DJ Cam truly went above and beyond! As a bride who knows how to micromanage, I never felt that way with DJ Cam. He perfectly captured the music vibe my fiancé and I love and delivered an incredible performance. We wanted the music to naturally draw people to the dance floor without any emcee work, and DJ Cam nailed it with a fantastic set list. He avoided the typical "wedding-y" songs and created the party atmosphere we dreamed of. DJ Cam was super responsive via email, text, and phone, and his fun yet professional demeanor made everything smooth. He arrived early to set up and handle any potential challenges, ensuring a relaxed and enjoyable evening. We felt completely at ease knowing he had everything under control.

I can't thank her enough for her outstanding professional work!!! Alison perfectly achieved the soft curls and half ponytail I wanted, and her work lasted all day!!!! I danced, sweated, and even did pirouettes, yet my hair and curlers remained impeccable! (This is especially impressive since my natural hair is extremely straight!). They were professional, punctual, kind, and patient. One advantage for me was that they had previously worked at Park Chateau, making navigating the venue easy. Overall, communication with Alison and her team was excellent and prompt. My mom and bridesmaid LOVED their hair and makeup as well. My mom kept saying she couldn't believe how good it looked—it was like she had an Instagram filter on! I highly recommend her 100000000000!! I am incredibly grateful!!!!

They were so kind and caring the day of, making sure we loved our chuppah and everything. We cannot recommend this team enough, we already are telling our friends getting married that they have to check them out. Also, reasonably priced considering how gorgeous their work is!

Hello! My name is Fen, nice to meet you online! I’m a freelance cinematographer and editor. I split my time between shooting weddings and indie films. I enjoy doing both because I love the thrill of operating a camera and I love people and stories! I have shot over 300 weddings and I edit everything myself. In my spare time I love swimming, hiking, skiing, traveling with my family, writing and learning all kinds of stuff. I’m very curious about the world!

Awarded Best of Zola
Fen was so amazing to work with, two important things we wanted from our videographer were to have RAW footage included in our price and on our wedding day to basically not even know they were there. Fen did both of those, she was extremely reasonable with pricing and so easy going leading up to the wedding day and throughout it. Fen easily blends into the background unlike most videographers that you can find yourself bumping into on the dance floor. If you're looking for a kind, easy going and professional videographer for a more than decent price Fen is the best choice!
