds. Email your notes from the link in the app and the same edit is revised.

Review and deliver on your terms
Watch the edit in the app, download the MP4, and send revision notes if you need them. Nothing goes to your couple unless you send it.
When solo shooters use it
Back-to-back weekends
Two weddings in one weekend means two edits. Start the first project on Sunday night while you back up the second shoot.
Learn moreThe couple wants something short first
Order a Social Teaser for one wedding and keep the full edit for later as a separate project.
Learn moreYou still want the final pass
Bring the 1080p MP4 into your own editor for a color or title pass before you deliver.
Learn moreQuestions solo videographers ask
Do I need a team account to use WeddingEditor alone?
No. Sign up as one person and create a project for each wedding. Team upload links exist for people who shoot with others, but you never need one.
Which plan suits a solo shooter?
Solo gives you 1 wedding credit each month, rolling over up to 3. If you only edit an occasional wedding this way, One Wedding is $119 one-time for one wedding with no subscription.
Who actually edits my wedding?
WeddingEditor's AI editing makes the edit from your footage, guided by your preference answers, and it is delivered to your project. You stay the videographer your couple hired.
How long does an edit take?
Processing typically takes 24 to 72 hours from when you start it. There is no guaranteed turnaround, so leave room before a delivery date you promised.
Can I change something I do not like?
Yes. Every full edit includes up to two revision rounds; send your notes by email from the link in the app.
Will WeddingEditor contact my couple?
Never. The edit stays in your project until you download it and decide what to deliver.
