Chas and Elliot were the absolute BEST videographers we could have asked for to capture not just our wedding day, but also the special moments leading up to it. Their passion for their craft and the creative ideas they brought to life left us speechless when we watched the final video. Not only are they incredibly talented, but they are also some of the friendliest, most personable people we've ever met. From our first meeting, they made us feel completely at ease. As we were inexperienced with posing and camera presence, Chas and Elliot provided clear guidance and direction, which helped us feel comfortable and confident throughout the entire process. We were also really impressed with their investment in top-notch equipment. It's clear that they use the best gear available to ensure every shot is perfect, and it truly made a difference in the final product. The quality of the footage was incredible, and it showed their commitment to delivering nothing but the best for their clients. A San Jose hidden gem! Highly Recommended with no regrets.

Finisterre Visuals 

5.0

  • Documentary style

  • Serves Santa Clara, CA

So what does finisterre mean? Finisterre is Latin. If you know some Spanish, you’ll recognize two words squeezed into one: “fin” and “tierra,” essentially meaning the world’s end. Don’t worry, not in an apocalyptic sense of the word — it’s actually a place. It’s where the Romans once stood in modern-day Spain. They looked across the vast Atlantic Ocean, and thought to themselves “is this the end of the road?” Finisterre is an ode to that majestic feeling of unknown. Getting married is one of those unique experiences.

I cannot recommend Ryan and his team enough. 100/5 stars. He was absolutely AMAZING on our wedding day at the Hideout. Our wedding video is hands down, one of the greatest memories we have from our day. Ryan was able to capture the whole day without shoving a camera in our faces. My husband and I were able to actually enjoy the day and visit with everyone without having to miss any major moments for a film shoot. He blended with our crowd so effortlessly while capturing all the detailed moments throughout the whole day. Not only that, but Ryan and his team had to be adaptable during our wedding day. We had rain and hail which altered all of our plans for the ceremony and reception, but Ryan was able to shift and still capture the day beautifully. He was very communicative with editing our video and checked in to make sure we were happy with the final result. The care and detail he put into our video was so reflective of us - I can't thank him enough.

Cook Captures

  • Documentary style
  • Starts at $1,750
  • Serves Santa Clara, CA

Hi there, my name is Caleb but most people call me Cook. I spent almost 13 years in the southeast filming weddings, events, corporate gigs and commercials. I moved to California in 2012 and pursued a different career. A couple years ago I decided to get back into event videography and started Cook Captures. When shooting events I have a very hands off candid style. I love to capture people naturally having fun, enjoying the day and creating memories. Every event I film is unique and each film ends up with it’s own story and narrative that fit the couple, venue, guests and overall vibe of your wedding.

Awarded Best of Zola
Cook and Peter were so great to work with. I appreciated their understanding of how difficult the cost of weddings have gone up and how they were willing to cooperate reasonably throughout the whole process. Cook was able to capture all the shots I was hoping to have captured and his talent is truly evident. My husband and I were hoping to get some footage within the whole gallery of the not so “picture-perfect” to keep memories authentic and to see the natural candid side of our special day. Cook delivered that exactly through his videos. I truly recommend working with Cook if you are looking for someone to capture a meaningful event in your life. He is also so versatile in styles that he truly can provide you exactly what you are looking for or thinking through collaboration.

My name is Ben. I am a LA-based Wedding Filmmaker who runs on emotion-driven films that tell the story of you as a couple. The wedding day for sure! - But lets be honest, the wedding day is only whatit is because of who you are together before and after the day is done. Let's get some of that. That's the stuff that lasts longer than a few years after your wedding. The stuff your kids will pull out and watch.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Benjamin Thomas Film for our wedding videography was truly an incredible experience. Ben has a personable, easy-going and professional communication style that made us feel comfortable from our very first conversation. The attention to detail and high quality of his work is evident in the beautiful wedding video he created for us. Ben took the time to capture both of our personalities and showcased this in the video. He also added a personal touch by including a special section dedicated to my mother who is no longer with us, which is a memory that brings everyone to tears when watching our video. We love ending our anniversary each year by watching the video, and our guests always comment on how much fun was had on our special day when we post it online. Thank you for the memories, Ben!

Motel Cinema

  • Serves Santa Clara, CA for additional fees

Fueled by nostalgic recalling we aim to create a film that is timeless and authentic. Motel Cinema is based out of San Diego, Ca and our approach to weddings is inspired by the untraditional travelers before us, who hit the road in search of adventure into the unknown. We don't like boxes and we don't want wedding films that fit into one. If that tickles your fancy let's get weird.

Awarded Best of Zola
One of the best decisions we made for our wedding was to hire Motel Cinema! As an entertainment marketer, specifically for documentaries, how our wedding would be documented was top of mind for me and I met with quite a few videographers. Brandon completely exceeded my expectations with the moments he caught on film, the editing, the music, the vibe. I really felt like he saw us and reflected it all back to us in the most special way which we will cherish for the rest of our lives. He was an absolute joy to work with through the entire process- easy to communicate with and quick, but also a relaxed energy that fit seamlessly into our wedding weekend. I cannot recommend Motel Cinema enough and I’m so so grateful that we were connected.

Wedding videography is my side hustle. I love capturing peoples days and making them a product that they will have for years to come. I work in the entertainment industry full time and freelance video edit on the side. I also do photography as well. I do photography, videography and content creation.

Awarded Best of Zola
When we were initially planning our wedding I didn’t think getting a videographer was necessary. However, my now husband convinced we needed one. And as much it pains me to admit he was right about anything I’m so glad we got a videographer and not just any videographer but Kristiann. I really didn’t know what to expect but I can say that without equivocation she exceeded all expectations. She was communicative and always responded to questions immediately. When our first wedding had to be canceled 3 days before our original wedding date Kristiann was so kind and accommodating. When it came to our day finally arriving she was there early, professional and so friendly. She made us all feel comfortable and was not intrusive at all. After getting back our video not only was it beautifully made but it was so wonderful to see the moments she captured and the things we missed. Not only that but so many of our guests commented on how nice and wonderful she was. Without a doubt I would rebook and recommend Kristiann in a heartbeat.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are not joking when we say that we hired Saja from Mawaddah productions at 8:30 am on our wedding day after realizing that we almost made one of the biggest mistakes by not having a videographer. And this was definitely the BEST decision we made. We were amazed that Saja not only managed to travel two hours from Boston to Alstead New Hampshire with a last minute notice for the job, but also exceeded our expectations by capturing all these priceless and unforgettable moments with little to no preparation other than a timeline flyer a few hours beforehand. The cinematography is insane: she films so beautifully and candidly, and her attention to details is unparalleled. Through her art and vision, she was able to translate this day which needless to say, went by overwhelmingly fast, into such a beautiful beautiful endless everlasting memory that we can now forever replay. We ABSOLUTELY ADOREDDDD the teaser, the short wedding film and the feature film. We shared it with our entire families and friends and they are completely in love. The short wedding film is on constant repeat. We could not thank her and recommend her enough for her incredible work and talent.

HEYYY! *waves hands* We are Leandra + Clinton Cunanan, owners and lead videographers of Food + Cake Wedding Films. We are huge advocates for doing exactly what you want on your wedding day. We had the most epic wedding of all time (ask us about it!), but we didn't hire a videographer. And now this why we do what we do. It's the best feeling knowing each one of our couples will be able to relive their wedding day for the rest of their lives. We didn't have that, and now we get to give that to you!

I am so blown away by not only the quality of Clint and Leandra's work as videographers, but also what wonderful people they are! Not even halfway through our first zoom with them to talk about what packages they offer and our vision for the day I knew they were the perfect fit for us! Being with them on the wedding day felt like hanging out with old friends, they were amazing at blending in to the crowd to capture candid moments while also giving us prompts that created some of our favorite memories of the day. They worked so well with our other vendors and I don't think our day would have been complete without them. They are masters at what they do, and also the perfect people to have during a busy and, at times, stressful day (Leandra was able to bussle my dress when no one else could get the loop on the buttons AND snagged me some appetizers when I was resting my feet after the receiving line, she was a lifesaver!) My husband and I both teared up watching our trailer and highlight reel, and then happy cried getting to see our whole ceremony, private vows, speeches, and first dances. I know this is footage we’ll be so happy to look back on in the years to come, not just of my husband and I but of our whole families as well! I'm so happy we found Food Cake, you will not regret hiring this fantastic couple!
