I looked at SO MANY wedding videos and they were all so similar and cookie cutter. They were lacking something but I couldn’t put my finger on it. THEN I FOUND JIMMY SHIN.

We believe that your event is just one chapter of your story. It's about the bigger picture.

We cannot recommend Stacy highly enough. During the planning process, she provided fun and helpful suggestions and helped to keep us on track. We checked in with her regularly to make sure that preparations were moving along apace. On the day itself, everything went *incredibly* smoothly, and we were able to relax and enjoy the company of our guests, dance, eat and drink, and simply have a wonderful time -- because Stacy knew all the vendors and handled everything and anything that might have otherwise come our way. We loved working with her!

Hi, I'm Jesse, an award-winning, international wedding filmmaker. I love to tell stories in a strong and original way. My work today is all about STORYTELLING and the PEOPLE that help move your story along. I have been part of so many incredibly personal moments, memories, laughs, tears, and emotions over the past decade. I understand the magnitude of what it is I do. My passion is telling your unique story and I'd love to be the first and maybe only professional you hire to document your life!

I am truly so thankful for Jesse and his team. His talent in catching and documenting special moments on your wedding day is beyond what you can anticipate. The art of taking those special moments and forming a video with music and voice recordings from the ceremony and speeches is not something just anyone can do. I have to say, our wedding videos are BEYOND. The more we watch them, the more thankful we are to have hired Jesse and his team. Besides the fact that Jesse was so wonderful to work with from our first phone call to the day of our wedding, he is so kind and has amazing attention to detail. He caught everything on our video "wishlist" and gave us some of the best tips before the wedding. He asked for our vows, speeches, and ceremony script ahead of time and then incorporated video shots with special words as they are played. All around, incredible! I'd hire him again in a heartbeat and recommend him to no end!

HEY! I'M ASHLEY! Aka, Your Professional third wheel! I am so happy you dropped by! I am a uber bubbly, warm hearted, person who loves to order 3 drinks at Dutch Bros and say its for other people but really its just for me. When I am not spending my lifes savings at Dutch Bros, I am professionally following peeps in love and photographing their stories. I am a lover of true crime and murder podcasts! (But I mean who isnt! I just cant help it!) FUN FACT: I speak switzerdütsch, aka a German slang. My mom is originally from Switzerland and my dad from Jamaica, so you know I am always hungry for adventures (and new places to binge eat at).

Ashley is one of the most caring photographers I’ve ever had. She really went above and beyond even before I booked her. She sent out a timeline of how my session was going to go and even send me suggestions of what to wear. Then came the session, she made me really comfortable in my own skin and made me giggle so much with her awesome humor. I was really worried about how I would look, but when I saw the photos I was so happy I almost cried! She got all my best angles and captured my true personality in those photos!! If you want someone that goes above and beyond, takes care of your needs, and is FUN to work with and captures your best angles, SHE IS THE ONE!!!

Film holds power. It captures mountain breezes through veils, secret shared smiles and zany dance moves. Most importantly, it brings it all back to life. Over the past 10 years here at Zweifel Studios we have been compelled by the power of Story. We've made films about people, businesses, surfing, lifestyle - everything. But bearing witness to weddings - major milestones in the lives of others - are uniquely vulnerable and joyful occasions. These films inherently hold deep meaning and are often looked at for the rest of peoples lives - giving us a sense of responsibility to do our best each and every time.

Ryland and Sarah (Zweifel Studios) were amazing to have with us on our big day. They were fun, made us feel at ease, and were always in the right place but never in the way. Our film captured us perfectly down to the last detail. Can't recommend enough!

Awarded Best of Zola
Finding the right videographer was incredibly important to us because we wanted more than just photos. We wanted to capture the voices, the laughter, the tears, the movement—every emotion that made our day unforgettable. At first, we struggled to find a connection with the work we saw, but after months of searching online, we came across Alex V Films, and his work left a lasting impression on us. It was exactly what we had been searching for. From the moment we met Alex, his warm personality and passion for his craft put us completely at ease. He took the time to understand our vision, showing incredible attention to detail and truly listening to what we wanted. His talent for capturing not only the big moments but also those small, candid interactions brought everything to life in a way we could only dream of. Alex was able to beautifully weave our vows into the movement and storytelling of our film, bringing each word to life. In my vows, I shared a memory about my papa. As he approached his final days, I asked him, “Papa, what can you tell me about love?” He gently touched his chest and said, “You feel it in your heart.” Alex captured this moment with such care; as I spoke the words, “my papa touched his chest,” the video transitioned to my wife, sliding her hand gently down my chest, mirroring my papa’s gesture. It was as if he had breathed life into our vows, capturing not just the words, but the emotion and legacy behind them. Alex made the experience of working with him enjoyable. Throughout the process, his communication was top-notch, and professionalism shone through every step of the way. He was attentive of our needs and made the process easy. Alex didn’t just record our day—he captured its essence. Every look, every laugh, every precious detail we wanted to hold onto is now a part of a beautiful memory we’ll cherish for a lifetime. These are moments that photos alone could never fully capture; they’re filled with emotions that will be felt and connected to for years to come. At the beginning of this process, Alex was a stranger. As we got to know him we felt as though he became a friend. We’re forever grateful to have found Alex, who created more than just a video—he created a keepsake of our love and joy that we will cherish for a lifetime.

I’ve always had a passion for telling stories. Weddings give me the perfect medium to tell the most spectacular and memorable stories of all. I’ve owned my company for over a decade and I’ve loved every minute of it. Love stories are such a wonderful thing to film and I have never felt more honored than when a couple trusts me to capture their big day. My wife and I got married among the giants of Sequoia and King's Canyon National Park in October of 2019. I feel, now, that I can fully understand the breadth of emotions a couple goes through on their wedding day, and I am humbled to know I am near such experiences every time I film a wedding.

Ephraim is THE BEST! He was recommended to us by a photographer, and we knew we wanted to work with him as soon as we saw his work. He was super helpful and easy to communicate with - meeting with us to talk through any details we wanted captured, logistics of the day of the wedding, and offering ideas we hadn’t even thought of. Not only does Ephraim have a great eye for film, but he also made us feel so comfortable and just be ourselves in front of the camera. Our wedding film is beautiful and could not be any more perfect! We can’t wait to watch it over and over and relive our special day. Thank you Ephraim!!

Andrew and his second shooter were very nice and helped make suggestions to create great clips for the film. They captured the key parts of our special day and seamlessly wove it together to create a video that showed the highlights as well as the entirety of our ceremony, first dance, and toasts. Andrew went above and beyond by surprising us with a tablet that was placed in a cover that had our wedding photo on it. Now we can reminisce on our special day any time we want.

Eyes of Ian Media is a wedding video/photo company based in Los Angeles that is committing the most important memories of your wedding into a timeless moment you'll treasure forever. I am dedicated and passionate about capturing and crafting every distinctive moment in the highest quality.

I came across Ianʻs IG when I was trying to look for videographers. I really liked his content and messaged him right away. He was always super fast in his responses and answered all of my questions. I even asked him to live stream my wedding, which he hadnʻt done before, but did what he could to make it happen. Sadly, he was not able to have someone help him on the day of my wedding which resulted him in trying to do everything I asked on his own. It was really difficult for him to film, live stream, and include drone footage but he did his best and I appreciated him for all of the effort he put in. I got my video back rather quickly and was very happy with it. Ian is a wonderful videographer and is super amazing to work with. He even took one of the best pictures of my husband and I and sent it to us (we loved that picture a lot). You canʻt go wrong with Ian and I hope you all go to him for your video needs!
