My husband and I got married in Monterey, CA in May 2024 and we chose Junior Films as our videographer for our wedding. We could not be happier with our decision to work with Arturo on our wedding day! Like many couples, we initially thought we didn't need a videographer because we hired a photographer. However, after further discussion, we decided to explore adding a videographer to our special day. After meeting with Arturo from Junior Films and seeing his work, we knew that we wanted to hire him to film our wedding. This decision was truly one of the best decisions that we made during our wedding planning process! I lost track of how many times I said throughout the weekend - “I am so happy we decided to hire Art as our videographer because now we have this on film!” In our meetings leading up to the wedding, Arturo made sure he knew exactly what we wanted to capture and who we wanted to film the most on our big day.He is very dedicated to his work and will go the extra mile to get the necessary footage to best document the magic of the weekend events. He also worked closely with the DJ, photographer, venue coordinator & wedding planner to put our vision to video. On the wedding day, I was very impressed by his attention to detail while filming these once in a lifetime moments. Our wedding truly went by so fast - and even though we tried to be as present as possible - we couldn’t be everywhere at once - so we still missed major moments amongst our guests that happened on our big day. Luckily these moments were caught on film! Plus, as we were actively living through all of the raw emotions in real time on our wedding day - it is reassuring and invaluable to know that we have all of those raw emotions, reactions, and voices of loved ones beautifully captured on film thanks to Junior Films! We look forward to rewatching this footage for years to come!

My name is Preston LaMar Before starting my company in 2021, I was a theatre arts major and actor. I spent 4 years studying acting, lighting, sound, set design, and wardrobe. I had one major goal in mind. I did not want to create the typical cliche films that are out there. I wanted to create videos that were divergent while staying true to an original cinema ambiance. within every video I create there is always a different approach, I strive to be as creative as I can, and always use new themes and artistic choices.

Thank you so much! LaMar productions did an amazing job! We entrusted 100% of our wedding day videos to them, and they definitely made sure that every moment of our wedding was captured! They devoted their time and energy to capturing our big day! They are very creative, organized, detail oriented, dependable, honest, understanding, professional, and trustworthy! We love working with them, and they suggested great ideas for our wedding videos, and they communicated and worked well with our photographer. We are so happy that we picked Preston our lead videographer. We definitely recommend LaMar productions to all of our friends! We can't wait to see the final videos

We got married in the midst of quarantine, back before Zoom Weddings were the norm, and loved our experience with the UncommonWeddings team! While there were so many unknowns, Leo and Kevin, our videographers, came out in full force and made everything a breeze and joy. They were resourceful - we had a drive-by reception - and they pulled out the drone and captured the car parade and our guests dancing with us in their cars. The video they created for us is beautiful and we will treasure it forever. Our team was a joy to spend the day with. While they were quiet presences who worked behind the scenes to film our day, they were great, friendly, warm people. Since our guests were only our immediate family who left directly after the ceremony (to maintain social distancing and safety), our creative team was our sole companions for the entirety of our day. For this reason, I consider Kev and Leo to be our friends who made our day absolutely unforgettable. Thank you, Uncommon Weddings!

My wedding planner introduced me to Desmond and Fine Art Wedding Film when I was looking for a videographer for my wedding, and my experience with Desmond and his team on the special day has been nothing but a wonderful pleasure. Desmond is probably the nicest person I've ever met and he was so patient towards us during the entire process. In the beginning, he sent us a very detailed questionnaire so he can gauge what's important to us, and if there is anything the team needs to avoid (which was super thoughtful because there were a few things I was really self conscious about). I met Desmond for the first time on my wedding day (we've had multiple emails and phone calls exchanges before that), and even though I was a busy bride, he showed me sooo much grace and kindness. My very introverted mom LOVED him because of how easy to get along he was. When we got the videos back from our wedding, you can tell that he spent a lot of time and love to making them, and my entire family cried at the beautiful footage and editing we got back. He also sent us a very beautiful package with a USB and hard drive with all of out special memories in it. Thank you so much Desmond and the crew at Fine Art Wedding Film for being such an important part of our once-in-a-lifetime event. Thank you for not only the videos, but for your kindness and professionalism that every person should have on their special day.

The service was excellent, I especially want to point out the drone shots that made our wedding video so much better. The drone operator used it during the ceremony, at a park during cocktail hour, and pretty much used any opportunity to get more drone shots. Seriously, the way they used those shots was on another level! Our wedding looks like a blockbuster film!

From the moment we began working with Hector David and Ebullient Memories Films we knew we had made the right choice in our wedding videographer. He took the time to really get to know us, our story as a couple, and our hobbies. We even found some shared interests, like traveling to Japan and watching Formula One racing! Each email felt warm and sincere, like we were talking to a friend. Hector was also very thorough in finding out exactly what kind of shots we wanted him to film. On the day of our wedding, it could not have gone smoother. Hector and his team were very professional, but also made us feel extremely comfortable the entire time. We thought it would be awkward to be in front of the camera, but we hardly even noticed they were there. It was amazing how they were able to capture the essence of our entire wedding day on film! Four months after our wedding, we traveled to Hawaii for a second wedding reception with family members there that were not able to make it to the actual wedding in California. Hector was able to get our wedding short film finished by then and we were able to play it for our guests at the reception. It was a perfect way to share our wedding day with them! They really felt like they were there! We truly loved working with Hector and would definitely recommend him in the future! We will be cherishing these special memories from our wedding for years to come, all thanks to Hector and his amazing team!

As a photographer, I've worked with Matthieu many times both as a partner, working side by side on corporate gigs, weddings, and also as a customer, asking his support creating content for my own business. I recommend Cinematt Films to any of my own wedding or corporate/event planners who are looking for high-end professional videography coverage. Working with Matthieu is always collaborative. We've always been able to articulate our needs during a project, and work together to ensure we both are capturing the content that we need. I also hired Matthieu to create a 2 minute video reel featuring my business. I appreciated Matthieu's guidance in the pre-production phase, his flexibility in the filming phase, and then finally the timeliness and efficient nature of the editing process after the fact. We were thrilled with the results and have been using that video to communicate with our clients ever since. You'll be doing yourself a favor asking Matthieu to be the person to help create your film.

From the moment we first spoke to him, he was friendly, professional, and so passionate about his craft.

Our wedding business started out with me shooting a wedding video for a very dear friend of mine in 2017. I posted the video to a Facebook business page and BOOM! It received 200,000 views and we started receiving hundreds of inquiries from couples around the PNW. Every year I would book 30-40 weddings doing photo and video for couples. When COVID struck, we had a year crashing into the next year. We had to adapt. So I grew our company to 8 teams of pro photographers/videographers to cover weddings around the US.

I worked with videographer Nile Sprague this summer as the photographer for Ben and Kimberley's wedding and I knew after that day that I wanted to collaborate with Nile on future photo/video projects. It was clear from the beginning that Nile was there to tell the unique story of this couple's wedding and not to impose his own preconceived notions. Looking at the short preview video he made for Ben and Kimberley within a week, I was deeply moved by his attention to subtle facial expressions, beautiful captures of the late afternoon light and his skillful editing that drew me in with its rhythmic sequences. When clients ask for a videographer, I highly recommend Nile and send a link to his online portfolio.

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.

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.

If you're here, then you are probably looking for a wedding videographer. And there's so many out there that it's tough to choose which one will be a good fit for your wedding day. But too often, videographers make the same type of wedding films that aren't that different from the other hundreds out there making the videos feel generic, unauthentic, and boring. Meaning it's hard to differentiate all the videographers you see when on the search.

1920 Video 

4.8

  • Vintage style
  • Serves Santa Cruz, CA

Ever since I was a child it has been my dream to become a filmmaker. I love sharing my passion for film with my clients to produce stunning, high quality videos that can be cherished forever. My unique style of filming allows me to capture moments that would otherwise go undocumented and lost forever. Growing up on the Central Coast gave me an appreciation for the serene beauty of nature that I strive to capture with all my films. I currently live in Los Angeles where I work in film and tv, most notably on the Emmy winning show Abbott Elementary.

I am so glad that we booked 1920 video. After speaking with Brandt I knew it was a good fit because he understood my vision for our wedding video. I could tell he had a passion for storytelling and the art of filmmaking. He was able to capture our love story and delivered a beautiful work of art that we can cherish for the years to come.

We owe Eyeconik an apology for such a late recommendation! We cannot say enough awesome things about Kanoa and Sara. The vision and creativity in their work is so refreshing. For our engagement shoot, Kanoa and Sara literally drove us around SF ( I'm talking like 4 different locations!) and produced shots that we are thankful to have for the rest of our lives. These people can take ordinary, boring backdrops and flip it into something special. That is what you will get with Eyeconik. Their creativity and imagination is something we appreciated so much! Its been a full year since our wedding. We still remain in awe with the images that Eyeconik gave us. We are so thankful to have met Kanoa and Sara, and we are forever grateful for the wonderful memories they have captured for us! Eyeconik should be shooting your photos!

The Goodfolk Film Co. 

5.0

  • Cinematic style
  • Serves Santa Cruz, CA

When I first started shooting lots of weddings, I would wake up the next day after a shoot and my wife would ask me how went. “It was insanely cool, and everybody there seemed like SUCH GOOD FOLK,” was a phrase I would almost always use to describe a somewhat ineffable feeling of being surrounded by GOODNESS. Goodness is often found at weddings, and it’s that goodness that we try to find with our cameras, microphones, lights, eyeballs and ears. That's how I came up with the name of my business. Meeting amazing people in beautiful places is what fuels my passion for wedding videography!

Awarded Best of Zola
The most important word I can use to describe The Good Fold Film Co. is DOPE. I get so excited whenever I have the opportunity to work with Mauricio and his team because I know the end result is going to be DOPE. TGFFC is professional, communicative, we bounce awesome ideas off each other, and he always finds a way to make the end video totally in sync with the personality of the couple, which, no matter what, is always DOPE. I try to recommend using The Good Folk for every wedding I book. If you're looking for something outside the box, something intimate and personal, and a video you want to watch all the time, The Good Folk Film Co. are your people.

Lost Generation Pictures

  • Storytelling style
  • Serves Santa Cruz, CA

We are a husband and wife videography team. Dominic received his MFA in Film Directing from the Academy of Art in San Francisco and has over 10 years of videography experience. We got married on January 6, 2018 and quickly realized we had made a big mistake not hiring a wedding videographer to capture our day. We decided to start our own video production business and provide quality wedding videography services to make sure other couples have a wedding film to help them remember all the special moments of their most special day. We are passionate about filmmaking and can't wait to hear more about your love story!

Lost Generation partner team Emily and Dominic are just the absolute best! They were our wedding videographers and we are so happy they were referred by a friend who also raved about their work. They were very professional, responsive, punctual, very easy to communicate with, always responsive with emails and took their time over zoom calls in understanding what we wanted for our videos. We wanted a natural, documentary style video and Emily and Dominic delivered. They always had our best interest in mind; they never upsold us on anything and we were more than happy with the videos they created! Not only did they work great with us, but with the other wedding vendors. With a different photographer, they worked so well together and made everything work out so smoothly which resulted in amazing videos and photos. And they're a great value! We started with a package but added more after receiving the trailers and can see the high quality work they've put together. Hire Lost Generation as your next videographers, you won't regret it!
