Awarded Best of Zola
It was, by far, the best use of money we spent on our amazing day. And now we can enjoy watching our beautiful day for years to come. Brent and his team were very personable, professional, and flexible, which was super important especially during these extremely challenging times that we're all in. The quality of the highlight movie, and the full film, surpasses anything I have ever seen. It is just stunning. I truly can not adequately express how super grateful I am that I found 550 Park. Brent did a phenomenal job in crafting the most joyous, emotion-filled video. I can't wait to show it to our kids one day!

First Day Films 

5.0

  • Documentary style
  • Serves Manhattan, NY

First Day Films was started with one goal in mind: to tell our clients’ stories as elegantly and unobtrusively as possible. Our films capture the events we cover precisely as they happen. Nothing artificial, nothing cheesy. We have all been to events where the video crew are the most noticeable people in the room. The bright lights, the uncomfortable interview requests… Our team of videographers believe that distractions like these put you and your guests on the spot. So we do our best to avoid them entirely.

Awarded Best of Zola
I have had the pleasure of knowing and working alongside John and his team for close to 12 years. As a full time wedding photographer I have worked with many videographers and none come close to First Day Films. Johns unobtrusive style of documenting weddings consistently delivers a stress free experience for the couple and a video that tells the story of their love and their day in the most natural and beautiful way. I highly recommend First Day Films!

1. We've been best friends since high school. We're not related and we're not dating (despite the fact that we start almost every sentence with "we") but we are allies of the LGBTQ+ community ✊🏼 2. We're from Florida originally but we currently live in Manhattan in a 2 bedroom apartment in the East Village. 3. We're into fashion, vegetarian food, and astrology. Tessa's a scorpio and Madi's a virgo ✨ 4. The only way we know how to relax is by watching The Bachelor or Love Island. Reality TV is our guilty pleasure 🙈 5. Something very unique to us is that we like to travel and we both have passports so feel free to invite us abroad with you 😉

Reel Feels is actually the best! Our photographer recommended them initially and once we saw their work we knew we needed them. We weren’t sure we had room in our budget for videography but ultimately decided that with all the time and money we were putting into the wedding it was worth having a record of it all. It was ultimately one of the best decisions we made while wedding planning. Working with Reel Feels was great from the start! Tessa was super easy to talk to and very flexible in finding a package that worked for both of us. The day of the wedding they were super professional and did an incredible job. My husband and I were probably not the easiest to work with thanks to some generous bartenders but they seem to keep their cool which helped us keep our cool. We got our teaser trailer back 2 weeks after the wedding and WOW! It was even better than we imagined! I would recommend them to EVERYONE and not just because they were the best to work with but I mean have you seen their work? They know what they are doing!

Wow, just got our wedding film back from InstillWonder and I'm honestly speechless. They didn't just film our day, they told our story. The way they captured the soft glow of the sunset during our vows, the laughter during the best man's speech, and even the tearful hug from my grandma – it was all there, woven together so beautifully. The drone shots of our venue by the lake were breathtaking, and the slow-motion capture of our first dance under the string lights made it feel like a fairy tale. Can't recommend them enough for capturing the essence and emotion of our wedding day!

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 a dream to work with during planning, leading up to and on the day of the wedding and after. She was always present yet never once felt in the way of any action, and captured all the best moments. Even over a year later I couldn't find the video, Fen emailed me back in a few hours and was able to assure me not all was lost. I HIGHLY recommend Fen, you wont be disappointed!

Margo Sees Stars

  • Documentary style
  • Starts at $4,900
  • Serves Manhattan, 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
We were on the fence about getting a videographer, partially because it seemed unnecessary and partially because we were worried that we would feel uncomfortable having a camera follow us around. But we met with Julia (Margo Sees Stars), and ultimately decided it was worth the risk. We could not be happier! Although Julia herself was booked for our wedding day, her colleague Mel was fantastic--she was friendly, unobtrusive, worked great with our photographer, and really put us with ease. And Julia's editing ability is off the charts. We opted for the package with a short teaser as well as a longer video, and both brought us to tears. We are so happy that we went with Margo Sees Stars for our special day. You will not be disappointd if you do the same!

Her smile is contagious and her communication following our wedding was impeccable. So grateful for this forever memory of our day!

Bruce was the absolute best! From our first phone call to my wedding day, he was so professional and kind. You can tell that he truly loves what he does. I’ll admit, I was a little worried about booking a videographer at first because I was afraid I’d be too focused on the camera following me around. But Bruce was so laidback and chill, I truly forgot he was there half the time. He’s able to step back and capture the memories in the most perfect way. We’ve already received some teaser clips before our big video is done and I immediately sob every time I watch them, he did a fantastic job! Highly recommend!

Hi, my name is Jenica! I'm a wedding photographer and filmmaker based in New York City. Equipped with a BFA degree in photography and documentary production, a few cameras, and an old station wagon, I drove cross country from Utah to New York City in 2010. I went back to school for my MFA in photography at Hartford Art School and graduated in 2020.

My husband and I often say that booking Jenica was the best decision we made for our wedding. She did our engagement photos, photography for our small Covid church wedding, and both photo and video for our delayed large wedding celebration. Each time we received work from her, I thought she couldn’t possibly top herself—but she always did!! Our wedding video brings me and my family to tears every time we watch it—I had been iffy on a wedding trailer but Jenica made me realize it was some of the best money I spent. She went above and beyond to include snippets from our small Covid wedding as well as our big celebration. She also collaborated with my sister in law to include a song written by my brother in law, which could not have been more special. Not to mention—Jenica and any team she brings along are always a delight to work with. When we parted ways after our third time working together, I truly felt we had built a friendship. She was a comforting presence to me on every big stressful day she photographed—I felt I could look to her for leveling and support. Through many adjusted timelines and events, she was always flexible and kind in a sea of pandemic wedding planning chaos. I could not recommend Jenica more highly to anyone who is considering—I continue to recommend her to all my friends and hope to continue to work with her for years to come!

We hired Jeremy as our wedding videographer and highly recommend him! He was extremely communicative, professional, and on top of important details. We originally had not budgeted for a videographer, but after seeing a promotion Jeremy was running, decided to reach out and inquire. I am so glad we did - Jeremy fairly worked with our budget and we were able to get raw footage for our big day! Jeremy is friendly and easy to work with. He sent relevant forms ahead of time and was available to answer questions. On the big day, he captured every moment and made the video so special. Although we only wanted raw footage as a memory, Jeremy packaged it up into a shortened film and sent it to us promptly after our wedding. We really appreciate having this special memory and would highly recommend Jeremy!
