Musaab was the most amazing videographer we could have asked for to do our wedding video! From the details, to getting ready, the ceremony, celebration, he captured every important moment and made sure you could feel the raw emotion. (Me and my partner cry happy tears every time we watch it!) My wedding video has been a huge hit with family and friends (and even others online) who continuously compliment how our video looks like it came straight out of the movies! The cinematics are so smooth, there is no shakiness or graininess to the video whatsoever and the timeline flow is so beautiful! Everything about it exceeded my expectations. Also Musaab was great at giving us direction to get the perfect shots. He was very clear and thorough about what he needed us to do, but at the same time was gentle and not pushy or overbearing, which made it a fun experience for all of us! His personality is relaxed and fun, almost immediately after his arrival it was clear not only was he going to be a great fit but it was like he was already one of our friends and not just a vendor. Everyone in my bridal and grooms parties kept complimenting to me about how much they enjoyed Musaab being there. Choosing Unveiled Weddings Media is a choice you can’t go wrong with!

We take absolute pride of all our shoots and edits. With us, you see consistency and amazing storytelling/compositions We do not outsource my work to anybody. Videography by : Martin Shin Photography by :Kero & Itten

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Martin from start to finish was an absolute dream. He was very professional, communication was excellent, and he always found time to chat with us if we had any questions we wanted to talk through. We had big dreams of doing our first looks at Grand Central, and considering our wedding/prep was in Brooklyn, this was definitely not going to be an easy feat to squeeze in with the travel time. But Martin helped us make the timeline, and although we ended up falling behind schedule, still managed to get us there with the most amazing photos and videos. He and Kero are literally the coolest people we've ever met, and they made a full day of posing and smiling so much more fun and lighthearted. And everything we did was all part of such a smart plan - there were some poses/shots that in the moment we thought felt odd, but looking back at the final edits it all came together. Their team works on other projects outside of weddings, and you can really see their artistry come through in the finished products. Our wedding photos are beautifully edited, and really captured all the most important aspects of the day. And the candid shots we got from our reception truly convey the energy and excitement of the night. The videos are exceptional. From each new snippet that got released on social media, to the final products of our 10 minute highlight reel and full documentary, we can look back on our wedding and feel like we're watching a movie trailer or a music video. The way the clips were synced with the music was so magical, and it all just flowed in a way that makes so much sense. I would 1000% recommend Making Lab to anyone who is looking for both photography & videography for any event.

We loved working with Chelsea and Jack. The style of their photos was what we wanted—classic, timeless, natural and true to color. They were a joy to be around and while present, seemed to fade into the background, allowing us to be together and in the moment. However, we both felt like they became friends throughout the day. She sent us a sneak peak while we were on our honeymoon and we can’t wait to see more!

Awarded Best of Zola
Let me start off by saying I am pretty shy and am usually not the most photogenic gal out there. You can probably imagine how anxious I was going into our wedding planning - I was pretty worried about my awkwardness in front of a camera and the impact that would have on our wedding photos. But then I met LaDonna, and that all changed! She was so nice and professional in her approach and she really took the time to help me find my confidence in front of a camera. She was really patient and encouraging and was really great at giving me some direction early on at the beginning in teaching me how to look natural; by the time it came to our real sessions, I found I was hardly even thinking about my insecurities and instead found I was just living in the moment with my husband-to-be! I feel so much more comfortable and confident in myself after having worked with LaDonna - and I couldn’t be happier with the photos!! Thanks to her, I have beautiful pictures from our big day to cherish and the self confidence to keep taking photos with my husband to cherish our memories for a lifetime. So if you’re shy like me, this is for you!

Hi there! I’m Anthony Hagen, and I’m thrilled to connect with you! At Wedding Love Film, we believe that every couple has a one-of-a-kind love story, and we’re passionate about capturing it in a way that’s as unique and beautiful as your journey together. Our all-inclusive wedding videography service ensures that every special moment—from intimate glances to joyful celebrations—is captured with care and creativity. We aim to craft a cinematic masterpiece that authentically tells your love story, so you can relive the emotions and joy of your wedding day forever.

Anthony was easy to work with at the wedding. I was a DJ at the wedding I worked with him and from an artistic standpoint, what I saw of his work so far was great. Just like the rest of the vendors at this wedding, he went with the flow and went above and beyond to give the couple the best experience they could get especially under the crazy weather circumstances we had! Rain almost all day, thunderstorms, a tornado warning (it was an outdoor tent wedding) and some high winds that almost took out the tent! Despite that, he remained positive and fun. His needs from me were minimal (tapping into my sound system) and he made sure I wasn't busy when he asked me about it. If the rest of his work is as good as the little I've seen so far, you can't go wrong with his video service!

We had our wedding reception at a brewery and wanted some easy to eat sweet and salty snacks. These popcorn flavors were delicious, they sent us flavors to try before we decided. We chose 4 flavors and they shipped them right to our house. The popcorn buckets had our cute custom labels which they designed for us and looked PERFECT! We had tons of compliments on the popcorn. We ordered plenty and people were grabbing them to take home at the end of the night. A perfect snack after a few beers. Theu were very fast with the samples and the order too!

We feel so lucky to have found Andrew as our wedding photographer. He has an incredible eye for the editorial style and makes his photos into works of art with golden light and chiaroscuro. So many photographers just rely on their high-res equipment but don't offer anything more--I don't want a macro shot of every pore or line on my face like an owl in a tree at 100 yards, I want to have a sense of magic and beauty in every photo. Andrew actually does that. I almost cried when I saw our first look photos because I don't feel very confident being photographed and I finally had dozens of photos of myself and my husband that I want to share with friends immediately and cherish forever. He delivered the first look so fast, even though I know he was busy working another wedding; I thought for sure we would have to wait longer. The wedding package we chose included very nice touches like polaroids so we had something in hand at the end of the wedding day itself, too. It was very thoughtful and left us feeling good about the whole experience right away. He was very personal and nice to work with, but not intrusive, and went with the little schedule changes we had, and was open to suggestions while we took post-ceremony photos around the city. I couldn't be happier with our experience with him and would recommend him highly to anyone looking for a real artist for their wedding photography.

Welcome! I am a Kansas City Lifestyle, Portrait, and Wedding Photographer. Growing up I always had an eye for anything artistic and loved being able to share my vision of the world. I was first introduced to photography in my senior year of high school and immediately knew that is what I wanted my career to be. I continued the venture through college and graduated from UMKC with a degree in photography. A little about Noire Studios: Where does the name Noire Studios come from? I mixed my first name and last name (maiden) together - NO (from Noelle) and IRE (from Ireland). Creating a business from a few things that capture ME!

If I am not photographing, you will either find me in one of two places, a coffee shop or out in nature usually eating my favorite snacks in fish form (Swedish or Gold), or belting anything from musicals to early 2000s country (yes there is a difference) to 90’s hip hop jams.

Meredith is amazing! She's so easy to work with, she kept up with my neurotic emails and texts. She's great at communicating all details and scheduling. She is just the most down to earth soul you'll meet. She did a fantastic job at corralling my family for our group picture. I have a HUGE family, and it's not easy to get us all in one spot (especially with children and babies all over) But Meredith was so patient with us. She managed to get AMAZING shots in the chaos.

JCB Creative

  • Videographer
  • Cinematic style
  • Starts at $1,200
  • Serves Dayton, IA for additional fees

Here at JCB Creative, we're a creative services provider based in Lincoln, NE, specializing in photography, videography, and live event production services (livestreaming, IMAG, and audio-visual technology services). JCB Creative started long before it had a name, when it was just Josh and his camera. Eventually came a name, a logo, a website — and everyone needs a good sidekick :)

Atira and Josh at JCB Creative have truly become our go-to photographers and videographers for capturing life’s most precious moments. Whether it’s preserving memories or celebrating milestones, they consistently exceed our expectations. We’re even planning to have them photograph our first family photos soon! From the very first consultation, we knew we were in capable hands. Their genuine interest in understanding our hopes and needs transformed our experience from a mere business transaction to a warm collaboration with old friends. Atira and Josh’s commitment to excellence is evident in every interaction. But here’s where they truly shine: wedding superheroes! Picture this: everything is going smoothly until the cake topper box assembly turns into a chaotic cardboard disaster (clearly not their fault). Atira saw what was happening, swooped in, and somehow managed to assemble the unruly mess. That’s the kind of dedication you get when you choose JCB Creative. They pay attention to the smallest details and approach your wedding day with the same love, care, and willingness to help as a close friend or relative would. And when we received the final results, we were blown away. Atira and Josh have an eye for those magical moments—the raindrops on leaves captured early in the morning, the shots where they seem to be everywhere yet unobtrusive (almost like friendly ghosts). They’ve preserved memories we didn’t even know we wanted to remember, all with remarkable thoughtfulness and attention to detail. In summary, Atira and Josh at JCB Creative are more than photographers and videographers; they’re memory-makers, storytellers, and true artists. We’re forever grateful for their talent and passion.

I believe you can't stand behind your business unless you can say you fully understand it – and 24 years of marriage is proof that I KNOW LOVE. I set out to capture the essence of love when I started Parker Photography in 2018. I have been married to my best friend for the last 24 years, and people who meet us swear we are newlyweds. We still act like lovestruck teenagers with each other, that same feeling we get from every newly engaged couple that we meet. We know where our couples are coming from and what they hope to capture in their engagement sessions and on their wedding day, and we make it effortless for them to achieve their goals.

I have been coordinating events for 5+ years and fell in love with the methodical creation that comes from planning each different event. Each event is different and has it's own challenges which makes the entire process that much more exciting.

Audrei from Luxury Affairs was so helpful for our Day of Coordination on our wedding. She was flexible, communicative, and seemed to be everywhere we needed her to be! Audrei is very efficient and was able to be the eyes and ears that I couldn't be day of. She kept the whole day running smoothly and we are so appreciative! Thanks Audrei for making our wedding day perfect.

At Zest in Class, we believe every event deserves a touch of brilliance. Based in the heart of the Midwest, our event staffing company specializes in providing exceptional corporate event staff, event staffing, and convention staffing for sporting events, private functions, concerts, and more. Our mission is simple: to infuse every event with outstanding service and vibrant professionalism.

Setting up and planning everything with the person online was wondering and really gave me high hopes! Everything went super smoothly. They gave me a comprehensive shopping list and helped finesse all the recipes for our mocktail bar. Also checked in a few times prior to the wedding to make sure we were all on the same page. Now the bartender who came was a different story. She forget several of her tools needed including knives for all the garnishes. I had bought quite a bit of oranges, lemons, limes etc. She was also incredibly rude and several people remarked to me about that during the wedding day and after the wedding. She looked miserable and angry the whole time at the wedding. The only time I went to the bar, she wasn’t there and after about 10 minutes of waiting around, she came back and I asked to try all my mocktails and she gave me a judgy look and said that she was already made a drink for the bride earlier. I asked again and finally after my husband asked with me she made them but reluctantly. Mind you, this was a nonalcoholic bar. Overall liked Bucky’s, but the bartender was who worked with them was having an off day.

I love creating beautiful, custom wedding henna! From intricate, elaborate bridal mehndi designs to speedy, satisfying designs for guests, I love it all. I have studied Indian, North African, and Middle Eastern henna design in depth, and am happy to create designs in a broad range of strictly traditional styles, or to combine traditional patterns with more individualized, unique elements for a customized henna experience.

Awarded Best of Zola
I'd first met Heather at a Rhode Island PrideFest, and instantly saw how much talent she had. Every piece she did looked amazing, her precision was immaculate. I went to her several times over the years, and when my now wife and I began planning our wedding, I brought up the idea of having wedding henna done. My wife agreed, and I knew immediately that I needed to contact Heather. We met up with her at a nearby farm where she was holding a henna event, and she sat with us discussing what we would like done for the wedding for probably a half-hour or so. She sketched design ideas out, which we loved, and made a contract right then and there. Our wedding henna was stunning. We received so many compliments on it that night, and repeatedly after as it lasted beautifully for quite some time. We still get comments if someone sees wedding photos. Throughout the entire process, Heather was a dream to work with. Very kind and professional, she is exactly the caring presence a stressed bride-to-be needs.
