Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot stress enough how much we recommend Alex and NY Wedding Films! He did an absolutely incredible job capturing footage surreptitiously throughout our wedding day, and then producing the most wonderful highlight reels. They are so beautifully done and we will treasure them always. We almost didn't book a videographer because of our budget concerns, but the prices are so reasonable, and the value of the product is beyond measure. Thank you for everything, Alex! If I could give 10 stars here I would!

Cook Captures 

5.0

  • Documentary style
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves El Monte, 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 is super easy going and easy to get along with. His work also speaks for itself, it’s high quality and exactly what you want! He captures people in the entirety and a good turn around time. I would highly recommend him to everyone!

  • Serves El Monte, CA

Based in Southern California - filming wherever your love goes. With 5 years as a professional videographer, I discovered a passion for filming weddings and documenting moments that’ll last forever. I have a background in video production and as a colorist as well as a degree in Film Production from NYU.

KS Media Productions were an absolute delight to work with for our wedding videography. From the start, their communication was always punctual, professional, and courteous. Kristi and Karina were amazing to collaborate with - they meshed so well with our photographer and made the entire experience 10 times better. My husband is usually quite shy, but they made him feel completely comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera. The final product they delivered was truly top-notch and so heart-warming. Kristi was also incredibly responsive throughout the process and captured our wedding day perfectly. We could not be happier with the magical highlight video they created for us. Highly recommend KS Media Productions to any couple looking for exceptional videography for their special day!

  • Serves El Monte, CA

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
Ben is such a talented videographer! We are super happy with the film and had a great experience working with him. His artistic take on editing and music makes the film an emotion triggering art piece. We also really appreciate his support during the pandemic. We had to reschedule twice during the whole process, not only was he flexible, he didn't even raise the price after two years and flew all the way to Seattle for our wedding. Thank you, Ben!

We are so happy we went with the Shalom Imaginative for our big day and highly recommend them to anyone in need of photographers!

550Park Luxury Wedding Films

  • Documentary style

  • Serves El Monte, CA

Brent is considered one of the top wedding cinematographers based out of the Northeastern USA. He frequently travels the globe, documenting weddings for couples who deserve the best of the best. After growing up in Central Jersey, Brent chose to move down to Nashville for college and then shortly after graduation, officially founded 550Park out of New York City. He is a passionate tennis player, chef, and world adventurer.

Awarded Best of Zola
We found 550Park at a wedding show. At the time, I was not looking nor interested in hiring a videographer. Brent asked me to have a look at a highlight reel, and it instantly gave me chills. After some long nights of thinking about this video, we decided we could not live WITHOUT this. We made room in our budget to add this and realized that capturing this day is actually priceless. The first time I watched our highlight reel, it gave me such an adrenaline rush. Our friends had goosebumps and tears. I can't stop watching it. He really caught all the moments that I adored... and barely remember! Everything looked so beautiful, and everyone had so much fun... more than I even realized. We are able to relive and remember the day that took over a year to plan. Brent's filming and editing skills are unsurpassed. The video quality, the extra time he took to capture the beauty of the venue and the scenery, shots of the guests and wedding party along with us (bride and groom). The video was everything we could have ever wanted and so much more. My friends said they wished they would have hired him for their weddings...

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.

I watch the video over and over and cry my eyes out! Getting a videographer was the #1 best decision and the 2nd best was hiring Motel Cinema!! Worth every penny & then some! Will definitely be hiring him again for our vow renewals & special events!!! He’s also super fun to hang out with!! Thank you Brandon for everything! -The Congers

Scarpace Weddings

  • Serves El Monte, CA

My journey as a wedding videographer is driven by a deep ethical commitment to provide a service that is not only professional but also heartfelt and responsible. I understand that your wedding day is one of the most significant moments in your life, and my approach is rooted in capturing these memories with the utmost care and sincerity. I pride myself on transparency, ensuring that every couple knows exactly what to expect from my services. From clear communication to respecting your privacy and preferences, my goal is to create a trusting relationship with every client.

Recently, in early 2023, I had the joy of experiencing my wedding day, and I must say, it was made infinitely more memorable thanks to the exceptional work of Scarpace Videographers. Justin and his team were nothing short of phenomenal. Their attention to detail, creative eye for shots, and overall professionalism were evident throughout the day. One of the most remarkable aspects of their service was how they managed to capture the essence of our special day. The day itself flew by in a blur of joy and celebration, leaving me with fleeting memories of those precious moments. However, Scarpace Videographers skillfully captured all those little, yet significant moments, ensuring that every smile, tear, and laugh was beautifully recorded.

Bruce captured everything and you never even knew he was there, worked well with the photographer and is nothing but professional. Bonus, the prices are incredible reasonable.

Hugest hugs and thank yous for all you did for our wedding. We could not be more appreciative that you were there with us. We both absolutely loved the way you handled everything on the day and talked about it many times. Your presence was joyful and calming and fit right in. You have a natural intuitive sense of where to be and how, which we really noticed and appreciated. Dave made a comment about how the best cinematographers have a quality that is hard to describe but that has to do with connection to others, reading situations, and holding space…Not to mention how great your patience and help was with all the logistical items that we were too overwhelmed to be on top of ourselves!! We planned to plug in the drives and quickly click through the footage yesterday to make sure it all worked ok technically, but we ended up spending an hour and a half glued to the screen in tears!! We are both over the moon with your work, it’s exactly what we wanted. It’s hard to believe our luck with getting you on board. All this to say — thank you!!!!

I'm William, a dedicated and passionate photographer/videographer based in Washington, DC. My love of photography was born out of my love of travel.
