550Park Luxury Wedding Films 

5.0

  • Documentary style
  • Serves Islip, NY

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.

We are privileged to comment on Brent's work. We were one of his first clients of the 2023 wedding season in the NYC-NJ area. As with many couples, we struggled with finding a great videographer at a reasonable price. Brent was a godsend. Brent came to meet us near where we lived. He was very realistic about how our film would come together, what was feasible and what was not. The contract was very reasonable and covered various situations. Quality: the films were excellent. Brent has worked in the videography world for many years, so he's used to adapting to changing environments and getting the best shots describing a particular moment. Interaction: Brent's interaction with us was one of utmost professionalism and warmth. He was very friendly and respectful toward all of our attendees and staff at the wedding and reception. Most of our guests were working professionals and our guests loved this guy. Attire: he was dressed just as sharp as anyone else in attendance. No worries there. Brent does the ground-work well in advance of the event - scouting the sites we were going to be at on the big day: wedding venue, scenic portrait locations, reception. He met with the primary staff there, surveyed the location for good vantage points and potential issues and let us know in advance if there were any issues he foresaw. He was respectful of the restrictions at the church wedding while managing to get all the right shots. He's the kind of professional you would want to be friends with outside of the wedding. We highly recommend Brent and would hire him for future family events. Good luck on your event!

Hi! I'm Alëna! I’ve been making videos for over 10 years now. I believe in sucking the joy out of life and documenting it. Please read more ON MY WEBSITE and ONLY INQUIRE THERE OR VIA EMAIL ONLY (not zola). I can only fit so many characters on here so please check out my links instead. I love capturing different traditions & religions AND of course documenting people in love or breaking the dance floor are my literal favs! Let's freakin' go yeah!?

Awarded Best of Zola
If you plan on having a video of your special day, Alëna is a MUST. She was so attentive through the planning process, is extremely detail oriented, and was so interested in learning exactly how we wanted our wedding captured. Day of the wedding, she had 3 cameras with her to capture different angles, and was great with making sure she caotured every moment. Both our short (4 min) trailer vid and full length wedding video were EXACTLY what I pictured. They were both edited beautifully and it was like watching a cinematic production of my life. She is genuinely the kindest human, and made my day so special. I cannot recommend her enough.

Fen Video Production

  • Documentary style
  • Starts at $1,200
  • Serves Islip, NY

Hello! My name is Fen, nice to meet you online! I’m a freelance cinematographer and editor. I split my time between shooting weddings and indie films. I enjoy doing both because I love the thrill of operating a camera and I love people and stories! I have shot over 300 weddings and I edit everything myself. In my spare time I love swimming, hiking, skiing, traveling with my family, writing and learning all kinds of stuff. I’m very curious about the world!

Awarded Best of Zola
Fen was so amazing to work with, two important things we wanted from our videographer were to have RAW footage included in our price and on our wedding day to basically not even know they were there. Fen did both of those, she was extremely reasonable with pricing and so easy going leading up to the wedding day and throughout it. Fen easily blends into the background unlike most videographers that you can find yourself bumping into on the dance floor. If you're looking for a kind, easy going and professional videographer for a more than decent price Fen is the best choice!

Hi, I'm Chad. My goal is to create something captivating that you can cherish for a lifetime, while at the same time giving you and your guests an amazing experience. My films are tailored to you, authentic to your story and your wedding.

Awarded Best of Zola
The experience we had with Chad was 10/10. I'm a bit late reviewing but Chad did our wedding in May & I can't even put into words how great he was. We knew immediately Mist & Moss was perfect for us after meeting Chad on zoom when we were first searching for vendors. We knew nothing at all about wedding planning and he made us feel totally at ease, talked us through the whole process of how the video process worked and right off the bat made us feel like friends. The day of they were the PERFECT chill (but organized) presence we needed, they were there for every second and caught every moment perfectly. The final product WAY exceeded our expectations and we cannot thank you guys enough for our memories!!

Margo Sees Stars

  • Documentary style
  • Starts at $4,900
  • Serves Islip, NY

Hi! I’m Julia, middle name Margo, a film school dropout and music buff who wants to make your wedding look like art. I'm here to represent diversity in the couples I work with and weddings I shoot (love is love), to give you something hyper-shareable that will instantly transport you in space and time for the rest of your lives, and to make you cry upon watching. The crying is very important. Bear with me on this analogy, but basically I like my wedding films like I like my salads: raw, organic, a little bit of quirk and flare, and consumed alongside great music. If this sound pretty good to you, have a look at my work and get in touch!

Awarded Best of Zola
If you want your wedding day to be captured like an art piece, like an actual movie or magical music video, hire Julia. I cannot recommend Margo Sees Stars enough! I knew I wanted a video of our big day because A) my memory (for the little details) sucks and B) I knew seeing the movement and all the sweet in-between moments in live footage would be so much more meaningful to me than just still photography. But I also am not drawn to super traditional sappy wedding video treatments. Julia took it to another level. I don't remember how I found her but she was the first vendor I booked and it was an A move and worth absolutely every penny. I fell in love with her Wes Anderson style, her eye for minimalism and fun candid moments, her editing and music choices. I felt such joy watching her videos of other peoples weddings, I couldn't imagine how good I would feel watching my own in her beautifully unique film style. Cut to my wedding day, not that this is totally mandatory but she was a complete fly on the wall. Obviously I was a bit preoccupied but I barely remember seeing her there, to the point that later on I was worried she may not have captured enough of the day because WHERE WAS SHE?! But she caught EVERY moment. Moments I was too anxious to pay attention to, or wasn't present for, or was having too much fun to remember. But I'm SO happy to be able to see them in the final video. It was 100x more than I dreamed of. Myself, my husband, our families, we all wept watching it. The music was so perfectly edited to the shots. Honestly I was anxious to pick a song without seeing the footage so I just gave her a few songs and bands I liked and the general vibe I wanted, and she completely NAILED it. She was also hugely accommodating to my editing process (I'm also a creative so I was a bit nit picky), and super communicative along the way when needed. But there was barely any need for it. You just let her do her thing and she makes absolute artistic magic. Not to mention she sends you the raw footage in an adorable package filled with Hershey's kisses and a camera-shaped USB key. I loved my wedding day but the moments are so fleeting, it goes by so quickly and then its gone forever, and it's lovely to have photographs of the day, but I'm telling you, having such a uniquely beautiful video art piece to watch when you want to smile really hits different. GO HIRE MARGO SEES STARS!

Born and raised in Ecuador, Nadia Belen moved to New Jersey at age 8 where she was raised in a cultural melting pot within close proximity to New York City. Straight out of college, she became part of a wedding collective in the New York metropolitan area as a videographer in 2019. Currently residing in Los Angeles, Nadia continues to focus on capturing raw and organic moments in everyday life through street photography, music videos, and of course wedding films.

The quality of Films by Nadia's work is truly outstanding - Nadia was incredibly detail-oriented, ensuring she got the perfect shot, and her creativity elevated our vision in ways we never could have imagined. Nadia's welcoming aura made her a pleasure to have around, and her attention to detail meant nothing had to be repeated.

I can't wait to talk with you about how we can make magic together. P.S. We are a firm believer in equality and inclusion. Love is love!

Awarded Best of Zola
We had an absolutely seamless experience with our wedding videographer from start to finish. The entire process was easy, and on the big day, they were so discreet we hardly noticed them—yet the amount of stunning content they captured was truly remarkable. The videos they produced allow us to relive our wedding day again and again, and each time it brings back the same emotions. Choosing them was the best decision we made, and we highly recommend them to anyone looking for a professional and talented videographer!

I would highly recommend Perfect Cadence Events for your DJ needs for any event! Working with Logan when booking them for our wedding was super easy. He was flexible and made time for phone calls that worked with my crazy nightshift schedule. Logan was knowledgeable about the wedding business and offered great information to questions I didn’t even know I should ask. DJ Mike worked with us for our wedding and was amazing. He was available to discuss specifics the week of our wedding and catered to all of our specific requests. He also gave great input from working many weddings before (even some at our own wedding venue!). On the day of the wedding Mike was upbeat and friendly and made sure to keep the night on track with our timeline. Mike played the best music and the dance floor was packed the entire night. Overall Perfect Cadence Events was super great to work with making the wedding planning process slightly less stressful and putting my mind at ease for our big day!

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.

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.

That's the stuff that lasts longer than a few years after your wedding. The stuff your kids will pull out and watch.

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!

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 true professionals and a huge asset to have for our wedding this year. We saw samples of their work and immediately wanted our wedding to be captured in that light. It was definitely a fresher feel for videography. On our wedding day, it rained for a good part. KS Media Productions (along with our photographer) worked together to come up with great shots to capture the special moments of our wedding despite the weather. The improvisation KS Media had was phenomenal. Our photographer also had the highest of praises for them when it came to working with them on the professional side and communication side. We couldn't have asked for anyone better than KS Media Productions. We can not wait to see the final product, but I can tell you that we 100% recommend KS Media Productions for any event. Thank you Kristi and KS Media Productions for making our wedding amazing and we hope nothing but the best for you as you start your next chapter in life! Thank you again!
