Sebastien with Interstellar Films did an outstanding job on our wedding video! Each time we watch it, we have the biggest smile on our faces as we're transported to the best day of our lives.

I loved working with FilmmanVideo so much that I hired them for my own wedding. Christina is so cheerful and friendly, and she's also a very hard worker. They go into each event prepared with a vision so they know exactly what shots to capture. Christina is always quick to respond and doesn't hesitate to ask questions to ensure we are on the same page. As a wedding planner, clear communication and working with professional vendors is a must because it makes things easier for me because I can trust them. And the wedding videos they make are amazing! There is a beautiful, story-telling flow about them and I was thrilled with how artistic they made our own wedding video. All of our guests commented on how amazing the video was and that it felt like they were watching a cinematic movie. Many of our friends and family even mentioned they teared up while watching. I recommend FilmmanVideo to all of my couples seeking a videographer because they are amazing people and create beautiful work! Thank you FilmmanVideo!

We hired Brendan Reiss to film our wedding. Brendan was easy to communicate with and was able to answer all of our questions. The way Brendan filmed our wedding was truly magical. One unique thing Brendan did was filming aerial views of our wedding venue with his drone. He used top of the line equipment to film our wedding and didn’t miss any important shots. The highlight video and long video Brendan provided us was breathtaking. The videos were high quality, and the music chosen truly matched our wedding. We want to say thank you Brendan for your thoughtfulness, and flexibility working with us. The videos you made for us will be something that we cherish forever. You gave us the gift of being able to relive the happiest day of our lives. We cannot thank you enough for all that you’ve done. We highly recommend hiring Reiss Films for your next event!

Danny was the best to work with, from start to finish. When we first spoke to Danny on the phone, he was so friendly and easy to talk to. On the day of our wedding, it was the same. He genuinely had the most amazing vibe to him and made everyone feel so unbelievably comfortable - our families, bridal party, guests, and us. It honestly felt great having him around. Our parents loved him and made that very clear to us, which we completely understood, as we felt the same. He was so kind and friendly to everyone and our videos were beautiful and everything we wanted them to be. If we could go back, there is no doubt that we would choose him all over again. Thank you so much for being part of and capturing one of the most special days ever!

I am a phoenix-based wedding filmmaker fully invested in your love story. If I'm being honest, films found their way to me. I clearly remember my parents owning hundreds of VHS and us watching through all of them. There were our favorite classics like Stand By Me, Hook, or The Imitations of life. There was a singular commonality: They caused me to feel. They were raw and used the elements of storytelling at their best. Whenever I help tell your love story, I hope you can look back and feel the love.

I've photographed weddings for over 15 years it's difficult to find a videographer that is easy to work with. We all have our "shots" we want to achieve communicating with Jay is always easy. He's always a blast to work alongside I recommend him to all of my clients looking for a videographer.

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!!!

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!
